Historically, in the Champions Trophy context, Pakistan has a slight edge over India with a 3-2 lead in their last five encounters.<br \/>Basit Ali, sharing his analysis on his YouTube channel, quantified his prediction, suggesting a 70% chance of victory for India and a 30% chance for Pakistan. <br \/><span class=\"strong \" data-ua-type=\"1\" onclick=\"stpPgtnAndPrvntDefault(event)\">Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/youtube.com\/@toisports\/\" rel=\"noopener nofollow noreferrer\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"strong \" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\">SUBSCRIBE NOW!<\/a><br \/>He attributed this prediction to the comparative experience of the Indian team, highlighting the pivotal roles of players like <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/virat-kohli\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\">Virat Kohli<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/rohit-sharma\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\">Rohit Sharma<\/a>. <br \/>According to Ali, the form of these key players could significantly influence the match&#8217;s outcome.<br \/>&#8220;70 per cent India 30 per cent Pakistan. India have a more experienced side. If Virat and Rohit are not in form, then the game will be even,&#8221; Basit said.<br \/>The last time these two teams met in the Champions Trophy was in 2017, where Pakistan secured a notable victory against India by 180 runs in the final. <\/p>\n<p>This upcoming match in Dubai is eagerly awaited by fans, given the historical context and the recent performances of both teams.<br \/>In preparation for the Champions Trophy, both India and Pakistan have scheduled One Day International (ODI) matches. <br \/>India are set to play a series of three ODIs against England, starting in Nagpur, followed by matches in Cuttack and concluding in Ahmedabad on February 12. This series is part of India&#8217;s preparation strategy leading into the tournament.<br \/>Pakistan, on the other hand, are participating in a tri-series involving South Africa and New Zealand, aimed at bolstering their defence of the title.<\/div>\n<p><script>\nvar _mfq = window._mfq || [];\n_mfq.push([\"setVariable\", \"toi_titan\", window.location.href]);\n!(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    function loadFBEvents(isFBCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isFBCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        if (f.fbq) return;\n        n = f.fbq = function() {\n          n.callMethod ? n.callMethod(...arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n        };\n        if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n        n.push = n;\n        n.loaded = !0;\n        n.version = '2.0';\n        n.queue = [];\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js', n, t, s);\n      fbq('init', '593671331875494');\n      fbq('track', 'PageView');\n    };\n    function loadGtagEvents(isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      var id = document.getElementById('toi-plus-google-campaign');\n      if (id) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        t.id = 'toi-plus-google-campaign';\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/www.googletagmanager.com\/gtag\/js?id=AW-877820074', n, t, s);\n    };\n    function loadSurvicateJs(allowedSurvicateSections = []){\n      const section =  window.location.pathname.split('\/')[1]\n      const isHomePageAllowed = window.location.pathname === '\/' && allowedSurvicateSections.includes('homepage')\n      if(allowedSurvicateSections.includes(section) || isHomePageAllowed){\n        (function(w) {\n         function setAttributes() {\n                    var prime_user_status = window.isPrime ?
