Defending champions India national cricket team are set to take on arch-rivals Pakistan national cricket team on Sunday, February 15, in a blockbuster T20 World Cup 2026 clash. The much-anticipated encounter will be played at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo, with the match scheduled to begin at 7:00 PM IST.
Led by Suryakumar Yadav, India have made a strong start to their campaign, registering comfortable wins over Namibia and the USA. The Men in Blue will now look to continue their unbeaten run and strengthen their chances of progressing to the Super Eight stage.
India’s bowling attack will once again rely on the pace of Jasprit Bumrah and the spin wizardry of Varun Chakravarthy. With the bat, Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav have been in impressive form. Kishan recently etched his name in the record books by becoming the first Indian wicketkeeper-batter to score a half-century in a T20 World Cup, surpassing MS Dhoni’s 45 off 33 against South Africa in the inaugural edition.
However, Pakistan head into the contest with momentum of their own, having secured two consecutive victories. Their bowling unit, particularly spinner Usman Tariq, has looked threatening, as demonstrated in their match against the USA.
With both teams unbeaten so far, fans can expect another electrifying chapter in one of cricket’s fiercest rivalries.
