Top-Order: Captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will continue to open the innings. Kohli's promotion to the top-order looks to be a prolonged move, despite the latter failing to make a mark against Ireland. The experience of both these veterans will be helpful in countering the much-famed pace attack of Pakistan cricket team on difficult surface to bat. Rishabh Pant looked pretty much at ease while batting at number three and he will continue to occupy that slot.

Middle-Order: Suryakumar Yadav, the world no 1 T20I batter, is set to come in at number four. The dynamic right-hander had a short stay at the crease against Ireland and he will look to make an impact against Pakistan. He is going to be followed by Shivam Dube at five. Dube is known for his aggressive batting, especially against spinners and it will be interesting to see how he tackles Pakistan's spin attack, which comprises of Imad Wasim and Shadab Khan.

All-Rounders: Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel are set to be the all-rounders in India's playing XI vs Pakistan. Pandya was at his best with the ball against Ireland, taking three wickets which broke the back of the opposition's batting. Axar was superb and so was Jadeja and the trio will hope to repeat a similar performance against Pakistan. Nassau, New York Weather Forecast for June 09: Are There Chances of Rain During India vs Pakistan ICC T20 World Cup 2024 Cricket Match?

Bowlers: Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh and Mohammad Siraj will be form India's pace attack against Pakistan. Arshdeep was impressive in the match against Ireland, sending back both openers pretty early on in the contest. Bumrah was superb, conceding just six runs in three overs while taking two wickets, a performance which bagged him the Man of the Match award. Siraj also was decent, giving away 13 runs in three overs while picking up a wicket. Axar and Jadeja are set to be the two spinners and should India decide to go in with a third spinner, Siraj might make way for Kuldeep Yadav.
