ICC shares Shah Rukh Khan pose with World Cup Trophy

The International Cricket Council (ICC) took to social media to share a picture of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan with the ODI World Cup Trophy.  The caption accompanying the picture read - "King Khan #CWC23 Trophy It's nearly here …". The picture shows SRK adorably staring at the World Cup trophy, just like millions of Indian cricket fans and even players, who have set sights on the game's greatest prize. The fact that the cricketing extravaganza will be staged on the



familiar home surfaces this year will give the Indians hope of bringing home the coveted trophy for the third time, after 1983 and 2011.

The BCCI is all set to host the ICC tournament later this year as it has already kickstarted the trophy tour last month. India will start their campaign against Australia on October 8 and arch-rivals India and Pakistan will square off at the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 on October 15 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
