India have enjoyed an unbeaten run in Super Six Group Two, winning all three of their matches so far. However, the clash against Pakistan remains crucial, with semifinal qualification still on the line. Pakistan are placed third in the group with two wins and one loss, and a defeat for India could force qualification to be decided on net run rate. England, having won all four of their Super Six matches, have already sealed the top spot and progressed to the semifinals.

In their first Super Six match, India produced a commanding performance against hosts Zimbabwe, winning by 204 runs.
