Consequently, the ICC tournament match between the adversaries is eagerly anticipated. This mega-event generates a record amount of revenue for the worldwide cricket authorities. Since the 2012/13 bilateral series, the two nations have played 12 ICC and ACC matches. Pakistan has the third position in T20 Internationals.

The champions of the tri-series qualify for the mega-event. After winning the T20I home series against Australia and South Africa, India’s confidence increased. Fans of Pakistan will never forget the previous tournament’s opening match. Pakistan defeated India in Dubai by 10 wickets, ending a fourteen-year losing run.

The powerful Indian bowling assault was smashed by Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan’s opening partnership. Both pitchers threw perfect innings. In 2017 T20 World Cup, Pakistan’s dangerous bowling unit will be put to the test.

Afridi is back for IND VS PAK 

Since Shaheen’s return, Pakistan’s bowling assault has become more menacing and extensive. In their earlier encounter in the T20 World Cup, Shaheen demolished India’s openers. Haris Rauf is in excellent form and is diligently striving to enhance his fast and slow-ball variations, especially in death overs.

He has also been instrumental in Pakistan’s recent series victory.Haris is familiar with Australian conditions because he participated in the Big Bash League. Naseem Shah, one of the most potent fast bowlers, may offer a threat to India’s courageous batting.

Pakistan’s T20 World Cup bowlers Mohammad Hasnain and Mohammad Wasim junior are important. However, the absence of Bumrah and Jadeja was detrimental to India. Rohit will rely on the expertise of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Mohammad Shami, but India’s record against death bowling is worrisome.
