It is time for the summit clash of the Asia Cup, and as the broadcasters of the tournament would have hoped, Pakistan will take on a very strong Team India. The arch-rivals did start the tournament a bit slowly, especially haven’t been at their best against India, but then to come and win two back-to-back matches against Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, only shows that Salman Ali Agha’s team is determined to prove a point.
Sunday’s match would be the first time that the tournament witnesses IND vs PAK final, and it becomes only important for both teams to come up with their best XIs. Insidesport takes a look at the Pakistan Predicted XI.
Batting Big Worry, Saim Ayub Still Retains Spot
One of the highlights of the Pakistani team has been, they have been reluctant to make changes — especially when it comes to their popular players. The southpaw has only scored 23 runs in six matches and four of them have been ducks. But on the flipside, he has been doing the job with the ball. He has picked eight wickets.
Skipper Salman Ali Agha hasn’t been good either. He too is yet to contribute significantly with the bat. 20 has been his highest score so far. But who would dare remove the captain, that too in a final?
Fakhar Zaman to Open
Just one fifty in this tournament, he is streaky, doesn’t look confident while batting, but then if he gets going, he can hammer the bowlers. He can hit the ball cleanly, and still has scored more runs that Saim and Agha combined. So just like the previous match, he deserves to open, and should look unsettle Bumrah.
Pace Attack Remains Same, Faheem Out
No complaints from the pace attack. Shaheen Shah Afridi and Haris Rauf have bowled well and picked up nine wickets each, but PAK must consider making one change. Faheem Ashraf hasn’t been the most effective with the bat or the ball. And instead the team could see to get left-arm wrist spinner Sufiyan Muqeem. He could be a surprise package for the Indian team.
Pakistan Predicted XI
Sahibzada Farhan, Fakhar Zaman, Saim Ayub, Salman Agha (captain), Hussain Talat, Mohammad Haris (wicketkeeper), Mohammad Nawaz, Sufiyan Muqeem, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf, Abrar Ahmed.
