India will be squaring up against Pakistan in match 16 of the T20 World Cup 2021 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai. The match will commence on Sunday, October 24 at 07:30 PM IST. Here are our IND vs PAK Dream11 predictions, preview, squad, and predicted XI.
IND vs PAK Dream11 Predictions: Preview
Will India’s World Cup domination over Pakistan continue?
India hold a 5-0 record in T20 World Cup matches against Pakistan. They have an overall World Cup record of 12-0 across both formats. India have a psychological advantage against Pakistan, especially in the World Cups. They walk into this tournament as one of the favourites. Most of the Indian players have had recent experience playing in the UAE. This will help them counter Pakistan’s familiarities with the conditions here. India’s balance helps them have an edge over Pakistan who are yet to find their perfect XI.
Can Pakistan break their World Cup jinx?
Pakistan were the superior of the two teams in the 20th century. But at the turn of this century, the tables have certainly turned. Pakistan are playing catchup cricket owing to their limited exposure recently. Their T20 team boasts of fine individual talents but they are not tested frequently at the highest level. Pakistan have to fight not just form but expectations, and pressure to excel in the World Cup. Their biggest hurdle lies at the very first step in form of India against whom they have an abysmal World Cup record.
