Fans went into a frenzy as cricket’s governing body posted a photo of Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan holding the ODI World Cup trophy on social media. The image was posted with a caption that read, “King Khan #CWC23 Trophy It’s nearly here …”
Something interesting must be brewing in India after the Apex Cricket Council collaborated with one of India’s biggest celebrities. With the cryptic caption with which the picture was posted, fans sense some news or interview that might come out sooner rather than later. This is all just speculation and it could be anything, and with ‘King Khan’ being part of it, it is destined to be spectacular.
ODI World Cup 2023 just two months away!
In 2023, India will host the ODI World Cup 2023, which will include the ten countries who qualified from the ODI Super League as well as the ODI World Cup qualifiers. The tournament is scheduled to take place from October 5 to November 19. On October 8, India will face Australia to open their campaign, while on October 15, the Rohit Sharma-led team will face Pakistan at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium.
The tournament will begin with a match involving England as well as New Zealand, the winners of the previous iteration. However, there are still a lot of mouthwatering matches left in the league round.
While the match between India and Pakistan is undoubtedly the biggest on the round-robin stage schedule, Australia’s match against South Africa on October 13 in Lucknow is certainly a significant one. The Australians will be expecting a change of fortune after the African nation won a thrilling match in the last tournament.
On October 20, Pakistan, the team that will inevitably be subject to the spotlight after a lot of debate took place concerning their participation in the tournament, will play Australia in Bengaluru. The following day, in Mumbai, England will play South Africa which is going to be one riveting affair.
