GEARING up for their Asia Cup Super 4 match against India in Colombo, Sri Lanka, on Sunday (10), Pakistan retained the playing XI that did beat Bangladesh by 7 wickets in Lahore in the previous Super Four clash on Wednesday (6).

Another win over India here will place them firmly on the way to the summit clash on September 17.

Pakistan will enter the match against India with a four-pronged pace attack that includes Shaheen Shah Afridi, Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf and Faheem Ashraf.

The spin department will be marshalled by vice-captain and leg-spinner Shadab Khan with the support of part-time off-spinners Agha Salman and Iftikhar Ahmed.

The league game between the two sides was abandoned due to rain.

Pakistan playing XI vs India: Babar Azam (captain), Shadab Khan (vice-captain), Imam-ul-Haq, Fakhar Zaman, Salman Agha, Iftikhar Ahmed, Mohammad Rizwan (wicket-keeper), Faheem Ashraf, Naseem Shah, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf.
