India and Pakistan (IND vs PAK) are preparing to clash once more. Last Sunday, the two teams met in the Asia Cup group stage. Super-4 will now clash once more. This game will take place at the Dubai International Stadium. Both teams are dealing with injuries ahead of this match. Ravindra Jadeja, India’s all-rounder, has been ruled out of the tournament due to injury. Moreover, Pakistan’s fast bowler Shahnawaz Dahani is injured.
India’s starting XI
The Indian team’s starting lineup could undergo significant changes. Ravindra Jadeja has been replaced by Axar Patel in the team. He is eligible to play in this game. At the same time, the team has no fast bowling options to replace Avesh Khan. He is suffering from viral fever. Off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin may be given a chance in such a situation. He was left out of the starting XI in the first two games.
The biggest question, however, is about Hardik Pandya. In the match against Hong Kong, he was rested. He will make a comeback in this game. So, who will be the first to go? Rishabh Pant was given the opportunity to fill in for him. But KL Rahul is still dealing with the bat.
In such a case, Hardik may be given a chance in place of Rahul. Suryakumar Yadav or Rishabh Pant can bat first alongside Rohit Sharma.
Pakistan’s playing XI
Pakistan Shahnawaz Dahani has been injured. He is not out of the Asia Cup, but he will be unable to play in this exciting match between India and Pakistan. Pakistan has two options for his replacement. Hasan Ali, a veteran fast bowler, and Mohammad Hasnain, a young fast bowler. Hasnain has the advantage of momentum, but Hasan Ali brings experience. Pakistan can only give him a chance in the starting XI due to his experience. Despite his lackluster form, he can still be seen playing. Aside from that, there has been no change in the Pakistan team.
