Anil Patel, the secretary of the Gujarat Cricket Association (GCA), has suggested that the privileged holders of golden tickets will be in attendance to witness the game unfold.

Notably, the Indian Cricket Board has extended priority passes to cricket legends like Sachin Tendulkar, Rajinikanth, and Amitabh Bachchan in advance of the tournament’s commencement. The celebrated singer, Arjit Singh, is also anticipated to be a part of this event.

The proceedings are set to kick off at 1:10 p.m. Pakistan Time, concluding at 1:40 p.m., with children taking on the roles of mascots and escorting the teams onto the field.

It’s worth noting that Pakistan and India, arch-rivals, have previously clashed seven times in the ICC World Cup, with Pakistan yet to secure a victory in any of those encounters.

Meanwhile, Babar Azam and his team are determined to overturn this losing streak against their arch-rivals in the mega event, having already secured victories over the Netherlands and Sri Lanka in the ongoing World Cup.
