Asia Cup 2018, Ind vs Pak: India not the favourites in today's key match

Pakistan have a psychological advantage as they had convincingly beaten India when the two teams last met in the ICC Champions Trophy final on June 18, 2017, at the Oval in London

In Match 5 of Asia Cup 2018 at Dubai International Stadium in United Arab Emirates, Rohit Sharma’s India will today clash with arch rivals Pakistan, which is led by Sarfaraz Ahmed. The Indian cricket team will look to plug the weaknessed unravelled in their show against so-called minnows Hong Kong on Tuesday. India might make a change to their playing 11 by bringing in Jasprit Bumrah in place of Shardul Thakur and Hardik Pandya could replace Khaleel Ahmed. On the other hand, Pakistan will be high on confidence after crushing Hong Kong in their first game of the tournament.
