India and Pakistan are set for a high-stakes clash in the T20 World Cup 2024 in New York on June 9. Both teams aim to secure crucial points and bragging rights in this intense rivalry. India, following a convincing win over Ireland, will look to maintain their momentum with star batsmen Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma leading the charge. Despite Kuldeep Yadav's strong credentials, India's management may prefer Axar Patel. Kohli, a standout performer against Pakistan, will be a key player to watch.
Pakistan, on the other hand, suffered a morale-damaging defeat against World Cup debutants the United States in a Super Over thriller. This loss has intensified the pressure on Babar Azam's team, making their match against India critical for their Super 8 qualification hopes. Despite their poor recent form and an unfavorable T20 World Cup head-to-head record against India, Pakistan will be eager to upset their arch-rivals.
The match will take place at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, starting at 10:30 PM local time. It will be broadcasted on Star Sports and streamed on Disney+ Hotstar. Historically, India has dominated Pakistan in T20 World Cup encounters, winning six out of seven matches.
