NEW DELHI: On February 7, The Greatest Rivalry: India vs Pakistan will be available on Netflix, ready to rekindle all of the fervour, pride, and excitement that have made India-Pakistan cricket matches a classic.
The drama, emotion, and high-stakes intensity of this showdown are examined in this series on both countries’ domestic soils. One can expect suspenseful finales, memorable sixes, and the kind of drama that keeps one on the edge of their seats.
This documentary is as current as it is ageless since it not only explores an exciting tale of sport and history but also piques viewers’ curiosity.
The documentary features legends like Virender Sehwag and Sourav Ganguly to the little-known tales of the inaugural India-Pakistan ODI. The series features mysteries revealed by Sunil Gavaskar and Shoaib Akhtar as well.
Experience history up close, or as Sehwag puts it, “Jab bhi Bharat Pakistan ka Muqabala hota hai, yeh battle hoti hai – war hoti hai ground ke andar jo dono teams jeetna chahti hai.” (“Whenever India and Pakistan play, it is a battle – a war on the ground that both teams want to win.”)
Beyond the field, the show explores the intimate tales, underlying cultural themes, and unfiltered feelings that drive one of the most intense rivalries in history.
The series has interviews with Virender Sehwag, Sourav Ganguly, Sunil Gavaskar, Ravichandran Ashwin, Shoaib Akhtar, Waqar Younis, Javed Miandad and Inzamam-ul-Haq.
India’s next assignment against Pakistan is in the ICC Champions Trophy. The two rivals will meet in the neutral location of Dubai on February 23 after India refused to travel to Pakistan due to security concerns.
