Pakistan fans trolled their players and expressed their disappointment after Pakistan's heavy loss to India in Manchester on Sunday.

As India lock horns with arch-rivals Pakistan for the 7th time in a World Cup, here some key battles to look out for in Manchester.

Virat Kohli said that he isn't focused on the competition with Mohammad Amir ahead of the clash against Pakistan.

Spilling the beans on the scandal which tarnished the image of Pakistan cricket, Abdul Razzaq narrated the Mohammad Aamir incident

From the 15-player provisional squad, which was announced on April 18, Pakistan selectors have replaced Abid Ali, Faheem Ashraf and Junaid Khan.

The thrashing by English batsmen in a T20 International and two ODIs has alarmed the selectors, who were initially not keen on picking Amir for the showpiece owing to lack of form.

Amir is the only change in the Pakistan's 15-man squad that whitewashed New Zealand and Australia 3-0 in the United Arab Emirates last year.

Keeping in mind the fast pitches in South Africa, the squad includes only one specialist spinner in Shadab Khan, while Shaheen Afridi, Hasan Ali and Usman Shinwari are the three fast bowlers along with Amir.

Amir has been left out of the squad since before the Asia Cup in the UAE in September, and was not considered for the Test series against Australia and New Zealand, also in the UAE.

Besides Maqsood there were no other surprises apart from left-arm pacer Amir again failing to win the selectors' confidence. He was ignored for the just-concluded series against Australia which Pakistan won.

Amir was also dropped for the ongoing two-test series against Australia. The left-arm fast bowler hasn't taken a wicket in his last five ODIs.

The selectors have recalled left-arm fast bowler Wahab Riaz after he was dropped for this year's one-off Test against Ireland.

Sehwag started playing mind games with Pakistan players and take a sly dig after some of them joined the ‘Break the Beard’ Challenge which was initially started by Indian players.

When Mohammad Amir was asked about Virat Kohli, he said bowling to the Indian skipper is easier than "fatherhood".

Amir will now be available to feature in Pakistan's four-day game against Kent, beginning April 28 in Canterbury.

Mohammad Amir claimed three wickets to guide Pakistan to an 82-run win over West Indies in the second Twenty20 International in Karachi.

Rubbishing rumours that he is thinking of giving up his career in the longest format of the game, the 25-year-old said that he had discussed the matter with Pakistan head coach Mickey Arthur about managing his workload.

The 25-year-old Amir was left out from the five-match ODI series against Sri Lanka after he sustained a shin injury during the two-match Test series.

Both Amir and Kohli are fierce competitors on the cricket field and always look to dominate each other but they also have plenty of mutual respect and admiration which is well documented.

The left-arm pacer who has been an automatic selection for Pakistan in all three formats of the game since his return to international cricket had hurt his right shin during the second Test in Abu Dubai.
