IND vs PAK Asia Cup 2023: Here’s how to watch the India vs. Pakistan match on Saturday at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in Kandy.
The India-Pakistan match is less than 24 hours away, and cricket fans in both countries are buzzing with anticipation. The strong rivalry is not new; it dates back more than 70 years, when India and Pakistan played their first match following the terrible split in October 1952. The Indian team, headed by Lala Amarnath, defeated Pakistan by an innings and 70 runs in the Test match.
Since the first meeting, neither country’s cricket has been the same. The cricket rivalry between the two countries got more severe as their geopolitical differences intensified, with India always holding the upper hand.
Asia Cup history
The strong status of India in the Asia Cup is evident, as both sides have battled 13 times in the competition, with India winning 7 times, Pakistan winning 5 times, and one match ending in a draw. The previous five Asia Cup meetings have been devastating for Pakistan, with India winning four of them.
India defeated Pakistan by 9 wickets in the 2018 Asia Cup in Dubai, which was by far the Indian team’s most stunning triumph over their neighbors. India’s batters like the Asia Cup as a competition, and Virat Kohli’s 183 against Pakistan remains the best individual score by an Asia Cup batsman.
