The two countries have faced each other 15 times which means that there are 7 wins for India and 5 victories by Pakistani side

India is expected to have an advantage in this match because their top order has been scoring runs left right and centre

but the Pakistanis may get some support from what's home ground for them- Dubai International Cricket Stadium

The teams will likely field first on Sunday evening - India needs just a draw to take back the ICC Women's World Twenty20 trophy that they lost last year

India is expected to have the advantage in Group A without their top two players, but it will still be difficult for them

Pakistan has some young guns who might just give India a run for its money though- Rishab Pant and Deepak Hooda

while Arshdeep Singh can provide covers at both positions should one of yours get injured before game time begins!
