The biggest match in ICC World Cup history, India vs Pakistan Mega Match Today in Narendra Modi Stadium Ahmedabad. Rohit Sharma’s balance, Virat Kohli’s passion and Jasprit Bumrah’s artistry will give India a strong victory against Pakistan in the World Cup match to be held here on Saturday. However, this match also has a socio-political context and its impact will extend beyond the 22-yard pitch. Team India, which has won 7 consecutive matches in the ICC ODI World Cup, would like to win its eighth match this time too. For this, their star batsmen and bowlers will show their talent in Rohit Sharma’s form, Virat Kohli’s continuous good performance against Pakistan and Bhumrah’s fast pace will be successful in this.
Shaheen and the rain threat on the Indian team
On paper, India is a much better team and has many stars in the batting line-up and from Pakistan’s point of view, the first spell of left-arm fast bowler Shahen Shah Afridi will be very important.
This is a match where emotional aspects also play a role and it has played a vital role in the last few years. And it has produced equal numbers of heroes and villains over the years.
Shaheen means king of birds in Urdu and Rohit will have no objection to getting his wings clipped soon in the grand stadium with a capacity of 132,000. A strong platform is ready for players like Kohli, Shreyas Iyer and Lokesh Rahul.
It will be difficult for Pakistan also due to the lack of quality spinners. Pakistan’s vice-captain Shadab Khan has given 100 runs in 16 overs in the two matches and with the bowler Hasan Ali, it can be an easy target for the Indians. The second spinner should also not be mentioned, who has been Pakistan’s weak link till now.
Mohammad Rizwan performed brilliantly against Sri Lanka and Abdullah Shafiq showed his level. Saud Shakeel can change the course of the match any day but Pakistan’s batting is dependent on its captain Babar Azam whose form has declined recently, hence it is also very important for him to contribute to the team with his batting.
Babar’s clash with Kuldeep Yadav will be exciting. Rizwan and Safeel will know that scoring runs against Bumrah and Siraj could be more of a challenge than beating Pathirana. The only question India wants answered now is whether Ravichandran Ashwin will be replaced Should we play him or Shardul Thakur because both are contenders to play at number eight?
