The 13th ICC Men’s ODI World Cup is about to start in India on October 5. Ten top teams will compete in the group matches, all aiming for that cherished trophy.
Interestingly, the 2023 World Cup will begin with a match mirroring the 2019 final – a game between England and New Zealand. One of the most awaited matches, India vs Pakistan, will be on October 14. It’s set to happen at the famous Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
As we near the start of the World Cup, Chris Gayle, the famous West Indies batsman, shared his thoughts on which teams might reach the finals.
Chris Gayle, during a chat with Star Sports Network, feels that India and Pakistan could be the two teams to watch in the World Cup 2023 final.
Pakistan entered the World Cup scene as a team to watch. However, they faced a setback when their leading fast bowler, Naseem Shah, had to leave because of a shoulder issue. Their recent practice match loss to New Zealand, with their bowling lineup having a tough time, adds to the concerns.
India, in contrast, is looking strong. Their players are in excellent form, and their fast bowlers seem to be performing very well. Fans are wondering: Can India end their long wait for an ICC trophy this time?
