Preview
India will lock horns against Pakistan in the Group A match of the T20 World Cup 2024 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. Following their big win over Ireland in the tournament opener, the Indian cricket team will be keenly looking forward to taking on their arch-rivals. For Pakistan, it is vital to put the disappointment of losing against the USA behind them if they want to have any chance to compete well against the Indians in the T20 World Cup 2024.
Toss Prediction
In the last four T20I matches, the captain of India, Rohit Sharma, won the toss on all four occasions, compared with the captain of Pakistan, Babar Azam, who has done it only twice. With that, it is highly likely that Rohit Sharma will have the toss fall in his favour in the upcoming India versus Pakistan clash in the T20I World Cup 2024.
Win Possibility
The Indian fast bowlers, including the likes of Jasprit Bumrah , Arshdeep Singh, and Hardik Pandya were exceptional with the ball against Ireland in their opening T20 World Cup 2024 match. Following this, captain Rohit Sharma and Rishabh Pant were quite impressive with the bat in chasing down the 96-run target on a tricky batting pitch without getting dismissed.
Pakistan, on the other side, were in a pulsating battle against the USA in their tournament opener, which they lost in the super over. Shadab Khan and Naseem Shah were the only two players on the day, who performed somewhere close to their best, which was far from enough regardless.
That’s why, it will be very difficult for Pakistan to play against an Indian cricket team, who are expected to be one of the teams to beat in the T20 World Cup 2024.
Predicted powerplay score and first innings score
The pitches at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York have been quite helpful for the fast bowlers during the T20 World Cup 2024, making it really difficult for most batters to survive for any length of time at the crease. With that, India and Pakistan batters have to be on their toes throughout their batting innings, to ensure that they can post an above par total on the board. Notably, the average first innings score is 103 at this venue in T20Is, while the first innings score in the upcoming match could range between 150-155. The powerplay score could go up to 40-45.
