Legendary Madan Lal said the Indian team is experienced, but Pakistan cannot be taken lightly, given that Green Shirts have been performing well for two years.

Former Pakistan skipper Younis Khan said Pakistan-India matches are always pressure games, with both sides having an equal chance of winning.

He said every performance becomes memorable for the cricketing world. He spoke highly of India batter Virat Kohli’s match-winning knock against Pakistan in the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 fixture.

Former Pakistan wicketkeeper Kamran Akmal said both sides are balanced, but India is dealing with injuries. He said Rohit Sharma’s side has a strong batting lineup, but bowling is a problem for them.
