India vs Pakistan Asia Cup 2022: Date, Time, Venue, Playing XI, live streaming, all you need to know

Social media is already abuzz as there are only seven days left before Rohit Sharma-led Team India face off against arch-rivals Pakistan in their opening match of Asia Cup 2022. It will be the first meeting between the two teams since the historic meeting at last year's T20I World Cup, wherein Babar Azam's men emerged victorious by 10 wickets. 

On Tuesday, the Indian team left for Dubai, as they gear up to defend their Asia Cup title, which the Men in Blue won under Rohit Sharma's captaincy back in 2018. 

While the Indian team defeated Zimbabwe 3-0 in the ODI series to head to the Asia Cup 2022 with momentum within their stead, Babar Azam's side also blanked the Netherlands by a similar margin. So there's little to choose in terms of which side is in better form coming into the Asia Cup.
