Virat Kohli pats on the back of former Pakistan skipper Babar Azam. The two batting stars were seen exchanging pleasantries and spoke with each other when Babar walked out to the middle along with fellow opener Imam-ul-Haq. Kohli and Babar are two of the biggest batters in world cricket at the moment, but the latter is currently undergoing a lean patch. It is a must-win encounter for Pakistan to keep their semi-final hopes alive from Group A after losing to New Zealand by 60 runs in the tournament opener in Karachi. On the other hand, India started their campaign with a six-wicket win over Bangladesh. India’s frontline pacers Shami and Harshit Rana remain wicketless in their opening spells before Hardik Pandya provided the first breakthrough. Babar departed after scoring 23 runs off 23 with the help of five fours. Earlier, Pakistan captain Mohammad Rizwan won the toss and opted to bat first.
