PARIS : Form clashes with pedigree when Ireland look to bury their World Cup jinx forever against New Zealand at the Stade de France on Saturday in one of the most eagerly anticipated World Cup quarter-finals for many years.
The much-awaited encounter between arch-rivals India and Pakistan is all set for action as the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) indicated that there are no signs of rainfall on Saturday in Ahmedabad. Earlier, there were predictions of drizzling in the southern parts of Ahmedabad, however, the latest statement of IMD said that the sky will be clear and no possibility of rain in the next 48 hours. The rivalry between India and Pakistan in cricket is one of the most fierce in the world, with matches between the two countries receiving significant global viewership. After registering two back-to-back wins, India riding on high confidence will face traditional rival Pakistan at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Saturday.
Babar Azam does not believe that the outcome of the much-anticipated India-Pakistan clash in World Cup on Saturday will have an impact on his captaincy. The captains of both the teams feel pressure of the big-game, especially when losing isn't an option for fans from both sides of the border. Babar, though, looked unperturbed. "I never worry, that because of this match I will lose my captaincy. Whatever God has written for me - I will get. I will get what I deserve. I didn't get the captaincy because of one match and I will not lose it because of one match," Babar, who certainly wasn't amused with the question, replied with an air of disdain.
New Zealand restricted Bangladesh to a below-par 245-9 in their World Cup game in Chennai on Friday, as pace bowlers Lockie Ferguson, Trent Boult and Matt Henry ran riot to put the 2019 runners-up in a strong position to secure a third successive victory.
David Gray admits he might not have scored the biggest goal of his career which saw him crowned a Hibs legend - because he was so knackered.
Indian cricket team skipper Rohit Sharma said that there is "99 per cent change" of Shubman Gill playing against Pakistan in the much-anticipated Cricket World Cup 2023 clash. Gill missed the first two matches of the Cricket World Cup 2023 against Australia and Afghanistan due to illness as he was reportedly suffering from dengue. However, he travelled to Ahmedabad with the team and he even took part in a batting practice session on Thursday. This will be the Cricket World Cup debut for Gill who has impressed across all three formats in the past year.
Pakistan cricket team legend Shoaib Akhtar faced massive trolling on social media following his post on the Cricket World Cup 2023 match between India and Pakistan in Ahmedabad on Saturday. The former fast bowler posted a picture of himself from his playing days along with the caption - "History shall repeat itself tomorrow". The Indian cricket team fans were quick to remind Akhtar about India's impressive record against Pakistan when it comes to the Cricket World Cup. India and Pakistan have faced each other 7 times in total and India have won all 7 matches. Shoaib then posted a picture of himself dismissing Sachin Tendulkar during a Test match but as the trolling continued, Akhtar decided to delete the post.
