WATCH: Shubman Gill arrives in Ahmedabad prior to India vs Pakistan clash

India and Pakistan are set to revive their historic rivalry in the ODI World Cup 2023 on Saturday, October 14, in Ahmedabad. Shubman Gill, diagnosed with dengue ahead of the tournament, missed India's initial matches. While the Indian squad faced Afghanistan in Delhi, Gill remained in Chennai, where the team played their opening match against Australia. This decision was made by the team management to ensure Gill received proper and consistent treatment.

The cautious approach appears to have paid off, as the young player has recovered swiftly and is optimistic about being available for selection in the highly anticipated clash. Both the Indian and Pakistan teams arrived in Ahmedabad, with Gill making the journey after being cleared by doctors following a brief stay at Kauvery Hospital in Chennai due to low platelet count.

India will be playing against Pakistan on October 14

Both India and Pakistan will enter Saturday's highly anticipated clash with two consecutive wins in the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023. Consequently, one team's undefeated streak will come to an end in Ahmedabad. India holds the upper hand in their ODI World Cup head-to-head record against Pakistan.

The two-time champions have triumphed in all seven previous meetings in the prestigious tournament. India and Pakistan recently faced off twice last month in the Asia Cup. The first match in Pallekele ended in a washout after only one innings of play, while the second encounter in Colombo saw India secure a comprehensive victory by a massive 228-run margin. Until now the Pakistan cricket team have never ever won any match against India in the history of 50 overs World Cups. In the seven matches which both teams have played at World Cups, India have won on all seven occasions.
