Everyone is waiting for the big match tomorrow. Both India and Pakistan can qualify to the Super-4 even if they lose tomorrow's match. But winning it will be a prestige issue for both the teams. And therefore both of them are fielding full-strength squads. Ishan Kishan will be keeping the wickets for India, but they also have Sanju Samson as the reserve player. The only one who is going to miss out is KL Rahul, who hasn't yet fully recovered from injury. And it will be interesting to watch Shreyas Iyer in action, as he had been out of action for more than 6 months.

The Asia Cup match that is at the center of interest is the third match of the Asia Cup between Pakistan and India. India vs Pakistan match is a different type of excitement where there is no way to predict which team will win. The XI announced by Pakistan last time against Nepal is undoubtedly Pakistan's best XI and against India Pakistan may go with the unchanged squad. I am just waiting to see the fast bowling line-up attack of both the teams as both the teams have fast bowling units but neither team is less than that. Shaheen Afridi Haris Rauf and Naseem Shah will lead Pakistan's fast bowling and Md Shami Mohammad Siraj and Jasprit Bhomra may lead India's fast bowling.

For India and Pakistan, a win against each other is much more important than the cup itself. And they haven't met on an ODI for years now,
Statistically, Pakistan is the top ODI team at the moment and it's one of their best teams of this decade. All of this Asia cup holding debacle and the existing controversies around ICC and IPL means it would be a heated competition watched my many with interest.
