PTV Sports Live Pakistan vs India T20 World Cup 2022 Super 12

The high-octane and electrifying contests in the cricket field between Pakistan and India had become a rarity after their political ties turned sour.

However, now almost within a year, both cricketing giants are set to lock horn for the fourth time.

From September 14, 2007 to March 19, 2016, the two arch-rivals had played a total of eight T20 Internationals against each other. While in last one year, they have met three times in the format and now are ready to take on each other again on Sunday.

Except two T20Is held in December 2012 in Bengaluru and Ahmedabad between them, all other matches between Pakistan and India were part of either Men’s T20 Asia Cup or ICC Men’s World Twenty20.

Even the most recent three T20Is and the forthcoming encounter between them are of no exception.

Both Pakistan and India will now meet at Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on Sunday in a Group B Match of Super 12 Round of ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022.
