The 12th match of the ongoing World Cup will pit India and Pakistan against each other. Both teams have started the season strongly, with two wins in as many games, and are optimistic about the big game.

The match will be played in the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, which has a capacity of 1.32 lakh people and is the largest in the world cup.

In terms of ODI head-to-head records, Pakistan is far ahead of India in the format. In the 50-over format, the arch-rivals have faced each other 134 times, with Pakistan winning 73 matches and India winning 56.

Five matches resulted in a tie, the most recent being the Asia Cup group stage meeting in September 2023.

It's interesting to note that, in seven encounters since 1992, India has never lost to Pakistan in the ODI World Cup. Similar circumstances prevailed throughout the T20 World Cup until Pakistan gave it their all to defeat India by ten wickets in the inaugural tournament in 2021.

Moreover, India and Pakistan will be facing each other in Ahmedabad for the first time since 2005. They locked horns once at the venue back in 2005. Pakistan had won that encounter chasing down 316 runs in the last-ball thriller with Inzamam-ul-Haq winning the player of the match award. Sachin Tendulkar scored a stunning 123 for India with 12 fours ands two sixes to his name.
