T20 World Cup 2024: 3 Pakistan players who can be threat for India

The much-awaited India vs Pakistan match in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 is set to be played on June 9 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, New York. The drop-in pitches in New York are heading towards controversy for their nature, but the fans will hope to see a good game of cricket in the epic clash coming their way. Before playing against India, Pakistan will start their World Cup campaign against the USA on June 6, which is in tremendous form. 

Meanwhile, the men in blue will play their first match against Ireland on June 5 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium, New York. Pakistan team will be well prepared to face India in the World Cups, considering the records they have had in the past. Moreover, the men in green have some players who are in great form and will be looking for an opportunity to showcase their talents. 

Let's check out the three Pakistan players who can be a threat to India in the T20 World Cup 2024:

3. Mohammad Rizwan

Pakistan's Mohammad Rizwan has a solid record against India in the T20Is. He has played just four matches and scored 197 runs at an average of 65.67. He is the most dangerous batter for Pakistan, who loves to battle against India. Hence, the men in blue should be aware of him and his strengths and look to dismiss him before he can do some serious damage to the team.

2. Shaheen Afridi

One of the most talented bowlers in Pakistan, Shaheen Afridi, has been in great form since the start of the season. In the previous T20I series against England, he took three wickets in two matches and was quite economical as well. As the New York ground favours seamers more, Afridi has a huge chance of disappointing the Indians if they take him lightly. His line and lengths are perfect, and he can definitely be a huge threat to the team. 

1. Babar Azam

Captain Babar Azam's previous series against England was a huge success as he played some good knocks. Even though he couldn't win the series, his efforts were evident. However, when it comes to playing against India, Azam has always stood up for his team and it can be expected that he will do the same in the upcoming match. If the Indian bowlers manage to get him out quickly, the batting order might shatter soon. Hence, India should keep the skipper under their radar.
