Hasan Ali is back in the squad, but wasn’t originally picked following an underwhelming year with the ball, and in Shahnawaz Dahani and Naseem Shah, Pakistan have two quicks with a combined experience of 2 T20Is. Babar Azam needs to be accurate with his left-armer-less bowling combinations, while leggie Shadab Khan too needs to hit the ground running in what will be his first T20I appearance since December 2021.
When: India vs Pakistan, Asia Cup 2022 Group A 2nd Match; 06:00 PM Local time, 07:30 PM IST
Where: Dubai International Cricket Stadium
What to expect: The impact of dew, that messes with teams that have to bowl second. India however, have trained for such an eventuality by choosing to bat first whenever possible since they last played there. In 16 T20Is after the 2021 World Cup, India have won 12 and lost just 3 in 16 games where they’ve batted first.
Head to head: In Asia Cups, India have a superior 8-5 win-loss record against Pakistan. Since 2010, India have won five of the six Asia Cup meetings between the two sides.
