In seven World Cup encounters since 1992, Pakistan has never clinched a victory against India. Led by Babar Azam, Pakistan faces a formidable challenge against an anticipated record-breaking crowd of over 100,000 supporting the home team. While India trails in the overall ODI head-to-head with 56 wins and 73 losses, recent meetings favor the hosts.
Entering the World Cup as the highest-ranked ODI team, India justified their favorites status by defeating five-time champions Australia by six wickets. This was followed by a commanding eight-wicket victory over Afghanistan, with captain Rohit Sharma achieving a record-breaking seventh World Cup century.
Pakistan has also displayed dominance in their initial two matches, commencing with a win against the Netherlands and later impressively chasing down a 345-run target in their triumph against Sri Lanka.
