00:05 Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad where India will take on Pakistan, Achai Pulse Pakistan in
00:11 the next league match which is going to be held on Saturday, October 14 at this very
00:18 venue. As we can see, a lot of fans are gathering outside the stadium. The teams are yet to
00:26 arrive at the venue for their practice. After the practice is done, one of the members of
00:34 the team will be interacting with the media in the pre-match press conference. And a few
00:42 fans are already here waiting eagerly for the Indian national team to arrive to cheer
00:48 on their favourite teams. So here are the fans. Everybody is quite excited about this

01:50 bearing the heat. They are hoping for a good amount of earning as well because it's going
02:00 to be a packed stadium. This stadium has a capacity of 130,000 spectators. What we understand
02:09 is that it's going to be a full house, which means more than 1 lakh tickets have been sold.
