IND vs PAK Match Prediction: India and Pakistan are going to fight again in a matchup that is sure to be exciting. The game is always a big deal, and fans of both teams make this matchup a party. In terms of the teams, Pakistan seems to be in good shape now that Shaheen Afridi is back. Also, a few of the middle-order batters did their part in the New Zealand tri-series that just ended. India, on the other hand, will be without fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah, who is out with a back spasm. This is a big worry about the Indian death bowling, but Shami looked good in the warm-up game against Australia.

India vs Pakistan Pitch Report
The Melbourne Cricket Ground is an old place to play cricket. Most of the time, the pitch in Melbourne has a nice pace and bounce, but the batters do get something out of their shots. So, basically, both the batters and the bowlers can play well on it. But at this venue, spinners don’t really have much to do. The weather report says that there is an 80-100% chance of rain. We could only hope and pray that it doesn’t rain on one of the most important games of the tournament.
The previous venue’s final outcome
Australia lost to Sri Lanka by 5 wickets (154/6 in 20 overs vs. 155/5 in 19.5 overs).

IND Playing 11
India has chosen Md Shami to take Jasprit Bumrah’s place. So, he gets to join the team right away. The fight between Karthik and Pant seems to be coming to an end. Based on his recent play, the team management seems to want to give Dinesh Karthik a chance instead of Pant.
A lot would depend on their top order, which is one of their strengths, but they would need to fix their problems with death bowling.

PAK Playing 11
Pakistan has been in good form lately, with some strong performances in the tri series that just ended. Their batters, like Babar and Rizwan, are the most important parts of their team. For their team to win, one of the two has to stay until the end. But the middle order is still a worry because not many people have stepped up in times of trouble to save their team.
After getting hurt, Fakhar Zaman is back. Pakistan’s fast bowling options have always been good, and with Shaheen Shah Afridi on board, they can only get better. Pakistan has one of the best bowling lines in the tournament, according to some.
- Babar Azam (c)
- Md Rizwan
- Fakhar Zaman
- Md Nawaz
- Iftikhar Ahmed
- Shadab Khan
- Asif Ali
- Harris Rauf
- Naseem Shah

Md Rizwan T20I Stats
Rizwan is ranked number one in the world. What makes him stand out is that he can sometimes help his team out of trouble. His consistency is admirable, and Pakistan would again be counting on him to do well in the World Cup.
