India vs Pakistan LIVE: Cricket score and updates from ODI World Cup
Follow live coverage of India vs Pakistan from the ODI World Cup today.
The ICC Test Championship sees nine teams compete across a two-year cycle of matches before a two-team final decides the winner. The inaugural competition was won by New Zealand after a thrilling victory over India in June 2021.
The 50-over World Cup is far older and has been competed for since back in 1975. Australia are the record winners having run out victorious on five occasions (1987, 1999, 2003, 2007 and 2015). England took the 2019 crown after a dramatic Ben Stokes-inspired super-over win over New Zealand at Lord's.
The shortest form of the game sees teams compete in Twenty20. The newest format has been an instant global hit with a number of hugely-lucrative competitions massively popular all over the world. Australia are reigning world champions having taken victory in the 2021 tournament.

Match summary
Saturday 14 October 2023 15:48 , Lawrence Ostlere
India steamrollered Pakistan by seven wickets in a lopsided blockbuster match at a heaving Narendra Modi Stadium on Saturday to maintain their unblemished 50-overs World Cup record against their arch-rivals.
The western Indian city had been in the grip of cricket fever ahead of the tournament’s most anticipated match, and India got themselves in the driving seat early by bundling out their opponents for 191 inside 43 overs.
With Babar Azam (50) and Mohammad Rizwan (49) in the middle, a total of around 300 looked within Pakistan’s reach, only for them to collapse in a heap, failing to last their full 50 overs.
India’s skipper Rohit Sharma led the chase with a blistering 86, and the two-time champions eventually romped home in 30.3 overs to maintain their unbeaten record against Pakistan in the history of the tournament.
They also joined 2019 runners-up New Zealand as the only two teams to win their first three matches in the tournament so far.
RESULT! India beat Pakistan by seven wickets
Saturday 14 October 2023 15:40 , Lawrence Ostlere
Shreyas Iyer got his half century before Rahul hit the winning runs as India sealed an emphatic win over their neighbours and fiercest rivals, Pakistan. Rohit Sharma was the lead protagonist, scoring a rapid 86 from 63 balls to bring the target of 192 within reach. India join South Africa on three wins from their opening three matches at this Cricket World Cup.

India have slowed the run rate right down and they are not going to rush this. Rahul and Iyer are happy to keep rotating to the strike with singles as they nudge closer towards their target of 192. Only 16 runs needed now.

That's a monster hit! Rauf can just turn and gaze into the night's sky. A crushing blow to Pakistan, whipped with fast hands and it quickly rises as the crowd scamper to gather from the stands.
Shreyas then sprints for a single to retain the strike, perhaps sensing he won’t get many more looks if Sharma continues to strike the ball as he has done.
