New Delhi. Team India, captained by Rohit Sharma, will take on the Pakistan team captained by Babar Azam on Sunday. Both the teams will face each other for the 8th time in the history of the T20 World Cup. The Indian team defeated Ireland in its first match at Nassau County Stadium in New York, while Pakistan's morale was broken by host America in the very first match. There is a lot of enthusiasm in both the countries about this high-voltage match. Will captain Rohit Sharma want to make changes in his playing 11 in the match against Pakistan? So the answer to this would be, probably not.
Virat Kohli can be seen opening with Rohit Sharma against Pakistan as well. Of course, he failed to open against Ireland, but his record against Pakistan (IND vs PAK) is excellent. Wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav may have to sit on the bench in the match against Pakistan as well. Because with Virat opening, India can give more opportunities to all-rounders. Being an all-rounder, Akshar Patel can again be given preference over Kuldeep Yadav.
Bowlers have maintained their dominance on the New York pitch
So far, bowlers have dominated the New York pitch. In such a situation, depth in Team India's batting order can prove to be beneficial. If the Indian team comes out with the same playing eleven as in the match against Ireland, then once again young opener Yashasvi Jaiswal will have to sit out. In the high voltage match against Pakistan, Akshar will be preferred over Kuldeep because his presence will add depth to the batting. So far, teams have been seen struggling to cross the 100 mark on this wicket.
India's probable playing-11 against Pakistan
India: Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma (captain), Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), Suryakumar Yadav, Shivam Dubey, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh, Mohammed Siraj.
