KOLKATA (Reuters) - Pakistan have never defeated India in a World Cup match but coach Waqar Younis is confident his team can break the jinx against the hosts who are smarting from a thumping defeat against New Zealand in their tournament opener.

A defeat against their arch-rivals on Saturday at the Eden Gardens will push India towards an early exit from the World Twenty20 and Waqar feels it will be the best chance for Pakistan to end their poor record against their neighbours.
