India will now face Oman in their last group group match before meeting Pakistan again on Sunday in its Super Four confrontation.The confrontation of the group stadium between India and Pakistan was overshadowed by a handshake controversy, which has become the biggest discussion point of the tournament.

I have always approached him against Pakistan,” Kuldeep said at the pre-match press conference before the match against Oman.“My rhythm is defined now. I am in good pace. At first, I faced difficulties. The counter is perfect for the spinners-even better than the counters of the Champions Trophy,” he added.India will face Oman on Friday in Abu Dhabi.Kuldeep has been so far in the two games of India in the competition after warming up the bench in the five-game test series against England, which ended with a 2-2 draw. He picked up seven counters in the two Asian Cup games he played.
“” The challenges are still there when you play after a long break. Playing continuous helps you stay in rhythm, but it’s difficult when you don’t get enough playing time. However, it was an excellent learning experience. In the Duleep trophy, I went without a counter, but it was precious for me to play so many overtime, “said the spinner.When he asked him questions about the approach of India aimed at opting for an additional depth of strikers on the tour in England and his communication with head coach Gautam Gambhir, Kuldeep replied: “Clear communication (there was a clear communication). In four games, I was not playing, but the team needed a throat.“”
