IND vs PAK Match Preview:
India and Pakistan will be facing each other for the second time in this tournament. The last time they faced each other, the match was completely overshadowed by the ‘no handshake’ episode. India maintained a no-handshake stand throughout the match due to the Pahalgam terror attack earlier this year.

Following the incident, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) threatened to pull out of the competition if match referee Andy Pycroft was not removed. In the end, their demand was turned out but they decided to continue in the competition.

Both the teams will now be keen to focus only on cricket and register a win in the crucial match. Earlier in the tournament, India defeated Pakistan with utmost ease.
The Men in Blue had outplayed the Men in Green in all the departments and will be the favourites for the upcoming match as well.
India had some worrying moments against Oman earlier this week and will be looking to ensure that they do not repeat those mistakes.
Pakistan, on the other hand, would be taking notes from India’s not-so impressive performance against Oman and will be looking to avenge the loss they suffered earlier in the tournament.
