Whenever India and Pakistan faced each other in the 22 yards, it has
been a mighty affair for both the teams. The countries are known for
their passion for the game of cricket. However, it must also be stated
that when the two neighbours meet, it’s not just cricket that drives one
and all. India vs Pakistan Final match Champions Trophy 2017 will be held on 18th of June in Edgbaston. The match will be scheduled at 3:00 PM on this
Sunday.
India vs Pakistan Champions Trophy Head To Head Analysis
Before the two Asian giants lock horns in England, we would like to
walk you through the history of India vs Pakistan match in Champions
Trophy so far. The two teams have faced each other thrice in the
Champions Trophy. Pakistan has had an upper hand with two wins of the
three games. The first meet of the two teams was in the year 2004. This
particular match was more about the bowlers, as the Indian team batting
first was restricted to just 200 runs. Even Pakistan faced some initial
blows, but however, eventually went on to win the match against the
arch-rivals.
The teams faced each other for the second time in the Champions
Trophy was in the year 2009. It was again the Pakistan team which had
the last laugh. Having scored a massive 302 runs, the men in green
earned some early advantage. This advantage, however, eventually helped
them win the match. The last time the two teams met was in the year
2013. In the last match, the neighbors were bowled out for a mere 165 in
their quota of 40 overs. The scores were further reduced to 102 in 22
overs, which the Indian team easily conquered.
India vs Pakistan Champions Trophy 2017 Match Prediction
While it will be the Pakistani team which will be looking at the head
to head analysis so far, it will be the Indian team who will count on
the recent success that they have had against the opposition in the
Champions Trophy. The Indian team is almost identical to the team that
defeated the neighbours in the year 2013. However, there are way too
many changes in the Pakistani order. Keeping everything in mind, it
would be quite tough to give out the India vs Pakistan Champions Trophy
match prediction. However one thing that can be said for sure is the
fact that the mercury level is going to touch new heights when the two
teams meet this Sunday afternoon.
