With the big match scheduled to take place on February 15 in Colombo, the commentary added more spice to the rivalry.

How will India play against Pakistan?

Amir questioned Abhishek’s batting ability and called him a one-dimensional player.“From what I’ve seen, if you ask me honestly, I feel he’s just a slogger… I don’t think he’s technically OK,” Amir said on the Pakistan show. “He just stands there and wants all the balls to be thrown in a certain area. I’m only going to consider him a right hitter if I see the ball swing even a little bit and he handles it well.” Amir also suggested that Pakistan bowlers should target Abhishek with bodyline bowling and slower balls as he lacks patience and technique.Meanwhile, Abhishek was racing against time to recover from a serious stomach infection that led to weight loss and hospitalization.Recently, Varun Chakravarthy offered a more positive update, saying, “From what I spoke to him, he looks good, he also practiced today. He told me that he is on his way.”Abhishek has traveled to Colombo with the team and will undergo final fitness tests. India have got off to a perfect start to their campaign, having already won both their matches against USA and Namibia. If they win the match against Pakistan on Sunday, the men in blue will qualify for the Super 8s.
