Renowned Indian batsman Virat Kohli has emphasized that the cricket matches between Pakistan and India offer an equal level of excitement and thrill, if not more, compared to football matches.
Addressing the media ahead of the FA Cup Final, Kohli expressed that when the arch-rivals face each other in a cricket match, fans experience a similar level of enthusiasm seen in football games.
“While India versus Pakistan during a World Cup would create even more buzz, the passion and support from fans are incredible to witness,” said Virat Kohli.
The right-handed cricketer, currently in England for the ICC Test Champions final between India and Australia, took the opportunity to visit Wembley Stadium and watch the FA Cup Final. Kohli also conveyed his admiration for the Manchester City team, highlighting his keen interest in following their performances.
Recent reports indicate that the much-anticipated World Cup encounter between the two neighboring nations may take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on 15 October. It is worth noting that the Narendra Modi Stadium holds the distinction of being the largest stadium in the world, accommodating around 132,000 spectators.
This upcoming match will mark the first time since the T20 World Cup 2016 that Pakistan and India will face each other on Indian soil, generating significant anticipation and attracting a massive crowd to the venue.
As Virat Kohli acknowledges the exhilaration surrounding India-Pakistan cricket matches, fans can eagerly anticipate another thrilling contest between the two cricketing powerhouses.
