The 2023 World Cup, inaugurated on October 5 in Ahmedabad, unfolded as a captivating spectacle, characterised by remarkable matches and a couple of stunning upsets. Notably, the event has attained unprecedented viewership and notable attendances, transcending expectations, even during non-Indian team encounters.

The match that garnered the most attention was none other than India’s standoff with arch-rivals Pakistan at a packed 132,000-seater Narendra Modi Stadium on October 14. While the proceedings turned out to be a one-sided affair in hosts’ affair, scores of cricket fans from all over the world tuned into their devices to catch the enthralling action.


World Cup 2023 fever takes over Emirates

In a recent video circulating on social media, a passenger aboard an Emirates Airlines flight shared footage of himself and fellow travellers immersed in the live broadcast of the blockbuster India versus Pakistan event. This captivating experience unfolded while they were airborne, underscoring how the fever of World Cup 2023 has even permeated the confines of the airlines.

A social media user recently shared a short footage of his flight via Emirates Airlines, where the person along with his co-passengers can be enjoying India vs Pakistan live proceedings within the confinement of their flight.


The passengers on the flight, particularly those who were supporting Pakistan, might not have had a pleasant journey, given that India emerged victorious on the day with a resounding margin.

Hosts’ speedster Jasprit Bumrah had scythed through Pakistan’s middle-order earlier in the game, before captain Rohit Sharma and Shreyas Iyer blasted scintillating half-centuries to take India past the finishing line with nearly 19 overs to spare.
