Virat Kohli remains a key player for India, said head coach Rahul Dravid, who is happy with the refreshed former captain's Asia Cup form and said people should not get hung up with statistics.
Asia Cup. Pakistan have also been hit by multiple injuries, while India suffered a blow when all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja was ruled out of the tournament with a knee injury earlier. Axar Patel has replaced Jadeja in the Indian squad and is expected to play tonight vs Pakistan. While India have more experience and the more well balanced squad the Pakistan pacers, though not very experienced, are more than capable of troubling the best of batters. The Men in Green though suffered another injury blow ahead of their Super 4 clash vs India with young pacer Shahnawaz Dahani being ruled out of this match with a side strain. Either Hasan Ali or Mohammad Hasnanin are likely to replace Dahani in the Pakistan playing XI. Hasan Ali is the more experienced pacer, but Hasnain is quicker.
Pakistan clash. The two sub-continental heavyweights will clash tonight for a second time in the ongoing Asia Cup. This time it will be in the crucial Super 4s stage. India and Pakistan are the favourites also to play each other in the final. The rivalry is a storied one and has produced some of the most unforgettable cricket action over the decades. But often, especially in recent times, an India vs Pakistan clash hasn't lived up to the hype that it generates, producing almost one-sided affairs. The league stage match in the Asia Cup this time though was a reminder of just how exciting this contest can be, with India pulling off a 5 wicket win, with 2 balls left.
Excited to face arch-rivals India for the second time in the Asia Cup on Sunday, Pakistan wicketkeeper-batter Mohammad Rizwan said his team-mates had joked each other that it's a "best of three-match series" between the two sides in the ongoing continental tournament. India and Pakistan can still face in the summit clash here on September 11 whatever the outcome of the match on Sunday and that will make the arch-rivals face each other three times -- all of them on Sundays. India had beaten Pakistan by five wickets last Sunday.
The ongoing edition of the Asia Cup is witnessing cut-throat competition and it is living upto the hype as the matches are doing down to the wire. With some thrilling matches to many heartfelt moments, cricket fans are getting to witness all the emotions. Cricket has always been a sport which has also showcased many on-field rivalries and heated arguments between the players, due to the intensity of the game. One such incident took place on Saturday, during the Asia Cup, Super 4 clash between Afghanistan and Sri Lanka, where spinner Rashid Khan was seen getting involved in an altercation with batter Danushka Gunathilaka.
India and Pakistan will square off for the second time in the ongoing Asia Cup 2022, but this would be in the Super 4s stage at the Dubai International Stadium. Earlier, Rohit Sharma and co had gotten the better of Pakistan by five wickets in the Group A clash. However, this match will be a different ball game as Pakistan thrashed Hong Kong by more than 150 runs in their previous clash.
Rahul Dravid said on Saturday that Ravindra Jadeja cannot be ruled out of the T20 World Cup slated for October this year in Australia. The star all-rounder is already out of the ongoing Asia Cup due to knee injury. Another high-octane India versus Pakistan clash is set for Sunday, as both arch-rivals will be looking to make the best out of their opening Super Four match of Asia Cup 2022.
