BCCI to organize special ceremony before India vs Pakistan World Cup 2023 match in Ahmedabad

The high voltage clash between India and Australia will be played on 14th October in Ahmedabad.
Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) didn’t have any opening ceremonies to kickstart the ongoing ICC World Cup 2023, which began on October 5 in Ahmedabad. But the board will rectify it ahead of the India vs Pakistan match on October 14 at the Narendra Modi Stadium.
The first match between New Zealand and England began without much fanfare, with fans upset about not seeing something special to mark the start of the event. The World Cup tournaments are known for having wonderful and exciting opening events.
Even BCCI excels at organizing such spectacles, as the organization had done the same before IPL 2023 began earlier this year. Fans and experts were both unhappy with BCCI doing a cold opening for the England vs New Zealand encounter.
India and Pakistan's rivalry in cricket is one of the fiercest on the globe, and matches between the two countries draw huge audiences throughout the world. India have a wonderful record in ODI World Cup matches against Pakistan. India have won all seven of their matches against Pakistan in the ICC Men's ODI World Cup meetings between the two countries.
