Delhi: Under the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 (ICC Champions Trophy 2025), the Maha match between India and Pakistan is to be played on 23 February at the International Stadium in Dubai. On one hand, Team India started their campaign with victory by defeating Bangladesh. At the same time, the host Pakistan has suffered a defeat against New Zealand, which is ready to get into a do or die match against Team India. Cricket fans are very excited for the clash between India and Pakistan on Sunday. Let us know what is the pitch report for this high voltage match and how the possible playing eleven of both teams will be.
Weak Visible doing Pakistan of Team
Even though Pakistan has defeated India in the Champions Trophy 2017 and T20 World Cup 2021, but if seen at this time, Pakistan has fewer match winners than India. Some changes in the Pakistan team are sure to be done, because due to the injury, Fakhar Zaman has been out of the tournament, in place of which entry has been made in Imam ul Haq’s team. Apart from this, the poor form of Saud Shakeel remains concerned for Pakistan at this time, in place of which wicketkeeper batsman Usman Khan can get a chance against India.
Indian Team of Strength Is These Player
If the Indian team lands in this match even without change, then it can face Pakistan. Team India seems to be very strong by winning its first match of this tournament against Bangladesh, where the performance of Indian players in every field is fantastic. Overall, even without Bumrah, the bowling attack of Team India is quite deadly. India’s middle order to the lower order is so strong that it has the ability to win any match.
Arshdeep has experience of playing against Pakistan. The performance by Shubman Gill in the first match will once again have similar expectations from him.
pitch Report
The pitch that India will get in Dubai will not be compared to before. There are two such fresh pitch in Dubai Stadium, which have not been done for any kind of match recently and it is believed that the pitch will not be slow as before. The pitch will be slightly sharp, which will benefit the spinner. If the spinner puts a little fast ball, then he can put a wicket. This is the reason that the selectors of Team India have given 5 spinners a chance in the team.
As the match progresses, the position of the batsmen gets better but spinners can be effective in the middle over. So far, 58 ODIs have been held here, where the team has defended their score while batting 22 times before, the team who batted in the second innings 34 times won. The average score of the first innings here is 218 while the average in the second innings is 198 runs. Bowling can be given priority here by winning the toss, because on the second makes the batting easier and reduces the influence of the spinner in the second inning.
