India Needs to Stay Sharp

On paper, India is the stronger team, but cricket, especially in T20 format, doesn’t always be the same. UAE might not have the same star power, but teams always often play fearless cricket. A few quick wickets or a good powerplay can turn the match. India will need to stay focused, avoid taking things for granted.
