Asia Cup 2023: India vs Pakistan - 5 player battles to watch out for
With the return of the greatest rivalry on September 10, eyes will be set on some top-notch player battles.
3. Jasprit Bumrah vs Babar Azam
Jasprit Bumrah made a comeback in ODIs almost after one year in the group game against the Men in Green in Pallekele. The speedster didn’t get a chance to bowl as the game was washed out due to rain. After missing the second match against Nepal, Bumrah will join the playing XI again in the Super Fours stage.
A mouth-watering contest between Bumrah and Pakistan captain Babar Azam could be witnessed in the next India-Pakistan encounter. Both players have contested against each other in five matches. In all these appearances, the speedster has bowled 26 deliveries to the Pakistan skipper and scored 17 runs.
In the Super Fours game against Pakistan, India supporters will expect Bumrah to outclass Babar and bring cheers to their faces. On the other hand, Pakistan fans will want their skipper to take India’s premier pacer to the cleaners and emerge as the winner in this blockbuster rivalry.
