India vs Pakistan Live Score, Asia Cup 2023: Rohit Sharma, Virat ...

Ind vs Pak Live Score, Asia Cup 2023: Arch rivals India and Pakistan will face off against each other for a much-anticipated encounter at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, Kandy on Saturday. The two Asian rivals had last faced each other in one-day cricket during the 2019 ODI World Cup, where India defeated their neighbours convincingly by 89 runs. 

However, the Babar Azam-led Pakistani side is looking strong and is currently the number 1 ranked international team. Pakistan had also convincingly defeated Nepal during the inaugural match of Asia Cup 2023 by 238 runs owing to centuries by skipper Babar Azam and Iftikhar Ahmed along with an exceptional bowling performance by all-rounder Shadab Khan. 

India, on the other hand, will be fielding a full-strength side in a long time with pacers Jasprit Bumrah and Prasidh Krishna and middle-order batter Shreyas Iyer returning from injury. Notably, Bumrah had also led the Indian side for the three-match T20 series against Ireland. 

Pakistan bowlers started the game on a dangerous note with Shaheen Afridi taking out skipper Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Haris Rauf dismissed Shreyas Iyer and for now Ishan Kishan and Shubman Gill are attempting to stabilise the innings.

According to the rules set by the International Cricket Council (ICC), if the match is abandoned or doesn't start due to adverse weather conditions, the points get segregated equally between the two teams, which means both India and Pakistan will receive one point each.

On the contrary, as per the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern (DLS) method, both teams must play at least 20 overs for the result to be valid. In case the team batting second cannot receive its full quota of overs, the score of the team batting first is multiplied by the percentage factor for the number of overs to be bowled to the team batting second.
