The stage is set for yet another India vs Pakistan encounter as the two Asian powerhouses will collide in the Women's Asia Cup match at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Saturday. Team India has been outstanding in the tournament, with Smriti Mandhana leading from the front.

India have already qualified for the next round after beating Thailand and Hong Kong. The Harmanpreet Kaur-led side has a stellar net run rate of +5.775, and a win against Pakistan will further bolster their chances of winning the coveted tournament.

On the other hand, Pakistan have played just a solitary game in the tournament, and they were victorious in it. However, the Women in Green will start as the second favourites in the marquee clash, and they need to be at their absolute best to stop the Indian juggernaut.

Ahead of the riveting Asia Cup match, we take a look at the IND W Vs PAK W Dubai International Stadium pitch report and weather update.
