Every fans wait for 4 years to witness the cricketing teams from all over the world fight over the single trophy known as the World Cup. In the year 2023 the tournament is set to return to the county where cricket is more than just a game. The world cup for 2023 will be hosted by India. This will be the first time that the country will be hosting the cup solely as in previous campaigns they acted as joint hosts. This tournament will have 10 teams fighting over the trophy.
