Pakistan and India are almost in the same level in terms of gameplay. The performance variation at times makes one better over the other. With the Asian Cup, only the India vs Pakistan match will be discussed big. This is all because of the importance and a kind of market making for cricket. Even if the player watches it as a game, the media will give it big hype for money making.

I have a feeling that Pakistan has the upper hand this time. They won the last T20I encounter between these two sides. And on top of that, Virat Kohli is out of form while Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman are in terrific shape. But one disadvantage for Pakistan is that their strike bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi won't be available for the tournament. That may not be an issue if other bowlers step up their attack. As seen from yesterday's game, second-string Pakistani pacers (Naseem, Wasim and Shahnawaz) looks as if they are in terrific form.

Meanwhile, the Pakistanis are starting to think that Shaheen Afridi's absence will give the Indian top batsmen less pressure. The reality is the same. Since Virat Kohli is not in form, either he will roar in this match or he will be banned from World Cup cricket. Indian bowlers and batsmen are in form. India lost the last match played between the two teams. So this time India will try hard to win the match.

I am still going to say Pakistan is going to have the upper hand. But on paper honestly, neither team looks better than the other. With that injury situation in Pakistan, especially the main fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi is not going to be available. That is a big hit for Pakistan. And on the other hand, Virat Kohli is not in form also I think the situation of the Indian team is not the best at this moment.

Pakistan's Shaheen Afridi is out of Asia Cup but various comments are being made with him. As much as the pronouncements are not being made about Virat Kohli. He is a renowned cricketer in the world but who is not paying much attention due to his lack of form. But India take him as the trump card on the game.

There is a lot of criticism about Virat Kohli in the Indian cricket team.As Virat Kohli is a world class player, it is not right for him to be so bad at this moment. The skill and performance that he had in his game is now very bad. But he was criticized all over India and even within the Indian cricket team.But he must continue to persevere better to make his future better.
