The Indian team has shifted its World Cup 2023 base from Ahmedabad to Pune for their subsequent challenge against Bangladesh. A day after blanking arch-rivals Pakistan by seven wickets at the Narendra Modi Stadium, the ‘Men in Blue’ were seen making their way to their Pune team hotel.

The Indian team, led by Rohit Sharma, has completed their journey from Ahmedabad to Pune for their upcoming World Cup 2023 fixture against Bangladesh. About four days prior to their match, the entire team management were welcomed in Pune to a round of applause from cheering Indian fans at the airport, as they made their way to the team hotel.

In a video shared by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on their social media platforms, star batter Shreyas Iyer can be seen metaphorically urging Indian fans to follow their favorite team to Pune for their next chapter of the ongoing cricketing carnival. The cricketer, who compiled a match-winning half-century against Pakistan, said:

“We are off to Pune. Come follow us!”

Team India launched their World Cup 2023 proceedings in Chennai with a match against Australia. They subsequently travelled to Delhi and Ahmedabad to face Afghanistan and Pakistan respectively in the city’s two iconic venues.

Having registered three emphatic wins from their three outings so far, Rohit Sharma and co. will now face Bangladesh on October 19 at Pune’s Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium.
