    What's the story

    India will be up against arch-rivals Pakistan, on Wednesday, in their Pool A encounter of the ongoing Asia Cup 2018.

    Given the variety of talented pacers available at Pakistan's disposal, the battle won't be easy for Rohit Sharma-led Indian side.

    One can expect the Pakistan bowlers mixing their line and length.

    To counter them, MS Dhoni is keeping no stones unturned.

    Session

    MSD was seen practising the pull shots often during the net session.

    India are playing against Hong Kong today and then take on their neighbors Pakistan tomorrow.

    There's hardly anytime to get rest and put the thinking caps on.

    Pakistan bowlers will be expected to come hard at MSD and bowl around his ribs.

    Dhoni wants to be ready for the same.

    Dhoni

    MS brings in the stability factor for India

    Dhoni will be looking to bat high up the order and get maximum exposure.

    With Kohli not there, the middle order looks a bit unsure at the moment and that's where someone like MS comes in.

    In the match against Pakistan, the Indian team will need their evergreen hero to make an impact.

    Dhoni's approach against the Pakistan bowlers will be key.

    ODIs
