India vs Pakistan, T20 World Cup 2024: It will be a clash of the titans in New York as India lock horns against arch-rivals Pakistan at the Nassau County Cricket Stadium on Sunday (June 9).

After a winning start over Ireland, team India is currently placed 2nd in the Group A points table. Pakistan's journey in the tournament started in the worst way possible as they were beaten by co-hosts USA.

There will be jitters in the Pakistan camp, as they know a victory is a must to keep their hopes of advancing to the Super Eights alive. India, on the other hand, will be hoping to replicate their performance against Ireland and topple Pakistan yet again. It promises to be an exciting encounter between the two age old rivals.

India vs Pakistan - Team News, Injury Update

There have been a few injury scares for India ahead of this high-voltage clash. Rohit Sharma suffered a hand injury in the match against Ireland and had to go out. It looks like the India captain will be ready to play against Pakistan. In terms of the team in general, India may not make any change for this upcoming clash.

Pakistan have had a woeful start to the campaign and are expected to make a couple of changes at least. Azam Khan, who departed for a first-ball duck against USA is set to be axed. He has been in an abysmal form of late and looks set to be demoted to the bench. In terms of the bowlers, Haris Rauf is likely to retain his place. Saim Ayub, the young Pakistani batter may come into the lineup against India at the expense of Azam Khan. Imad Wasim is tipped to be sidelined for the India match, which is a big blow for Pakistan.
