BCCI President Jay Shah on Saurav Ganguly’s emotional post

Earlier on Tuesday, BCCI Secretary Jay Shah too expressed satisfaction following the release of the schedule and called it a “proud moment” for India to host the ODI World Cup for a fourth time.

“Indian moment of pride! It is a great honor to host the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup for the fourth time. We will highlight our incredible variety and world-class cricket infrastructure against the backdrop of 12 cities. Prepare yourself for a competition you won’t soon forget. Jay Shah tweeted.

The tantalizing match between India and Pakistan will take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on October 15.

India played against Pakistan seven times

In previous ODI World Cup matches, India and Pakistan have met seven times: in 1992, 1996, 1999, 2003, 2011, 2015, and 2019. Pakistan has not yet defeated India in a World Cup match played in the 50-over format. The two bitter adversaries only missed each other’s presence in 1992 and 2007.

IND vs. AUS

India’s opening game against Australia will be a challenging one, where the hosts will aim to exact revenge for their recent loss to the Kangaroos in the ICC World Test Championship final. The matches against South Africa, England, and New Zealand might decide the fate of Rohit Sharma’s team.
