Dubai: Traditional rivals Pakistan and India will face each other in the second match of the Asia Cup 2022.
Cricket fans are desperate to watch the Pakistan-India match, while the captains of both teams are encouraging their respective teams. Last year, Pakistan defeated India by 10 wickets in the T20 World Cup.

The national team is already reeling from injuries to key bowlers Shaheen Afridi and Wasim Juniors while Hasan Ali will also not be included in the playing XI against India. There is a strong possibility that young fast bowler Shah Nawaz Dhani will be included in the team in his place.
The Pakistan team will be led by Babar Azam while the Indian team will be captained by Rohit Sharma.
While the national team is determined to win the match against India, bowling coach Saqlain Mushtaq has also said that all players are professionals, they don’t care about summer or winter. Our players know how to be eco-friendly, our fast bowlers are classy and confident and have been performing well for a long time.
