India and Pakistan will battle it out at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmebadad, for World Cup 2023's most anticipated match on Saturday (October 14). Due to the back-to-back wins both sides have recently had, the contest is thought to be more entertaining.

Apart from Naseem Shah, who was ruled out of the competition just before it began, neither of these sides have any late injury concerns. However, one to watch will be Shubman Gill's availability, who recently had dengue and missed the Men in Blue's first two games. 

Since Gill had a staggering record for Gujarat Titans in IPL 2023 at this very venue, he holds the key without a doubt.

Here are the past ODI results of the Narendra Modi Stadium, formerly known as Sardar Patel Stadium.

Having hosted England and New Zealand for the curtain raiser of World Cup 2023, this will be the second time Narendra Modi Stadium will host a match in the tournament. Having taken only 36.2 overs to get there with nine wickets in hand, the Kiwis made a mockery of the 283-run chase then.

From October 1984 to the present, 27 ODIs have been played at Narendra Modi Stadium. It is great news for spectators that all of these matches have produced results, as many contests have been abandoned recently because of bad weather.

For the readers' benefit, do not concentrate on the average first innings score at this venue because the surface used to be a bowler-friendly track in the past. Therefore, expect a high-scoring match, similar to the England versus New Zealand fixture.
