The former Indian skipper has gone without an international hundred across formats for nearly three years now and all the eyes will be on him ahead of the high-voltage clash against Babar Azam’s side.
Virat has played in 99 T20I games for India and gathered 3,308 runs at an average of 50.12. The India-Pakan clash would be Virat’s 100th game in the T20I format.
The last time when India played Pakan, they got outplayed 10 wickets. The Rohit Sharma-led side will be fighting for revenge this time and will look to make the most out of it, while Babar and his team will be looking to emulate their last performance.
