Virat Kohli

One of the modern-day greats, Virat Kohli always takes his game a step higher when it comes to facing Pakistan. Indian cricket fans would remember how he snatched a win from the jaws of defeat last year in the T20 WC and hope he does well again.

Rohit Sharma

The Indian captain is one of the most important players for his side and there's no stopping him once he gets going. Come Saturday in the Asia Cup, fans would want the star opener to show his class and perform well against the archrivals.

Jasprit Bumrah

Returning to cricket after a long injury layoff, all eyes would be on Jasprit Bumrah. The Indian ace fast bowler has been doing well since his return to cricket and he would like to pose a few problems for Pakistan's batters in this match.

Babar Azam

Consistency is his middle name. Babar Azam has been one of the world's best batters and it was on show when he struck a classy 151 against Nepal. He would want to put up a good show against a top Indian bowling attack.

Shadab Khan

The all-rounder is one of Pakistan's most important players. Shadab Khan did well against Nepal, taking four wickets and he will look to continue that good form going against India.

Shaheen Shah Afridi

A gun bowler at the start of the innings, facing Shaheen Afridi is nothing but a nightmare at the top of the order. With his swing and toe-crushing yorkers, he would look to wreck India's batting order.
