42: What must Pakistan do to reach the World Cup semi-finals?

This week on The Cricket Pod, sports writer Kritika Naidu talks in depth about England's Cricket World Cup victory against India at Edgbaston on Sunday – and what both teams can learn from the match going forward. Have the tournament hosts regained momentum ahead of this week's must-win match against New Zealand? Is there a risk of India losing steam at a crucial stage of the competition? Have England found their ideal XI, or would they go with a 'horses for courses' policy while picking sides? And must India have a think on their batting order? Also in this episode: What must Pakistan do to edge past England or New Zealand and reach the last four? Can we expect teams to play Twenty20-style cricket as net run-rates come into play? And will Bangladesh fancy their chances of doing the improbable? Sports editor Graham Caygill and host Chitrabhanu Kadalayil discuss the most likely semi-final scenarios Kadalayil provides his take on why veteran India wicketkeeper MS Dhoni should retire after the World Cup.
