The ongoing ICC Cricket World Cup has seen some of the mouthwatering matches but the most awaited clash of the tournament is between India and Pakistan. India will play against their arch-rival Pakistan on June 16 at Old Trafford, Manchester.

Both the countries are doing their best to cash in on the match as several advertisements related to the clash is being telecast in India and Pakistan. Indian broadcaster recently came out with an ad where they are taking a jibe at Pakistan as it is father’s day on June 16. While Pakistani broadcaster released a 33-second video which mocks IAF pilot Abhinandan Varthaman who was captured in the country.
