The International Cricket Council (ICC) recently announced the schedule for the 2023 ODI World Cup which will be played in India from 5 October 2023. India will play its first match against Australia on 8 October at Chennai and it will clash against the arch-rivals Pakistan on 15 October at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad.
Last time India hosted the ODI World Cup in the year 2011 and also broke the 28 years old jinx by winning the World Cup under the leadership of MS Dhoni. This was the second World Cup win of India, the first time India won the World Cup was in 1983 under the captaincy of Kapil Dev but since 2011, India hasn’t been able to win any World Cup and since 2013, it hasn’t won any ICC trophy which brings the team under a huge pressure to end this drought in the ODI World Cup 2023.
After the announcement of the schedule, the skipper of the Indian cricket team, Rohit Sharma issued a statement through a press release of the BCCI in which he talked about the expectations of fans and also promised to give their best in October –November.
Rohit Sharma stated, “It’s going to be a great experience playing in the World Cup at home. India won here 12 years ago, and I know fans nationwide can’t wait for us to take the field this time. This World Cup is going to be very competitive as the game has become faster and the teams are playing more positively than ever before. All this augurs well for fans worldwide, promising them many thrilling moments. We look forward to preparing well and being at our best this October-November.”
Hopefully India will lift the World Cup trophy this time.
