ICC Champions Trophy 2017: 5 reasons why Pakistan can beat India in the final

#3 Ability of the spinners to choke the opposition

Imad Wasim has come back well after Pakistan’s opening game against India

In their first game, Indian batsmen didn’t allow the spinners settle into a rhythm during the middle phase of their innings. Nevertheless, the tables have turned and Pakistan have turned that weakness into strength.

Imad Wasim was taken to the cleaners by Hardik Pandya and the other Indian batsmen, but he came back with a spell of 8-0-20-2 against South Africa. Shadab Khan has also been able to put a lid on the scoring with an economy of 4.66 on some good batting wickets.

In their last game, they managed to get an in-form English batting lineup on the mat, which shows the form their spinners are in. To win the final, Wasim and Co have to showcase the same skills to take the sting out of the Indian batting.
