The India vs Pakistan match will be played in Dubai on Feb 23, after the BCCI refused to send the national side to the neighbouring country. “We have a very good side and they have done well in recent times but the real task now is to not only win the Champions Trophy but also defeat our arch-rival, India in the upcoming match in Dubai. The entire nation stands behind them,” Sharif said.
