On Sunday, the Asia Cup 2022 Super 4 stage will feature the second clash between arch-rivals India and Pakistan. The long-standing cricketing rivalry between these two countries is what makes the Indo-Pak contests so exciting.
India has been in excellent form in this competition, winning both of its league stage games. Their batting has been their greatest asset. Virat Kohli’s comeback to form could be vital in this match once again.
Pakistan, on the other hand, defeated Hong Kong by a large margin of 155 runs in their second league stage game to advance to the Super 4 stage. Their bowlers finished Hong Kong’s innings at 38 runs. Their bowling has been their strongest suit in this format, and they will rely on their primary bowlers to carry them through this game as well.
India defeated Pakistan by 5 wickets in their most recent match. Pakistan will be anxious to avenge its defeat, while India will be looking to maintain their supremacy in this encounter. On Sunday, another exciting game of cricket is scheduled here.
India vs Pakistan: Pitch Report
The Dubai International Cricket Stadium does not lend itself well to aggressive batting. T he straight boundaries in Dubai are short which gives the batter an advantage. There is also considerable seam movement and bounce here. The spinner receives little aid on this surface.
