The recent 3-0 whitewash of India by New Zealand has sparked a debate about the potential outcome of a Test series between India and Pakistan. Former England captain Michael Vaughan and Pakistan legend Wasim Akram ಞhave suggested that Pakistan could now dominate India on turning traಞcks.
Pakistan can now beat India, opines Michael Vaughan
While commentating during the Australia vs Pakistan first ODI, Vaughan highlighted the exciting prospect of an India-Pakistan Test series, stating: “I would want to see a Test series between India and Pakistan. It will be massive. It will be good for the game, for two cricket-crazy nations.” He further added that Pakistan, w🍬ith thei🔯r strong spin attack, could now challenge India on their own turf.
“Pakistan can now beat India on the turners,” stated Vaughan.

Akram echoed Vaughan’s sentiments, emphasizing Pakistan’s recent success against England on turning pitches. “Pakistan have a chance to beat India in Tests now on a spinning track. They have been hammered by New Zealand 3-0 at home,” he said.
India’s recent struggles against spin have exposed vulnerabilities in their batting lineup. Meanwhile, the likes of Noman Ali and Sajid Khan have proven to be formꦇidable opponents for any batting side, as demonstrated by their performances in the Pakistan vs England Test ෴series at home.
IND vs PAK Test record
India and Pakistan last faced each other in a Test series in 2008, with India emerging victorious at home by a margin of 1-0. Across 59 Test matches between the two sides, Pakistan holds a lead in the head-to-head record with 12 wins, while India has claimed victo🐻ry in nine matches. A total of 38 encounters have ended in draws.
