Sharing his thoughts on the India vs Pakistan clash at the T20 World Cup, which will be played on Sunday evening, Vaughan ranked the Men In Blue as a strong side as compared to Pakistan, but went on to add that the latter can upstage any team in the showpiece event. The ex-cricketer shared his views on Twitter.

Both India and Pakistan will look to start their campaign in the T20 World Cup on a rousing note. India have maintained a perfect record against Pakistan in the World Cups, which stands 7-0 in 50-over format, while 5-0 record in the shorter format of the game.

Vaughan also reacted on the global viewership of the clash, which is said to be one billion.

Not just the former English cricketer, but spin legend Shane Warne also reacted to the development, calling the numbers ‘insane’.

The blockbuster event will also see Virat Kohli and Babar Azam, cricket's two most premier batters, having their own individual contest. This is also the first time Kohli and Babar are going head to head as a captain.

Kohli, who is leading Team India in his final T20 assignment, will look to maintain the perfect record against Pakistan in the World Cups. Babar, on the other hand, can achieve yet another landmark feat but this time as a captain by beating India in the showpiece event.
