Notably, India is coming into this encounter against Pakistan after defeating their arch-rivals thrice on three instances in the recently concluded Asia Cup 2025 campaign, which India successfully won in Dubai.
Moreover, in the last 10 games between these two sides across the limited-over formats, India came out on top in eight instances, while Pakistan secured a lone win in the ICC T20 World Cup 2021, with the other encounter ending in a no-result.
"I think the way we played in the last Asia Cup, we didn't play one-sided. We played and fought till the end. We didn't play a one-sided match till then end and hopefully this time against we’ll play a wonderful game," Farhan said after the game against the USA.
For the unversed, Farhan has an exceptional record against the Men In Blue, scoring 155 runs in only three games with two half-centuries at an average of 51.67. In the Asia Cup 2025 campaign, he tackled the Indian pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah pretty well, scoring maximums with ease.
"I think when you make runs you are confident. I am also very confident and the way the last two innings have gone, I'm very confident. It's a normal match. We'll play like a normal match. We won't put it in our head that this is an India – Pakistan match, it is a normal match and we will play it like a normal match," he added.
Farhan was awarded the player of the match for his match-winning 73-run knock off 41 balls with six fours and five sixes at a strike rate of 178.05 against the USA on Tuesday, February 10.
