India take on Pakistan for the second time in this Asia Cup campaign on Sunday at the Dubai International Stadium. India had come out on top the last time the two teams met, at the same venue a week earlier, but will have to make some adjustments to their team with Ravindra Jadeja out injured. Jadeja played a crucial role in India's win, as he was the only left-hander in the lineup to counter Mohammad Nawaz's left-arm spin and Shadab Khan's legspin.

"Best Of Three-Match Series": Mohammad Rizwan On Facing India In Asia Cup

"Can't Continue": Former Pacer Slams Indian Top 3's "Lackadaisical Approach" In T20Is

The Indian T20 team's top order has come under criticism recently as they have failed to really fire. The top order batters have either not been able to put on big scores or have scored too sedately, and they have in recent times been helped by the fireworks provided by the middle-order players like Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya.

India and Pakistan face off for the second time in eight days at the ongoing Asia Cup in the UAE. Both teams met last Sunday during the Group stage and it was India who won the battle of nerves to edge out Pakistan by five wickets. Pakistan needed a win against Hong Kong in order to reach the Super 4 stage, and the Babar Azam-led side did that in some style. After posting a total of 193 for two, Pakistan bowlers bulldozed past Hong Kong's batting order, and skittled them out for a paltry total of 38.
