IND vs PAK Probable Playing XI: India vs Pakistan ICC World Cup 2023 Lineup, Injury Updates, and More

The highly-anticipated clash of the ICC World Cup 2023 is finally here. India and Pakistan are set to face off on Saturday, October 14, at the Narendra Modi International Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad. This encounter between the arch-rivals, often referred to as “IND vs PAK,” has cricket fans around the world buzzing with excitement.

Team India commenced their ICC World Cup 2023 campaign with a resounding victory against Australia, winning by six wickets. They then faced Afghanistan and secured another dominant win, this time by eight wickets. Rohit Sharma’s captaincy and the squad’s stellar performances set the stage for what promises to be an electrifying clash with Pakistan.

The Indian bowling trio of Ravindra Jadeja, Jasprit Bumrah, and Kuldeep Yadav delivered a formidable challenge to the Australian batters. Meanwhile, KL Rahul’s batting prowess was on full display as he scored 97 runs from 115 balls in their first World Cup 2023 match.

However, it was in the match against Afghanistan that Team India etched their names into the history books. Captain Rohit Sharma achieved a significant milestone by surpassing the legendary ‘Master Blaster,’ Sachin Tendulkar’s record for the most centuries in the ODI World Cup. In addition to Rohit’s remarkable feat, Virat Kohli’s contribution in the form of a half-century helped him surpass Tendulkar’s record for the highest runs in the World Cup (T20I and ODI).

On the other hand, Pakistan has displayed excellent performance in the ICC World Cup 2023 so far. They commenced their campaign against the Netherlands and convincingly defeated the Dutch side by 81 runs. In their second match, they outperformed Sri Lanka, securing victory by six wickets. What was particularly noteworthy was Pakistan’s successful chase of a formidable target of 345 runs in just 48.2 overs. Mohammad Rizwan played a pivotal role in this triumph, scoring an impressive 131 runs from 121 balls, while Hasan Ali’s four-wicket haul further solidified Pakistan’s dominance.

However, the history of encounters between these two cricketing giants in the World Cup tells a different story. In the last seven games, Pakistan has not managed to secure a single victory against India since 1992, adding to the anticipation and intensity of this match.
