IND vs PAK: Arch-rivals India and Pakistan are gearing up for their next face-off in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 group-stage clash. The match is scheduled to be held at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Sunday, Feb. 15, where both teams will be hoping to continue their winning run.
The marquee clash will add a chapter in the long history of India-Pakistan rivalry, while also potentially deciding which team tops Group A. Defending champions India are heading into the match after defeating associate sides the USA and Namibia in their last two games.
Suryakumar Yadav's men dominated the Namibians in their 93-run victory at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Thursday, Feb. 12. The massive win helped the Men in Blue consolidate their top spot on the points table.
For Pakistan, led by Salman Ali Agha, the comprehensive win over the USA in Colombo also took them to 4 points after having previously avoided a scare against the Netherlands. However, they start as second favourites against an Indian side that had defeated them in all three encounters of the Asia Cup 2025 in Dubai.
