The blockbuster clash of the ongoing ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 between India and Pakistan is already generating immense excitement and anticipation among fans from both countries.
Ahead of the eagerly awaited high-voltage clash on Saturday, October 14, in Ahmedabad, former Pakistan captain and commentator Ramiz Raja picked the winner of this amazing showdown.
Notably, Raja is currently in India for the commentary duties at CWC 2023. Raza, the former PCB chief, said that Team India is the clear favorite to beat Pakistan at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Saturday, as they have all their bases covered and boast of the home crowd.
Ramiz Raja told Jio Cinema, “This game, it's played off the field as much as it is on the field. It's a huge game. India will start as favorite, three is no doubt about it. They have all their bases covered when it comes to batting, bowling, and in terms of fitness.”
The former Pakistani captain said that the Babar Azam-led side must raise their level massively if they want to surprise the whole cricketing world on Saturday. He also suggested the Men in Green take on the Men in Blue with a winning mindset to outsmart the hosts.
Raja signed off by saying, “Pakistan has to raise their level massively if they are to do well. But the win against Sri Lanka, the record chase would have made a huge difference to Pakistan in their dressing room, they have to think of winning and go on with an uncluttered mind.”
