Asia Cup 2023 | India vs Pakistan | Super Fours | Pre-Match Analysis
In the highly anticipated Asia Cup 2023 Super Four match, India will take on their arch-rivals Pakistan at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. The first meeting of these two teams during the group stage of the continental cricket tournament ended in a no-result, due to heavy rains in Kandy. But still, the Indian batters went head-to-head against Pakistan bowlers, which might keep them and their team in good stead, for the upcoming clash in the Super Four stage.
Pitch Report
The pitches at the R Premadasa Stadium are known to assist the spinners the most in ODIs over its long and rich cricketing history. With the average first innings score of 225, this venue isn’t easy for the batting teams to make big scores consistently. That’s why, we could see a total in the range of 250-270, when India plays against Pakistan on September 10.
