The opening ceremony of the ODI World Cup 2023 was cancelled but there is the possibility of a gala program ahead of the clash between India and Pakistan.

Team India will aim to continue their domination over Pakistan in ODI World Cup 2023

The first match in Pallekele was called off due to rain after only one innings. However, the second match between the two arch-rivals, which took place in Colombo, ended with a comprehensive win for Rohit Sharma and Co. by 228 runs. Babar Azam-led Pakistan didn't have a memorable Asia Cup campaign and had to endure two successive losses in the warm-up games ahead of the World Cup. However, they managed to beat the Netherlands in their opening fixture in the showpiece event and followed it up with another emphatic win against Sri Lanka.

The former champions will be quietly confident of ending their seven-match losing streak against India in ODI World Cups while Team India will aim to extend their unbeaten ODI World Cup domination further against the neighbours. Meanwhile, the 'Men in Blue' have been in fine form, winning the Asia Cup and beating Australia by six wickets in their opening match of the ODI World Cup 2023. They will face Afghanistan on Wednesday, October 11, before renewing their rivalry against Pakistan.
