Below, we have listed 3 Pakistani players who can cause problems for India.

1. Sahibzada Farhan

Sahibzada Farhan is one of Pakistan’s finest talents. He was in excellent form in the 2026 T20 World Cup, scoring half a century in the first two games. He scored 47 points and 73 points respectively against the Netherlands and the United States. In the first game, Farhan single-handedly won the game from his opponent.

Sahibzada Farhan has a good record against India. He scored two fifties in three games with the Men in Blue and scored 155 runs in three games with an average of 51.66 and a strike rate of 122. He performed well in the Asia Cup against Suryakumar Yadav’s side. In his current form, he could cause problems for the Indian bowlers.

2. Faheem Ashraf

Faheem Ashraf showed his talent in his first game against the Netherlands. His 29 off 11 balls sealed victory for the Men in Green, who looked in trouble as they chased 148 at 114/7 in the first match against the Netherlands. He didn’t pitch in the first game.

Faheem has a decent record against India, taking four wickets in three matches. His bowling average against the Men in Blue is 15 with an economy of 7.50. His batting ability at the end of the innings will be crucial against an Indian team that has a good bowling attack.

3. Usman Tariq

Usman Tariq is a great discovery for Pakistan. The enigmatic spinner wreaked havoc among the batsmen with his bowling style. He was selected as the bowler for Pakistan against the United States last night. The spinner picked three wickets and scored just 27 runs in his four overs and bowled brilliantly.

Usman Tariq has picked at least one wicket in 23 consecutive T20 innings, a record for a Pakistan bowler. He is yet to play a match against India, so his mystique will cause problems for Indian batsmen on Sri Lankan pitches, which are known for dry wickets, and he can bring good spin.
