Prashant Vats: “A big toss win for Pakistan. Considering their bowling line up and their never ending habit of ever giving up after loosing to a minnows in a tournament – They are all set to start their tournament with a win over arch rivals!” A lot of you seem to reckon that was a colossal toss to win.

Pakistan have won the toss and will field first “The past is the past, and we’re looking forward to this match,” says Babar Azam Imad Wasim in for Azam Khan the only Pakistan change
10.23am Fairly even square boundaries today: 66m on one side and 70m on the other. The wind speed right now is 23kph – not sure what direction it’s blowing in. A network of cracks and large plates all over the pitch, with a good amount of grass cover too. Don’t expect big totals today.
