India vs Pakistan, Cricket World Cup 2023 Fantasy Cricket Tips And Fantasy XI

India are all set to lock horns with Pakistan in a crucial Cricket World Cup 2023 encounter at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Saturday. While the two teams take each other on the playing field, the fantasy cricket managers have a chance to pick their favourite players and form their own teams. The performance of the players on the field will translate to points for each fantasy team picked, and the manager with the team with the most points stands a chance to win attractive prizes.

Talking about the match, the two teams locked horns in an Asia Cup Super 4 encounter recently, where India won by a massive margin of 228 runs. Both Virat Kohli and KL Rahul scored centuries in that match, whereas Kuldeep Yadav registered a five-wicket haul.

Pakistan will be looking to avenge that loss in this game. They have already won both of their World Cup encounters so far. But India have been in equally good form having won their two matches as well. So, this is going to be quite an interesting battle that could keep the fans on the edge of their seats.  We can take a look at all the information needed to form the best possible fantasy team.

Weather and Pitch Report

The deck in Ahmedabad is quite good for batting. New Zealand chased down 283 quite easily in the first game at this venue and that sums up that teams batting first would need totals in excess of 320 to win this encounter. The weather isn’t going to be that kind for the side fielding first. The temperature is expected to be around 36 degrees Celsius and the day will be quite humid.
