Cricket fans are in for a treat as the ODI World Cup 2023 continues to unfold. Pakistan’s captain, Babar Azam, recently shared his admiration for the Indian cricket stadiums that host this prestigious event. In a cricketing world where India is often considered the epicenter of the sport, Babar’s appreciation holds special significance as he experiences the unique aura of these iconic venues for the first time.
The right-handed batter from Lahore was all smiles as he spoke about the experience of playing in India. He marveled at the distinctive atmosphere and character of each Indian stadium, emphasizing that every venue offered something special. “We are here for the first time, and we do not get these opportunities a lot. Every stadium in India has a different vibe and a different feel. So, trying to enjoy that wherever we go,” Babar Azam expressed in a Star Sports video.
As for Pakistan’s journey in the ODI World Cup 2023, it’s been a rollercoaster ride. They began with a resounding 81-run victory against the Netherlands, showcasing their mettle in the tournament. Following that, they added another feather to their cap by defeating Sri Lanka with six wickets, fueling their aspirations of making a strong impact in the competition.

They are determined to secure their position in the competition and set their sights on World Cup glory.
