The big ticket T20 World Cup 2022 clash between India and Pakistan to take place in Melbourne’s MCG on October 23, 2022, saw a packed stadium as the two teams prepared to take on one another.

Pakistan registered their maiden win in World Cup history last T20 World Cup in UAE and it resulted in India being unable to make it into the final four of the tournaments, while Pakistan lost to eventual champions Australia in the semi-final.

This time Indian team is led by Rohit Sharma and has multiple changes in their lineup with the big addition of Hardik Pandya fit and raring to contribute with the ball as well.

India won the toss and chose to bowl first with India going in with Mohammad Shami and R Ashwin in their XI. Shaheen Afridi returned to Pakistan XI, as they prepared to bat first on a spicy MCG pitch.

Rohit said at the toss: "Looks like a good pitch, a bit of grass, and it's a little overcast, so the ball might swing around a little bit, so we'll try and use that to our advantage. Very much sorted with our preparation now. It's time to come out and enjoy ourselves."

Ahead of the important game, the cricket fraternity took to Twitter to wish Rohit Sharma and rest of the Indian team all the best for this crunch encounter.
