Ind Vs Pak: What To Expect?
India and Pakistan both are in the phase of getting their World Cup 11 together. And Asia Cup is the perfect tournament for that.
Pakistan is currently the number 1 team in the ODIs and will love to carry that momentum. Even their skipper, Babar Azam who was struggling with the form is now back.
In fact, Babar Azam was the main difference in the previous game against Nepal. What an innings was that. Scoring 150 against any opponent is not easy and this will give a positive approach to their team.
India on the other hand is also looking solid. All the players have played enough cricket to win any high-pressure games. With a top-heavy batting lineup under the likes of Rohit Sharma and Kohli, India will expect a good start.
Hardik and Jadeja also have been doing their role very significantly. Also, Kuldeep, Shami, and Bumrah know how to get the crucial wickets.
Overall, it will be a perfect battle to watch out for.
