The cricketing world saw yet another intense clash between arch-rivals India and Pakistan going underway during the ODI World Cup 2023. This epic encounter commenced at the iconic Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad. While the excitement for an India-Pakistan match is nothing new, this time around, it reached unprecedented heights.
With the World Cup returning to India after a decade and India squaring off against Pakistan for the first time since 2016 on home soil, the tickets for the event were as scarce as gold, and only a fortunate few were able to secure their seats in the stadium. The buildup to the match was electric, and fans from both nations eagerly awaited to see their teams battle it out on the field.
As expected, the match day saw a sea of blue covering the stadium in Ahmedabad to support their home team. However, there was also one Pakistan fan known as Chicago Chacha, who regrettably faced an unexpected challenge to enter the ground ahead of the play.
A Sea of Blue in Ahmedabad
Known for its capacity to hold over a hundred thousand spectators, the Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium was filled to the brim with fans draped in the vibrant blue of the Indian cricket team. The fervour among the fans was palpable as cricket enthusiasts from all over the country had gathered to witness this epic showdown, and the atmosphere was electric.

The lone Pakistan fan
Among the sea of Indian supporters, there was one lone figure – Chicago Chacha, a passionate Pakistan fan who had travelled all the way to Ahmedabad to support his team. Known for his unwavering devotion to Pakistan cricket, Chicago Chacha was a solitary representative of the green and white in the stadium.
Security concerns force Chicago Chacha into a Police van
Despite Chicago Chacha’s unwavering spirit, the overwhelming presence of Indian supporters created a challenging situation for him. Security concerns were paramount, considering the historical tension and the intense rivalry between the two nations. As a result, he found himself sitting in a police van rather than inside the stadium.
