India bowlers started on a good note as Mohammed Siraj dismissed Abdullah Shafique and Hardik Pandya took out Imam-ul-Haq to provide strong start to the team. But, now the duo of Babar Azam and Muhammad Rizwan are on crease and India knows it can be dangerous.

Pacer Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj are leading India’s attack and Pakistan openers Abdullah Shafique and Imam-ul-Haq will have a big score in mind on the pitch of Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad.
