Nothing gets the sports world, especially in the Asian subcontinent, buzzing like the hot rivalry between India and Pakistan. This feeling amplifies when the two nations clash on a cricket field. 

This rivalry embodies unmatched passion and enthusiasm separated by scores and wickets. It has always been a special event where emotions run high, and rationality takes a back seat. 

From the crowded streets of Mumbai to the colourful bylanes of Lahore, the whole subcontinent will stand still when these two cricketing giants clash. But in recent years, the rivalry has intensified due to the political tensions between the two nations.

In this smoking pot of pressure, the world shall witness the ageless rivalry take the stage yet again. With this cricketing World Cup having already provided some agonising close games, we can anticipate another clash of the Titans. 

Head to Head: ICC T20 World Cups 

India and Pakistan have contested in every ICC World T20 event, including a final in the inaugural season. Since its inception, they have clashed on 7, with India emerging victorious on six occasions and Pakistan having a solitary win.

Where to Watch India vs Pakistan

The age-old rivalry in the T20 World Cup 2024 will be broadcast in India on Star Sports Network. Fans can watch the action live on the Disney Plus Hotstar app and website, ensuring they don’t miss a second of this spectacular duel.

Key Players in India vs Pakistan Clash

Virat Kohli is, without a doubt, the man of crisis. He has a blistering average of over 300 against Pakistan in T20 World Cups. His classical form and consistency are unmatched, which makes him a genuine asset for Team India. Moreover, Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant, and Jasprit Bumrah are expected to play crucial roles in the game.

However, Pakistan is not far behind. Mohammad Amir, who rejoined the team after a brief retirement spell, has been in good form and enjoys playing against India. Well-recognized for his spells, he was instrumental in Pakistan’s overall triumph in the 2017 finals. Furthermore, Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, and Shaheen Afridi will also come into the play and spoil the party for India.
