The Indian men’s cricket team will come face to face against arch-rivals Pakistan in its second Group A match of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on Sunday.
The IND vs PAK T20 World Cup 2024 match is scheduled to start at 8:00 PM IST. Live streaming and live telecast will be available in India.
Both India and Pakistan are former T20 World Cup winners. India famously beat Pakistan in the final at Johannesburg to become the inaugural champions in 2007 while the Men in Green won the subsequent edition in 2009.
However, neither side has won the trophy since. Pakistan made the final at the last edition in 2022 but eventually lost out.
Both India and Pakistan are coming into the fixture on the back of contrasting starts to their respective T20 World Cup 2024 campaigns.
With captain Rohit Sharma leading from the front, India comfortably outplayed Ireland by eight wickets in their opening Group A match in New York while Babar Azam’s Pakistan suffered a shock loss in Super Over to the USA in Dallas.
The result puts the onus on Pakistan to win Sunday’s contest as a loss to their arch-rivals may just make their progress to the Super 8 very difficult.
The tricky nature of the Nassau County pitch, however, may favour Pakistani seamers slightly. The surface has showcased plenty of lateral movement and uneven bounce and a low-scoring match may be on the offing.
The India vs Pakistan cricket match, interestingly, could have three of the top run scorers in T20I cricket history on show. Babar Azam currently leads the charts with 4067 runs from 120 matches with Virat Kohli (4038 runs in 118 matches) and Rohit Sharma (4026 in 152 matches) closely on his heels.
Virat Kohli, however, is the most successful batter in India vs Pakistan T20 World Cup matches, having scored 308 runs in five innings against the Men in Green in the ICC competition.
As the cricketing calendar comes full circle, the electrifying clash between arch-rivals India and Pakistan takes center stage once again, this time in the bustling metropolis of New York. The anticipation surrounding this epic showdown between two Asian giants is enough to captivate fans worldwide, but there's an added layer of excitement as all eyes turn to Indian vice-captain Hardik Pandya for a myriad of compelling reasons.
Pandya has weathered a tough IPL season and faced significant criticism for his performance as an all-rounder, particularly upon his return to the Mumbai Indians, where he also replaced Rohit Sharma as captain. However, when he dons the national jersey and faces Pakistan, the 30-year-old has often risen to the occasion in past encounters
After Pakistan's defeat vs USA, Babar blamed his side's bowlers. The conditions have already proved useful for seamers, as shown by Jasprit Bumrah. So, we could see Shaheen Shah Afridi and Pakistan's pace battery get back to form on Sunday.
