Babar Azam-led Pakistan defeated Netherlands by 81 runs to start their ODI World Cup 2023 campaign with a win.

With this win, Babar Azam became the first Pakistani captain to win a World Cup match in India.

Before yesterday's win over Netherlands, Pakistan had played two ODI World Cup matches in India and failed to win on both occasions.

Pakistan will be keen on continuing their winning streak when they next take on Sri Lanka on October 10.

After facing Sri Lanka, Pakistan will then take on India on October 14 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

Though Pakistan won the match, Babar Azam had a poor outing as he got out after scoring just 5 runs against Netherlands.

Babar Azam will now aim to get some much-needed runs under his belt in Pakistan's next World Cup matches.
