Digital Desk: Before the high-stakes match between India and Pakistan at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, former Indian batter Gautam Gambhir had a special message for the fans. Large crowds of Indian supporters congregated outside the stadium before the match, although few fans of the Pakistan cricket team were present at the scene. After the toss, Gambhir spoke on Star Sports and asked the audience to provide the Pakistani squad with some support, saying that they were in India for the World Cup and not to treat them disrespectfully.
"Support your team, but remember that they are guests; don't misbehave with them. We must keep in mind that they are guests and are here to participate in the World Cup," stated Gambhir.
After Pakistani supporters from all over the world were unable to get visas for the match, the Narendra Modi Stadium was a sea of blue because of the largely Indian crowd.
In a highly anticipated World Cup match that is anticipated to draw 120,000 spectators, India captain Rohit Sharma had earlier won the toss and chosen to bowl first against Pakistan.
Shubman Gill, the opening batsman, rejoins the squad and replaces Ishan Kishan, who missed the first two games due to dengue fever.
Favourites India enters the game unmarked after victories over Afghanistan and five-time champion Australia.
Pakistan enters the game unaltered from their previous victory after winning both of their matches against the Netherlands and Sri Lanka.
The Indian squad includes: Rohit Sharma (captain), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (wk), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, and Mohammed Siraj.
Pakistan: Imam-ul-Haq, Abdullah Shafique, Babar Azam (captain), Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Saud Shakeel, Iftikhar Ahmed, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Nawaz, Hasan Ali, Shaheen Shah Afridi, and Haris Rauf
