Nizakat Khan's men are yet to open play their first group match of the tournament. Meanwhile, India have already hit the ground running by winning their first match against arch-rivals Pakistan in Dubai. They crossed the finish line with five wickets and two balls to spare in what was a thrilling encounter.
