India vs Pakistan Dream11 prediction

Our PAK vs IND Dream11 prediction for this match:

  • Wicketkeeper(s): Mohammad Rizwan, Ishan Kishan
  • Batter(s): Virat Kohli, Babar Azam
  •  All-rounder(s): Ravindra Jadeja, Hardik Pandya
  • Bowler(s): Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf
  • Recommended captain: Shaheen Shah Afridi
  • Recommended vice-captain: Hardik Pandya

Shaheen Shah Afridi has been brilliant against India of late. He has every chance of again picking up early wickets. Hardik Pandya has a decent ODI record against Pakistan with the bat and is also handy in the bowling department. 

Mohammad Rizwan looked in pretty good touch against Nepal before getting run out on 44, so he would be determined to score big here. Ishan Kishan was also seen in good form this tournament. That's why both of them make it to the wicket-keeper's section. 

The batting has no surprises as we have picked the two stalwarts, Virat Kohli and Babar Azam. They have delivered in PAK vs IND matches before, and our India vs Pakistan prediction says that they are going to deliver once again.

The likes of Hardik Pandya and Ravindra Jadeja are automatic selections in the all-rounder's section. Both players have the ability to contribute in a big way with both bat and ball, and that's why you have to pick them.

In the bowlers' list, Jasprit Bumrah and Shaheen Afridi are must-haves. They have the ability to break open the game at any stage of the innings, and we are expecting that they could pick up multiple wickets in this game.

PAK vs IND prediction: India to win

Both India and Pakistan are equally matched teams and hence it is tough to pick an outright winner for the IND vs PAK match prediction. Keeping in mind the conditions, chasing teams will have a chance.

PAK vs IND toss prediction: India to win the toss and bat first

On a slow track, the team winning the toss would always want to bat India won the toss in the previous game and they can again end up on the winning side in the IND vs PAK toss prediction.

Man of the Match prediction: Hardik Pandya

Had India won their previous match against Pakistan, Hardik Pandya had a great chance of winning the Player of the Match award. He has a chance of winning the award in the upcoming IND vs PAK prediction.
