Karan, You will have both a forward and a backward traveling waves induced on the victim line from the aggressor line. The forward or far end (fext) crosstalk will arrive at the same time as the aggressor pulse if the lines are of equal length. The backward or near end (next) crosstalk will arrive at the near end of the line for up to 2 delays of the couple section. This is because the aggressor wave will couple to the victim line as it travels down the line (the first delay), and the NEXT signal on the victim line will have propagate back (the second delay). Much of the timing or frequency response of a crosstalk phenomena depends on how much coupling you have and the length of the coupled segment. In general, since there will be a forward and a backward traveling wave induced on the victim line, you will, by first principles, have both a forward and a backward current component on the victim line. Hope this helps.
