India vs Pakistan: 3 Indian Players Who Can Win The Man Of The Match Award. India and Pakistan will lock horns against each other on Sunday for the 6th time in a T20 World cup game and this is expected to be one of the most entertaining games.

Both teams have some experienced match-winners in their lineup and it is time to look at 3 Indian players who can win the man of the match award in the game against Pakistan.

KL Rahul has been in the form of his life in recent times in IPL 2021 UAE phase and has looked sublime in the first two warm-up games as well. With Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli looking to take time at the crease, it is the responsibility of KL Rahul to go after the bowling from the outset. He played a brilliant knock in the first warm-up game against England that set up the chase for India.

Rahul will fancy his chances taking on the spinner in the powerplay as he likes to go down in the powerplay. He is very good against the fast bowlers and he can punish them if they slightly fall out of the ideal length. It will be interesting to see his approach against Pakistan which is a team that he hasn’t played often.

Virat Kohli:

Virat Kohli is always among the names for contenders for man of the match as he is one of the best batsmen in the current era. He can take the game away from the opposition quickly with his brilliant classical shot-making and does not take a lot of risks which is the reason for his consistent show in international cricket.

The Indian skipper hasn’t been in the best of forms in recent times and this will be the best time for him to showcase that he still holds a key place in the Indian lineup. He has a staggering record against Pakistan and likes the challenge of playing against them.

Varun Chakravarthy:

Varun Chakravarthy will be one of the bowlers that the Pakistan batsman would have never faced and the mystery bowler will hold a big role in this Indian bowling setup. Chakravarthy has a bag of tricks in the armoury and he can certainly play with the minds of the batsmen. He was brilliant in IPL 2021 recently.

Chakravarthy has the ability to bowl in any phase of the innings and he can be very attacking with his lines and lengths. He will be the X factor for India in the T20 World Cup and it will be interesting to see how the Pakistan batsmen go about their business against the quality spin of Varun Chakravarthy.
