The much-awaited clash in the T20 World Cup is finally upon us. Team India is set to take on Pakistan in today’s high-octane encounter.
As one would expect, the match between India and Pakistan is the main highlight of the tournament, as a whole.
The match will be played at Dubai International Stadium. As per expert analysis, the team winning the toss could be electing to bowl first, given the due factor. The pitch will be a two-paced one and the optimal score that will be in the mind of the team batting first would be around 15-160.
Chasing will be comparatively easier on this ground as the wicket will ease up a bit as the game proceeds. That said, given Pakistan’s abysmal record while chasing, we can expect team India to bat first if we win the toss.
The match will be kickstarting at 7:30 PM IST.
The squads are:
India Squad: Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli(c), Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant(w), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah, Rahul Chahar, Shardul Thakur, Ishan Kishan, Varun Chakaravarthy
Pakistan Squad: Babar Azam(c), Mohammad Rizwan(w), Fakhar Zaman, Mohammad Hafeez, Shoaib Malik, Asif Ali, Imad Wasim, Shadab Khan, Hasan Ali, Haris Rauf, Shaheen Afridi, Haider Ali
