IND vs PAK
The Asia Cup 2023 is being held in Pallekele, Sri Lanka. India’s captain, Rohit Sharma, won the toss and decided to bat first for his team’s opening match against Pakistan. In the second game of Group A of the competition, the Men in Blue take on Pakistan. Rohit Sharma chose his team at the toss, whereas Pakistan released their lineup a day before the game.
Ishan Kishan and Shubman Gill will both be playing for India; however, Suryakumar Yadav and Mohammed Shami will not. In a three-man pace assault, the Men in Blue decided to go with Shardul Thakur as well as Hardik Pandya as a fourth seam option.
“We’ll take the opening pitch. Although there is some weather in the area, it is difficult to focus on it. You must play good cricket, accept the task, and accept the circumstances. After the West Indies series, we had some downtime. In Bangalore, everyone was eager to take on the challenges and drills. Let’s see what we can do during this competition. The competition is excellent, and the tournament is as well. At the end of the day, we need to assess our collective potential. Iyer, Bumrah, and three seamers are all back. At the toss, Sharma announced that he had two spinners: Kuldeep and Jadeja.
