While the senior players still wait for Asia Cup to get underway so that they can lock horns against Pakistan, India A players are all set to take on the neighbors at the Emerging Asia Cup on Wednesday (19 July). The Yash Dhull-led team will take on Pakistan A while aiming to claim the top spot in Group B and end the league stage on a high. 

The players are all ready to take down the team with some international players in the squad. Pakistan A has got the likes of Mohammad Haris, Muhammad Wasim Jr, and Shanazwaz Dahini while India A will bank on their young talents like Abhishek Sharma, captain Dhull, and Sai Sudarshan.

As India A gets ready for Pakistan A challenge, Riyan Parag, Abhishek Sharma, and Sai Sudarshan took a leaf out of Virat Kohli’s historic knock at the Melbourne Cricket Ground last year during the 2022 T20 World Cup. While Sharma reckoned Kohli’s 82* was the best-ever T20I innings for him, Sai Sudarshan called Kohli’s six to Haris Rauf ‘superhuman stuff’. 

Meanwhile, Riyan Parag who idolizes Kohli remembered how he told his friends that Kohli is pulling off something special. 

Notably, both India A and Pakistan A have won their two group matches so far, defeating Nepal and UAE. The two teams look certain to make it to the semifinals. However, this last group-stage game will decide who plays whom in the semis. The match will be live broadcast on Star Sports while the fans can live stream it on Fancode.
