IND vs PAK Dream11 22nd Match Prediction | India vs Pakistan ICC World Cup 2019

The mother of all battles is here, it is time for the highly anticipated pulsating encounter between India and Pakistan which will be played at the Emirates Old Trafford in Manchester. India’s last encounter against New Zealand was washed out due to excessive rains which kept India undefeated in the tournament so far along with New Zealand.

Pakistan are coming into this match on the back of a defeat against the reigning champions Australia by 41 runs. This defeat pushed them down to the eighth spot in the points table which has definitely put them in real jeopardy. A washout in this game will do nothing good for Pakistan, however, India can still breathe freely if the two teams split points as they are comfortably poised at the fourth position without any loss against their name.

With this being the ultimate clash of the beautiful game of Cricket, the intensity would be sky-high on either side and both teams will fire all their cylinders to get on top.

A 90's born who has witnessed Sachin becoming "The God", Dhoni becoming "The only Captain to have won all the ICC trophies" and Kohli turning into a "run machine". Cricket is something I am crazy for and I try to deliver the best and true I can in my every writing.
