India and Pakistan Face Off in Pivotal Champions Trophy Clash

India seeks to secure a semifinal spot, while Pakistan fights to stay in the tournament in Sunday's highly anticipated match in Dubai.

India enters the match with momentum after a strong win against Bangladesh, led by Shubman Gill's century, while Pakistan faces elimination following a loss to New Zealand.
The game will take place at Dubai International Stadium, where India agreed to play all their matches due to political tensions preventing travel to Pakistan.
Pakistan's bowling coach Aaqib Javed has expressed confidence in their pace trio—Shaheen Shah Afridi, Naseem Shah, and Haris Rauf—despite their struggles in the opening match.
India holds a historical advantage over Pakistan in ODI cricket but aims to avenge their loss in the 2017 Champions Trophy final.
Ticket prices for the match are exceptionally high, reflecting the intense fan interest and significance of this storied rivalry.
