India take on Pakistan on Sunday in what promises to be a highly entertaining match in the group stage of the ongoing T20 World Cup in New York. All eyes will be on Rohit Sharma and co as they look to continue their winning streak after beating Ireland in the opening match, while Pakistan will be looking to repeat their win after losing to co-hosts USA in their opening match.
Kuldeep Yadav is expected to be included in the playing XI and could be a key player for the team. His matchup with Babar Azam will be a sight to behold. This also means that either Akshar Patel or Ravindra Jadeja could find themselves on the bench. Rohit and Virat Kohli are expected to start for Team India with Rishabh Pant taking the third slot.
After Pakistan’s loss to the United States, Babar blamed his team’s bowlers. The conditions have already proven favourable for the seamers, as Jasprit Bumrah showed, so we may see Shaheen Shah Afridi and Pakistan’s pace battery get back in form on Sunday.
