Team India is all geared up for the high voltage Asia Cup clash against Pakistan on Sunday. Like always, this clash is also going to grab all the attention from the cricket fans because of the rivalry between the two teams.

In recent years, India have had an answer to every question posed by Pakistan in multilateral events, right up until last year's T20 World Cup, when it was the men in green who triumphed instead in dominant fashion. TOI traces past contests and looks at how history might impact today's match...One hundred and fifty two for no loss in 17. 5 overs. Certain numbers hurt you like no other if you are an Indian cricket tragic. It was Pakistan's uncharacteristically composed riposte to an underwhelming 151/7 by India in the 2021 T20 World Cup opener in Dubai's Ring of Fire. Heavy dew during their chase was an able ally for the men in green as they beat their dispirited and stunned rivals. Skipper Babar Azam and deputy Mohammed Rizwan underlined the domination that was triggered by Shaheen Shah Afridi's quick, lethal twin strikes that consumed Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul.

India vs Pakistan: Best of the Asia Cup

Roger Binny and Ravi Shastri then helped bowl Pakistan out for just 134 in 39.4 overs. Khanna effected two stumpings too. Scores: Ind 188-4 in 46 overs (Surinder Khanna 56, Sandeep Patil 43, Sunil Gavaskar 36*) beat Pak 134 in 39. 4 overs (Mohsin Khan 35; Roger Binny 3-33, Ravi Shastri 3-40) by 54 runs

The tourists were bowled out for 151 and 179 and lost inside three days, which followed their own innings and 12 run win at in the first Test at Lord’s last week. With the deciding fixture at The Oval starting on Sept. 8, there is plenty of time for reflection. "You can go into panic mode when these things happen, but the coach (Mark Boucher) and I are not those types of guys," Elgar said. "We are here to win a Test series and we're still in a position to do that."
