Pakistan and India launch their T20 World Cup 2021 campaign in Dubai on Sunday, the first time the two sides will lock horns since the 2019 World Cup league match in Manchester more than two years ago.
The rain-disturbed encounter at a packed Old Trafford ended in a routine win for India.
But on Sunday, a completely different environment – from gloomy Manchester to dry and sunny Dubai – awaits the two sides as they meet for the ninth time in T20 cricket.
Tickets for the game, as expected, were sold out within hours of going on sale.
