India vs Pakistan, Asia Cup 2022: Date, match time, predicted playing XIs and live streaming details
Babar Azam's Pakistan will take on Rohit Sharma-led India on Sunday.
Rohit Sharma-led India will be looking to get their campaign off to a winning start when they lock horns with arch-rivals Pakistan in their opener of the Asia Cup 2022 on Sunday (August 28). It will be India's first meeting with Pakistan in ten months having suffered a disappointing ten-wicket loss against Babar Azam & Co. in the T20 World Cup last year.
Despite sharing one of the greatest rivalries in the history of the sport, India and Pakistan have not played any bilateral cricket between them since 2013. The two teams continue to meet only in major ICC tournaments due to the political tensions between the two countries.
India will enter Asia Cup 2022 as the defending champions having won the last edition in 2018 under Rohit's captaincy. India are the most successful team in the history of the competition and remain favourites to successfully defend their title in the UAE this year.
The marquee clash against Pakistan will also mark the return of senior batter Virat Kohli, who was on a break from cricket post the conclusion of India's tour of England last month. The underfire batter will have all the eyes on him as he aims to bounce back from his poor form and notch up a big knock for the Men in Blue.

KL Rahul, who made his comeback from injury in the recently-concluded ODI series, will also be under significant pressure as he looks to regain his rhythm ahead of the T20 World Cup later this year. While the middle-order is stacked, India's bowling depth looks ordinary in the absence of Jasprit Bumrah.
