🏏Asia Cup 2023: M3: IND vs PAK on 02/09/2023 - Th#2 link Pg 150🏏 - Page 6

TahirJagirani: "being a mature follower of cricinfo.com from Pakistan I thank you for weather updates, can you tell us that who is VC of India? bcoz i can't see any name marked with VC in india's Squad." --- It's Hardik Pandya.

India (Playing XI): Rohit Sharma(c), Shubman Gill, Ishan Kishan(w), Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj

The team winning the toss wanted to bat first, reckons Ravi Shastri. This pitch has more grass than the previous one, the pitch that was used during Pakistan vs Nepal. This track looks slow and bounce can be on the lower side. The ball might grip early on, you might see spin. A score of 260-270 can be challenging on this wicket.

One interesting thing there: Kishan slotted at No. 3 and Kohli at 4. Let's see if India go with this.

Shreyas Iyer: "I never imagined I would be playing the Asia Cup when I was recovering. I am super excited to be playing this match. Pakistan are the No. 1 side and playing very well.The Pakistan bowlers are sensational. The plan is to watch the ball and stay in the present."

Hassan Naeem: "Great toss to win as this pitch will be 132 overs old since yesterday when pak come into bat. Spinners to make the biggest impact. " --- This is a fresh pitch, not the one where Sri Lanka and Bangladesh played.

Shreyas Iyer: I never imagined I'll be playing Asia Cup. The recovery was slow and steady. I passed the fitness test one week before selection, and I was really happy with that. I was nervous last night, couldn't sleep. I am super excited to play this match against Pakistan. It's a phenomenal feeling to be honest as they are the number 1 team at the moment. We are privileged to be a part of this team and journey with Rahul sir (Dravid) as the coach and under Rohit Sharma's captaincy. The spirits are high in the dressing room and we are looking forward to this game. Delighted to be playing against these (Afridi, Rauf, Naseem) bowlers, plan is just to watch the ball and play according to the situation
