Pakistan and India will be looking for a successful start of their World T20 campaign when they lock horns at Dubai Cricket Stadium on Sunday. Pakistan’s preparations for the showpiece event were hurt with the last-minute cancellation of their home series against New Zealand due to security concerns. Prolific pair Babar and Muhammad Rizwan will start the innings while Fakhar Zaman will bat at no.3. Their batting line-up feature the likes of Lokesh Rahul, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Hardik Pandya and Ravindra Jadeja. Jasprit Bumrah will spearhead the pace department and is likely to be accompanied by Shardul Thakur and Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
