Today is one of the biggest games of this ongoing World Cup 2023, arch rivals India and Pakistan will face each other at Narendra Modi stadium of Ahmedabad. Both teams looks in great form and won their both games. India vs Pakistan always hold a tight game between neighbors whenever they play against each other. If we talk about head to head in the World Cup then both teams have encountered 7 times in the history of the World Cup and India has won it all.
Both teams are at strong position in points table India beats Australia and Afghanistan in their first two games and Pakistan has also won their first two games against Netherland and Sri Lanka. Pakistan batted so well against Sri Lanka that they chased down 345 in 48.2 overs. On the other hand India chased the fastest 250 against Afghanistan. Both are packed with world class batters which will make this game a high scoring big encounter, it will be delightful to watch batters from both teams scoring so many runs. In this article I am predicting 3 batters to score the most runs in today’s game.
Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli loves to bat against Pakistan he has great records against neighbors in almost every format. He appeared in 15 games against this opponent and with the help of 3 centuries and 2 half centuries he scored 662 runs at an excellent average of 55.17. In world cups he played 3 games against Pakistan and with the help of one century and one half century he scored 193 runs. His stats against Pakistan shows how dedicated he looks while batting against the arch rivals. He is also in good form in this world cup and with 2 consecutive half centuries he scored 140 runs in 2 games. We are sure that he is going to dominate Pakistan’s bowler’s and add some extra in his pocket.
Mohammad Rizwan

Rizwan will be the biggest threat for Indians to get over. He is in excellent form and scored 199 runs in the first two games. In the last game he snatched a marvelous victory from Sri Lanka in the last game. Once Pakistan was two wickets down on 37 while chasing 345 and captain Babar Azam was included in both wickets. He went on to carry forward the game with opener Abdullah Shafique and scored unbeaten 131 runs to register 6 wickets win over Sri Lanka. Abdullah was a centurion too in that game and he could also score so many runs today. In the first game against Netherland Rizwan again took the responsibility to save his team from collapse.
Hardik Pandya
Indian all rounder Hardik Pandya is one of the most impactful players in India vs Pakistan games. We’ve seen him many times thrashing Pak bowlers when there is need. It will be interesting to see Hardik Pandya coming up the order and hitting big sixes against the opponent bowlers. Hardik Pandya also has a good experience of this ground, he is the captain of Gujrat Titans in IPL and Narendra Modi is considered as his home ground and he has good record while playing in this ground in IPL. There are many players who can score so many runs in this game for example, KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma, Babar Azam etc. but watching Hardik Pandya bat at last and saving India from collapse is very soothing to eyes.
