Champions Trophy 2025 IND vs PAK: Pitch, Weather Report, Head To Head, Probable 11, Streaming Details: India and Pakistan will face each other again in intense rivalry on February 23 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium during the much-anticipated clash at the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The event is part of Group A and bears great national importance for both these countries, with India looking forward to gaining entry into the semi-finals and Pakistan trying to keep its tournament alive.
Pitch and Weather Report
Dubai International Cricket Stadium is famous for its balanced and all-time good pitches, which support both types of cricketers. The pitch should be getting slower and drier during the match, so turning would become easier for the spinners in the middle overs. Weather would be ideal with a temperature of 23-31 degrees and partly cloudy conditions. Although earlier in the week, it made a mark by raining, it would not rain during the match time.
