Team India: Former India cricketer and selector Saba Karim shared his thoughts on the upcoming India-Pakistan match of the Women's World Cup and discussed India’s preparations, major challenges, and key areas to monitor as the tournament advances.

India have hit the ground running, beating Sri Lanka by 59 runs in the tournament opener last week. And now they match up against another Asian rival with big dreams, Pakistan, who suffered a defeat at the hands of Bangladesh in their tournament opener.

“There will be pressure. That’s why India vs Pakistan has become such a big clash, even in the Women’s World Cup. Otherwise, it wouldn’t matter as much. India has played Pakistan before and generally, done well. But because of the so-called controversies that surround such matches, I’m sure the Indian team management and players have prepared simulations to perform under pressure," Karim said on JioHotstar.
