It is time for round two of the epic battle between India and Pakistan in this year's Asia Cup, with both teams entering on the back of wins.

Rohit Sharma and his men have been maintaining a 100 percent record in the tournament and kicked off their campaign with a five-wicket win over their arch-rivals a week ago. The Indian pacers were on the money that day with Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Hardik Pandya breaking the back of the Pakistani batting lineup.

The chase of 148 wasn't an easy task for the Indian team as Pakistan's fast bowlers also responded strongly with youngster Naseem Shah leading the way.

While Sharma and Virat Kohli steadied the ship for the team, the Pakistan bowlers kept the run flow under control and it seemed like the win was going the way of Babar Azam



and his men.

But Ravindra Jadeja and Pandya had other ideas, with both men stitching together a wonderful partnership to help India get home. One of the pleasing aspects of India would be the form exhibited by Kohli during the tournament.

While the display may not be up to the high standards set by the star batter, the 33-year-old played two vital knocks for the team during the group stages, which played a role in the wins. All eyes will be on Kohli once again as both teams collide on Sunday.

The stage is set for both teams on Sunday. While Super Fours points are up for grabs, the India vs Pakistan clash transcends that. While the arch-rivals will look to fight for the bragging rights on Sunday, an eye will be kept on a potential round three clash in this year's Asia Cup.
