Pitch Update
The photographs showcasing the Dubai pitch ahead of Pakistan’s crucial match demonstrate that the entire grass coverage is absent from the ground. The spin category will be prominent on this pitch due to the entire grass removal. The cricket pitch performed worse during India-Bangladesh match under lighting conditions than anticipated by spectators. The Bangladesh spinners created problems for Indian batsmen whose struggles to time the ball became apparent. Team Bangladesh managed to trouble Indian batsmen after making their ball soft during the match.
Chakravarthy might get a chance
The dry surface of this pitch might lead Rohit Sharma to name Varun Chakravarthy as a playing eleven member rather than a fast bowler. After the success against England Chakravarthy approaches the upcoming match with elevated confidence that makes him well-positioned to succeed with the available conditions. The selection of Harshit Rana would become unlikely since India already has Mohammed Shami and Hardik Pandya can complete his full allotment of ten overs.
Teams of both countries for Champions Trophy
India’s Team: Rohit Sharma (Captain), Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant (Wicketkeeper), KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Arshdeep Singh, Harshal Rana, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Shami, Varun Chakravarthy.
Pakistan’s Team: Mohammad Rizwan (Captain), Salman Ali Agha (Vice-captain), Babar Azam, Imam-ul-Haq, Saud Shakeel, Kamran Ghulam, Khushdil Shah, Tayyab Tahir, Usman Khan, Faheem Ashraf, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf, Naseem Shah, Muhammad Hasnain, and Abrar Ahmad.
