WATCH: ODI World Cup 2023 organizers light up India Gate ahead of Diwali festivals

The league stage of the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023 is about to come to an end. Only three games are left in the round-robin stage. This includes the ongoing 43rd game between Australia and Bangladesh. Meanwhile, ahead of the semifinals, which will be played in Mumbai and Kolkata, the tournament organizers came up with a light show for the fans in Mumbai.

Notably, the city will host the first semifinal of the tournament between India and New Zealand. Even though Pakistan is still in contention to play the first semi (barely as they need to beat England either by 287 runs or chase a target in 16 balls), the India vs New Zealand semifinal on November 15 is likely. Meanwhile, in the video, the organizers showcased the highlight image of the tournament.
