Dubai: Cricket fans are waiting to see the India-Pakistan clash in the Asia Cup. Fans will be waiting to see who will have the last laugh when the two teams meet for the first time since last year’s T20 World Cup. It was Pakistan who came back with a ten-wicket win when they met head-to-head in the T20 World Cup at the same ground 10 months ago.
Shaheen Afridi, who destroyed India that time, is not in the Pakistan line-up this time. Afridi became the villain before the injury. On the other hand, Jasprit Bumrah, who led the pace bowling that day, is not in the Indian line-up. After the World Cup defeat, India are in brilliant form under the new captain Rohit Sharma. Pakistan, on the other hand, is mainly hoping for Captain Babar in Assam. Former Indian captain Kapil Dev is predicting who will be the most likely in the match in this situation.

Kapil said that although India is strong on paper, it will be the performance on the ground that will decide the outcome of the match. Kapil said on his YouTube channel that India was a better team than Pakistan even when they entered the T20 World Cup last year.
In T20 cricket you can’t say anything for sure. ODI cricket results are somewhat predictable. But T20 is not like that. Our team is the best in terms of experience. But still, we should not forget that when we faced Pakistan in the last World Cup, we were better than them in terms of experience,” Kapil said.

Even if we look at the figures, we are far ahead. However, Kapil said that the result of the match will depend on how each team plays on the respective day. Captain Rohit Sharma said yesterday that India will forget the defeat against Pakistan in last year’s World Cup and start a new beginning.
