The stage is set for India to take on Pakistan in their third ODI World Cup 2023 match, and the anticipation surrounding this contest is already sky-high. Pakistan would be determined to make a statement following a crushing loss in the Asia Cup 2023, while India will be eager to face their arch-rivals, Pakistan, once again and maintain their winning streak against them on home soil.

The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted clear skies for the day suggesting a rain-uninterrupted IND vs PAK clas. IMD Gujarat has assured that even in the event of light or moderate rain, it should remain to just some areas and not disrupt the match. However, they have issued a caution to Ahmedabad residents about the deteriorating air quality. The weather department has highlighted that increasing pollution levels could significantly affect individuals in sensitive groups, such as children and the elderly. Considering that the India vs. Pakistan match is sold out, with an expected influx of around 1,30,000 people, it's important to note that poor air quality may pose problems for susceptible groups.

The IMD's forecast indicates that there is no chance of rain on October 14th in Ahmedabad. The city is expected to experience a maximum temperature of 35 degrees Celsius, with a minimum temperature around 21 degrees Celsius. Relative humidity on the day of the India vs Pakistan clash is projected to be at 35%.

In the ODI World Cup history, India and Pakistan have locked horns against each other seven times, with India emerging victorious in each of these seven encounters, maintaining a clean record against their neighbouring rivals. India had a spotless record against Pakistan in both T20 and ODI World Cups before they lost to the Men in Green by 10 wickets in T20 Cricket World Cup 2021. Both India and Pakistan have already played two matches in the tournament and have registered wins in both of them.
