As the World Cup 2023 kicked off on October 5, 10 teams competed against each other for the coveted trophy. Now the competition has only two contenders left, with India and Australia—two of the giants in world cricket—going head-to-head on Sunday (November 19) with eyes on the prize.

It's no surprise that Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium, the largest stadium in the world, will take center stage. The likes of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Shubman Gill, and Shreyas Iyer, among many others, in the Men in Blue squad will battle it out against an Australian juggernaut consisting of Mitchell Starc, David Warner, Adam Zampa, Mitchell Marsh, and others.

Who will win? Can Rohit Sharma deliver the same as what MS Dhoni did at home 12 years ago? As ardent Indian fans used to talk about Wankhede Stadium week after week since 2011, will Narendra Modi Stadium receive the same cheers?

Who will be the hero this time at Narendra Modi Stadium? In addition, what are the ODI records here, and how will the surface behave on the ultimate day? Let us have a look at the overall numbers here.

Before this crucial match, Australia and India had each played once in Ahmedabad during the 2023 World Cup. More interestingly, both India and Australia’s fixtures at this venue were against their arch-rivals, Pakistan and England, respectively. The finalists enjoyed comfortable victories in their respective fixtures, and hence, it is needless to say that they were well aware of the conditions and have already proved themselves here.
