When India and Pakistan appear on the same field at the same time, there is always a different buzz associated with the match, with fans investing their emotions to support their team.

This time, in one of the biggest rivalries in cricket, the atmosphere will certainly be different after India defied the odds to stand victorious in the previous edition of the tournament against the archrivals.

In their previous faceoff in 2022, the "Green Shirts" were far ahead in the game, The "Men in Blue" needed 28 runs in eight deliveries to win the game.

In Haris Rauf's over, Indian stalwart Virat Kohli took a step back and smashed a massive six right over the head of the Pakitsan's pacer. In an emotion-packed game, commentator Gerard Whateley delivered the iconic "That is a shot of an emperor" line to describe Kohli's masterclass.

He tonked another maximum on the next ball, which laid the foundation for a successful 160-run chase for India. The match lived up to its hype, and the fans will be expecting another cracker of a match.

Before the much-anticipated clash, India will play their opening T20 World Cup 2024 game against Ireland on June 5. On the other hand, Pakistan will begin their campaign with a match against the USA on June 6.
