Will Rohit-Gill partnership turn tides in Ahmedabad where victories are hard to come by for India

New Delhi [India], November 19 : Team India has been tipped to lift the World Cup on Sunday by many former cricketers, but there record in Ahmedabad suggests otherwise.
India are unbeaten after playing ten games in the World Cup, and one of their clashes took place at the Narendra Modi Stadium against their arch-rival Pakistan.

Even in the ODI format, India, after playing 19 ODIs at this venue, have won 11 games and lost eight.
Under such circumstances, the opening pair of Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill's opening stand could change the complexion of the match.
