While he did say that the contest would be a tight one, the Aussie legend parted with India and backed Rohit Sharma's men to come out victorious.
"I will stick with India to win that clash against Pakistan. That is taking nothing away from Pakistan because they are an incredible cricket nation that continues to present out-and-out superstar players," said Ponting.
The legendary batsman further backed the Men in Blue to go on and lift the Asia Cup on UAE soil.

"It is always hard to go past India in any tournament, not just an Asia Cup, but I think every time we talk about the T20 World Cup which is coming up, I think that India will be right in the thick of it there. Their depth is definitely better than the other teams and I think India will win the Asia Cup," Ponting added further.
