The International Cricket Council (ICC) has released the official poster for the highly anticipated 2023 ODI World Cup scheduled to take place in India from October to November.
The poster features the prestigious trophy flanked by the captains of the participating teams. Australia’s Pat Cummins and England’s Jos Buttler stand closest to the trophy, representing their teams’ strong ODI World Cup history. India’s Rohit Sharma, Afghanistan’s Hashmatullah Shahidi, Sri Lanka’s Dasun Shanaka, and New Zealand’s Tom Latham complete the left side of the poster.
On the right side are Pakistan’s Babar Azam, South Africa’s Temba Bavuma, Bangladesh’s Tamim Iqbal, and Zimbabwe’s Craig Ervine. The tournament will commence with England taking on New Zealand on October 5 in Ahmedabad, with the final also scheduled to be held at the same venue. The highly awaited clash between arch-rivals India and Pakistan will take place in Ahmedabad on October 15.
India’s quest to win the ODI World Cup on home soil since 2011 will begin with a match against Australia a week earlier. The event promises exciting encounters and will include day-night matches for the semifinals and the final, with reserve days scheduled for all three matches.
