Dubai: The scene is ready for another octane height meeting as Pakistan locking horns with India rivals in Asia in the Super Four Clash Cup on Sunday at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium.
Head coach Mike Hesson and Captain Salman Ali Agha designed a strategy to counter the Indian striker with a quick bowling alley instead of shooting this time.
Pakistan, which lost against India by seven gohets in the group A meeting last Sunday last Sunday, will bring two changes from the team that beat the United Arab Emirates in the last group match. The young striker Hassan Nawaz and Khushdil Shah will likely fail to miss today, according to sources.
Faheem Ashraf is expected to return, while Hussain Talat is also likely to play his first ASIA CUP 2025 match.
The management of the team preselected 12 players for the first game of Pakistan Super Four against India. However, Khushdil Shah, who was included in the place of Faheem Ashraf for the match against the water, probably will not be the XI final.
Pakistan probably plays XI:
Saim Ayub, Sahibzada Farhan, Fakhar Zaman, Salman Ali Agha (Captain), Mohammad Nawaz, Hussain Talat, Faheem Ashraf, Mohammad Haris (Wicketkeeper), Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf, Abrar Ahmed.
Earlier on Saturday, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) president Mohin Naqvi met the team members during the Dubai Sports Academy training session.
Meanwhile, Andy Pycroft remains in charge as a match arrest for Dubai’s leg, despite Pakistan’s request for a full -fledged investigation in the handle of last week.
