Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], November 15 : Actor Rajinikanth left for Mumbai from Chennai airport on Tuesday to watch the ICC Cricket World Cup semi-final scheduled to be played at Wankhede Stadium.
"I am going to see the match," Rajinikanth told reporters in a brief reply at the airport.
India will take on New Zealand in the first semifinal of the ICC Cricket World Cup at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai on Wednesday. While the Kiwis will be aiming to reach their third successive World Cup final after 2015 and 2019, India will be looking forward to overcoming the knockout hurdle that has not let them win a major ICC title since 2013 and that too against a team that has given them the most trouble in must-win matches.
