Champions Trophy: Imam Comes In As Pakistan Opt To Bat First Against Unchanged India
Dubai International Stadium: Imam-ul-Haq comes into Pakistan’s playing XI as captain Mohammad Rizwan won the toss and elected to bat first against India in a high-stakes Group A clash in the 2025 Champions Trophy at the Dubai International Stadium on Sunday.
The two teams last met in an ODI game at the 2023 World Cup in Ahmedabad, with India winning by seven wickets. A win for India, who beat Bangladesh by six wickets, would put them on the cusp of entering the semi-finals.
Another loss for defending champions Pakistan, who faced a 60-run defeat to New Zealand, would lead them to an early exit from the eight-team competition.
