India will face Pakistan on October 14 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. It will be a great contest between a strong Indian batting unit and Pakistan’s bowling line-up.
Ahead of the much-awaited game, former Pakistani players Wasim Akram and Misbah Ul Haq issued a Rohit Sharma warning to Pakistani bowlers after the Indian skipper smashed 131 against Afghanistan.

Rohit, who struck a duck against Australia, came to form at the right time as he scored 131 off 84 balls and broke several records after the knock.
Misbah remarked that Pakistani bowlers would be confused about where to bowl to him as Rohit hits shots all over the ground.
“Rohit Sharma was beautiful against Afghanistan. He played aggressively but risk-free. He had a lot more time than the other batters. Kohli scored a fifty, but Rohit was a different beast,” remarked Wasim Akram.
Meanwhile Misbah remarked, “Ye sab dekhne k baad mujhe lagta hai baki sare teams pe bohut pressure hoga. Ball karna kaha pe hai? (There will be a lot of pressure on every team on where you bowl to Rohit?)
Wasim Akram quickly added that the bowlers would think, how do you escape his onslaught? “Bachna kaise hai? (How do you survive this onslaught?) It’ll be very difficult for the Pakistan bowlers.”
