All eyes are on India vs Pakistan blockbuster clash in Dubai as the two arch-rivals get ready to battle it out in their opening match of the Super 12 stage of the ongoing T20 World Cup 2021.
Team India hopes to seal a win and get their campaign off to a good start. For India, Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant and Virat Kohli, the skipper himself will hold key, while Pakistan will be expecting a lot from their bowling attack which includes the likes of Shaheen Afridi and Shadab Khan.
Mohammad Rizwan has been in stellar form for Pakistan along with captain Babar. The experienced duo of Shoaib Malik and Mohammad Hafeez are expected to start the match too. For India Jasprit Bumrah will hold the key in the bowling department while it remains to be seen what kind of a spin attack Kohli goes into this high pressure match with.
