Kolkata, Mar 18 (IBNS): Pakistan coach Waqar Younis on Friday said his side will have good chance to win Saturday's crucial match against hosts India if they can repeat the performance put against Bangladesh.

"Hopefully, if we repeat the way we played last match then we have good chances tomorrow," Younis said while addressing the press conference here.

"We hope that we will deliver good tomorrow," he said,

He said the pressure is on Indian team after they were defeated in their first match of the World T20.

"I am feeling that India has an added pressure after being defeated in the first match," the former Pakistan skipper said.

Appreciating his bowlers, Younis said: "We have got a pace attack who can change game in an over."

He said he is confident about Pakistani batting after the performance in the first match against Bangladesh.

"We are feeling confident after scoring 200 runs in the last game. The batsmen are in good form," he said.

"Shahid Afridi is back in the form and I am sure he will perform the same way this time," he said.

Younis  said both the side are balanced.

India and Pakistan will face each other in a crucial World T20 match on Saturday. India defeated Pakistan in their last encounter recently in the Asia Cup.
