Pakistan in a must-win situation

Pakistan enters the game under pressure after losing their tournament opener against New Zealand in Karachi. Chasing 321, the Mohammed Rizwan-led side fell short by 60 runs despite half-centuries from Babar Azam and Khushdil Shah.

Moreover, Pakistan suffered a significant setback as opener Fakhar Zaman was ruled out of the tournament due to injury.

In his place, Imam-ul-Haq has been drafted into the squad for the remainder of the matches.

India, on the other hand, started their campaign with a dominant victory over Bangladesh. Fast bowler Mohammed Shami took a five-wicket haul, while Shubman Gill’s unbeaten century guided India to a comfortable win.

With both teams aiming for a crucial victory, the clear weather sets the stage for an uninterrupted contest between the arch-rivals.
