IND vs PAK Probable Winners:

Every time India faces Pakistan, there are fireworks, and this final appears to be no exception. India enters this match full of confidence, bolstered by excellent previous form and the mental advantage gained from defeating Pakistan twice in this Asia Cup campaign. However, T20 cricket may shift quickly with a couple of blazing overs, giving both teams realistic chances. Pakistan's capacity to surprise opponents should not be underestimated, and they have quality bowlers who can cause problems for India's batting lineup. Their biggest issue has been with the bat, where they have appeared vulnerable and risk wasting good bowling performances. Considering the team combination, India is expected to win this match.
