India Vs Pakistan, ICC T20 World Cup Key Stats: Head-To-Head Record, Top Scorer, Wicket-Takers, Best Bowling Figures

India come into the all-important contest on the back of an easy win against Paul Stirling’s Ireland. On the other hand, Pakistan will enter the fixture, more like a must-win, after their shock defeat to the United States a couple of days ago. 

There could be a few changes in both camps with Kuldeep Yadav returning for India, while Azam Khan might just have to make way for the exciting Saim Ayub who might open the batting.
