India Vs Pakistan – It is not just a game of cricket but an ocean of emotions of countless fans from both the countries. Since the two teams only meet at ICC events amid the current geopolitical situation, the potential for clashes is always high. After more than two years, the arch-rivals are all set to clash once again in the ongoing T20 World Cup. The game is set to be played in Dubai, but fans around the world will be eyeing it. Both India and Pakistan have nominated a mix of experienced and young players for the mega event. However, only eleven players will take the field on Sunday. The final line-up will be revealed at the toss, but till then, let’s take a look at some of the key battles that are expected to enthrall the audience.

Virat Kohli vs Shadab Khan
India captain Virat is a master of his craft but has often fallen prey to leg-spinners. Pakistan have a magician in Shadab Khan who weaves a web of mist around batsmen who fail to read the turning ball. Can Kohli surprise Shadab on Sunday? Or it will go south for the Indian captain, we will wait and see.
Jasprit Bumrah vs Babar Azam
Captain Babar is currently the poster boy of Pakistan Cricket. Win or lose, the captain is the one who is always in the limelight. He has been in excellent form, especially in the shortest format in which he has scored over 2200 runs. To deal with that, India will have to bring their frontline pacer Jasprit Bumrah into action. The right-arm pacer recently did well in IPL 2021 and the way Azam was undone by Kagiso Rabada in the practice game, pace will be the tool to restrict him.
India-Pakistan T20 World Cup match against national interest: Ramdev
Mohammad Hafeez vs Ravindra Jadeja
It will be interesting to see when the two best Asian all-rounders go up against each other. Hafeez brings with him the experience of playing 5 World Cups and is a vital force in Pakistan’s line-up. Jadeja, on the other hand, is as quick as a bolt of lightning and his cleverness is unmatched. It will be a great encounter between youth and experience.
Rohit Sharma vs Shaheen Shah Afridi
Another thrilling clash in which we will see the best Asian opener take on a young left arm fast bowler who has risen to success in no time. Rohit has the technique and experience while Shaheen has the youthful pace and enthusiasm with which he is already threatening to displace some of the game’s modern greats. It is true that Rohit has a problem against left-arm fast bowlers which he needs to focus on. And either way, Shaheen bowls a short delivery to Rohit, you can’t ask for anything more than a powerful hitman pull shot.
Fakhar Zaman vs Mohammed Shami
Neither Indian nor Pakistani fans could forget the innings that Fakhar Zaman played in the final of the ICC Champions Trophy 2017. It’s safe to say that the Indians got to know him only after the knock that spoiled the party for the Men in Blue. But, it is a bygone era and the Indian bowling unit has improved by leaps and bounds since then. One of the flag bearers of this department is Mohammed Shami who will work hard for the Pakistan batsmen. Eventually, he will face a man who has taken a hat-trick in the 50-over World Cup.
These are some of the rivalries that will be on display in Dubai on Sunday. But we all know that there is a lot more to the India vs Pakistan match. Let’s get ready for the action and try not to miss it because in the time we live in, such matches happen once in a blue moon!
