The '''2023 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup''' is the 13th edition of the [[Cricket World Cup]], a quadrennial [[One Day International]] (ODI) [[cricket]] tournament contested by men's national teams and organised by the [[International Cricket Council]] (ICC). The tournament is being hosted by [[India]], it started on 5 October and is scheduled to conclude on 19 November 2023. [[England cricket team|England]] are the defending champions, having won the [[2019 Cricket World Cup|2019 edition]] by defeating New Zealand in the [[2019 Cricket World Cup final|final]] at [[Lord's]], London.

Ten national teams are participating. All had to qualify for the tournament though the [[2023 Cricket World Cup qualification]] process. India qualified as hosts; Afghanistan, Australia, Bangladesh, England, New Zealand, Pakistan and South Africa qualified via the [[2020–2023 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League|ICC Cricket World Cup Super League]], with the Netherlands and Sri Lanka securing the final two places via the [[2023 Cricket World Cup Qualifier|qualifier tournament]] in Zimbabwe during June and July 2023, with [[West Indies cricket team|West Indies]] missing out on qualification for the first time in their history.<ref name="Witney-6Jul2023" />

It is the first men's Cricket World Cup which India is hosting solely. They co-hosted the [[1987 Cricket World Cup|1987]], [[1996 Cricket World Cup|1996]] and [[2011 Cricket World Cup|2011]] editions with other nations. The tournament is taking place in ten different stadiums, in ten cities across India. The first and second semi-finals will be held at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai and Eden Gardens in Kolkata respectively, while the final will take place at [[Narendra Modi Stadium]], Ahmedabad.

Like the [[2019 Cricket World Cup|previous World Cup]], the tournament will feature 10 teams. The main route for qualification was, however, through the new [[ICC Cricket World Cup Super League]], a [[2020–2023 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League|series of matches played between 2020 and 2023]] rather than the [[ICC men's ODI team rankings|ODI rankings]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Explainer: ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Super League |url=https://www.icc-cricket.com/cricket-world-cup-super-league/about |website=International Cricket Council |access-date=5 July 2023}}</ref> The top eight of the 13 sides in the Super League qualified for the World Cup automatically, although as hosts [[India national cricket team|India]], who finished fourth, were guaranteed a place. In June and July 2023, the bottom five teams from the Super League and the top five ranked [[List of International Cricket Council members#Associate Members|associate sides]] competed in the [[2023 Cricket World Cup Qualifier]] for the remaining two places.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/18611956/radical-schedule-shake-proposed-icc-meeting |title=New cricket calendar aims to give all formats more context |work=ESPN Cricinfo |date=4 February 2017 |access-date=20 October 2017}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/_/id/27384084/how-teams-secure-qualification-rank-no-1-32 |title=The road to World Cup 2023: how teams can secure qualification, from rank No. 1 to 32 |work=ESPN Cricinfo |access-date=14 August 2019}}</ref>

As a result of the qualifying process, the competition is the first not to include former winners [[West Indies cricket team|West Indies]], who failed to progress from the qualifying process after their defeat to [[Scotland national cricket team|Scotland]]. Full members [[Ireland cricket team|Ireland]] and [[Zimbabwe national cricket team|Zimbabwe]] also missed out on qualification, meaning three of the four [[List of International Cricket Council members#Full Members|full members]] who took part in the knock-out qualification stage did not qualify, with only [[Sri Lanka national cricket team|Sri Lanka]] progressing.<ref name="AP-6Jul23">{{cite web |date=2 July 2023 |title=Sri Lanka qualifies for Cricket World Cup; Zimbabwe, Scotland to scrap it out for final place |url=https://apnews.com/article/cricket-world-cup-sri-lanka-e33210704673c6c856a807b9edb8b506 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230706194722/https://apnews.com/article/cricket-world-cup-sri-lanka-e33210704673c6c856a807b9edb8b506 |archive-date=6 July 2023 |website=AP News |location=New York |publisher=[[Associated Press]] |access-date=6 July 2023}}</ref> The final qualification spot fell to an eliminator between associate members, [[Scotland national cricket team|Scotland]] and [[Netherlands national cricket team|Netherlands]].<ref>{{cite web |date=1 July 2023 |title=West Indies Officially Eliminated from 2023 World Cup Race After Thumping Loss to Scotland in Historic Low |url=https://www.wisden.com/series-stories/world-cup-qualifier-2023/west-indies-officially-eliminated-from-2023-world-cup-race-after-thumping-loss-to-scotland-in-historic-low-cwc-qualifier/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230704202304/https://wisden.com/series-stories/world-cup-qualifier-2023/west-indies-officially-eliminated-from-2023-world-cup-race-after-thumping-loss-to-scotland-in-historic-low-cwc-qualifier |archive-date=4 July 2023 |website=[[Wisden Cricketers' Almanack|Wisden]] |location=London |publisher=Bloomsbury |access-date=4 July 2023}}</ref> The Netherlands won the eliminator and took the final spot in the finals stage of the competition.<ref name="Witney-6Jul2023">{{cite web |last=Witney |first=Katya |date=6 July 2023 |title=CWC Qualifier 2023: Netherlands qualify for World Cup at Scotland's expense after stunning Bas de Leede heist |url=https://www.wisden.com/series-stories/world-cup-qualifier-2023/cwc-qualifier-2023-netherlands-qualify-world-cup-bas-de-leede |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230709130252/https://wisden.com/series-stories/world-cup-qualifier-2023/cwc-qualifier-2023-netherlands-qualify-world-cup-bas-de-leede |archive-date=9 July 2023 |website=Wisden |location=London |publisher=Bloomsbury |access-date=9 July 2023}}</ref>

The ICC officially announced the mascots for the World Cup on August 19; following the announcement, there was an event held in [[Gurgaon]] with two U-19 World Cup-winning captains, [[Shafali Verma]] and [[Yash Dhull]]. The mascots are a male and female duo named "Tonk" and "Blaze" respectively from the fictional cricketing utopia called "Crictoverse". They embody the principle of [[gender equality]].<ref>{{Cite news |date=2023-08-19 |title=WATCH: ICC unveils mascots for ICC ODI World Cup 2023, fans to vote on names |work=The Times of India |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/cricket/icc-world-cup/watch-icc-unveils-mascots-for-icc-odi-world-cup-2023-fans-to-vote-on-names/articleshow/102860447.cms?from=mdr |access-date=2023-08-20 |issn=0971-8257}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=30 September 2023 |title=Names of ICC mascots revealed ahead of World Cup |url=https://www.icc-cricket.com/news/3705587 |access-date=30 September 2023 |website=[[International Cricket Council]]}}</ref>

== New rules ==
This is the first ICC World Cup in which penalties for "slow over-rates" will be given to bowling sides, if they did not complete its 50 overs in the stipulated time. On-field umpires can penalise the bowling team by not allowing more than 4 fielders outside the 30 yard circle.<ref>[[Star Sports (Indian TV network)|Star Sports 1 HD]] live commentary of the match Netherlands vs New Zealand on 9 October 2023.</ref>

==Venues==
The tournament is taking place in ten different stadiums, situated in ten different cities across India. The first and second semi-finals will be held at [[Wankhede Stadium]] in [[Mumbai]] and [[Eden Gardens]] in [[Kolkata]] respectively, while the final will take place at [[Narendra Modi Stadium]] in [[Ahmedabad]].<ref name="Fixtures" />

The BCCI has provided funding for renovations and refurbishments at stadiums. [[Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium]] received a new grass surface, drainage system, seating, and hospitality boxes. Wankhede Stadium had upgrades to the outfield, floodlights, corporate boxes, and toilets. [[M. A. Chidambaram Stadium]] installed new floodlights and relaid two wickets.<ref>{{Cite web |date=30 June 2023 |title=Cricket World Cup venues to get an upgrade: Imported grass, new outfields, better floodlights |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/sports/cricket/cricket-world-cup-venues-to-get-an-upgrade-imported-grass-new-outfields-better-floodlights-8693468/ |access-date=30 June 2023 |website=[[The Indian Express]]}}</ref>

With the Autumn scheduling of this World Cup, the ICC instituted protocols for reducing the impact of moisture—including [[dew]] and rain—on pitch conditions, so that they do not give the team batting second an advantage (as had frequently occurred in the [[2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup|2021 Men's T20 World Cup]]). These include using a specific wetting agent, and the boundary set at around {{Convert|70|m|yds|abbr=in}} at each stadium, with more grass on the pitch to encourage [[seam bowling]] over [[spin bowling]].<ref>{{Cite news |date=2023-09-20 |title=ODI World Cup: More grass, bigger boundaries to tackle dew factor |work=The Times of India |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/cricket/icc-world-cup/odi-world-cup-more-grass-bigger-boundaries-to-tackle-dew-factor/articleshow/103795737.cms?from=mdr |access-date=2023-10-05 |issn=0971-8257}}</ref>

The [[Cricket World Cup]] is a [[One Day International]] (ODI) competition in men's [[cricket]]. Organised by the [[International Cricket Council]] (ICC), the tournament has taken place every four years since it was first held in England. The number of teams and number of matches have increased since then, although the ICC declared an interest in reducing the format,<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.ecb.co.uk/news/england/eng-world-cup,308088,EN.html| title = England learn World Cup fate| date = 7 October 2009| publisher = England and Wales Cricket Board| access-date = 27 October 2009| url-status = dead| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20100113012633/http://ecb.co.uk/news/england/eng-world-cup,308088,EN.html| archive-date = 13 January 2010| df = dmy-all}}</ref> following criticism of the [[2007 Cricket World Cup|2007 World Cup]].<ref>{{cite news | url = http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/cricket/8306930.stm | title = Mumbai lands 2011 World Cup final | publisher = BBC Sport | access-date = 27 October 2009 | date = 14 October 2009 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20091017051532/http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/cricket/8306930.stm | archive-date = 17 October 2009 | url-status = live }}</ref>

[[India national cricket team|India]] [[Batting (cricket)|batsman]] [[Sachin Tendulkar]] holds an array of individual records in the World Cup. One of the [[Wisden Cricketers of the Year]] in 1997,<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/player/35320.html |title=Sachin Tendulkar |publisher=ESPN Cricinfo |access-date=23 September 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111231090501/http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/player/35320.html |archive-date=31 December 2011 |url-status=live }}</ref> Tendulkar has made more scores over fifty and scored more runs than any other cricketer in World Cup history. [[Australia national cricket team|Australia's]] [[Glenn McGrath]] dominates the individual [[Bowling (cricket)|bowling]] records, having featured for his country in four World Cups.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://stats.cricinfo.com/ci/engine/player/6565.html?class=2;filter=advanced;orderby=start;template=results;trophy=12;type=allround;view=match | title = Statistics – Statsguru – GD McGrath – One-Day Internationals (World Cup) | publisher = Cricinfo | access-date = 27 October 2009}}</ref> He has one of the best strike rate and economy rate among any other bowler, having the best individual bowling figures and taken more wickets in the history of the tournament.

Australian [[Ricky Ponting]] and Sri Lankan [[Kumar Sangakkara]] lead the individual fielding records. Ponting is the leading [[Fielding (cricket)|fielder]] in terms of catches taken, in both a single Cricket World Cup tournament and in the competition's history, while Sangakkara has the most dismissals by a [[wicketkeeper]] in Cricket World Cup history. [[Adam Gilchrist]] holds joint records for the most [[Dismissal (cricket)|dismissals]] by a wicketkeeper in both a single match (along with [[Sarfraz Ahmed]]) and in one tournament (along with [[Tom Latham (cricketer)|Tom Latham]]). Australia hold several team records, including those for the most wins, the highest win percentage, the most consecutive wins; they were undefeated in the [[2003 Cricket World Cup|2003]] and [[2007 Cricket World Cup|2007]] campaigns.

Records are also kept of underwhelming performances. These include [[Canada national cricket team|Canada's]] lowest score in the history of the tournament, [[Zimbabwe national cricket team|Zimbabwe's]] record number of matches lost and Canadian [[Nicholas De Groot]]'s three consecutive [[Duck (cricket)|ducks]].

'''Ravichandran Ashwin''' ({{audio|Ravichandran Ashwin.ogg|pronunciation}}) (born 17 September 1986) is an Indian international [[cricket]]er from [[Chennai]], who plays for the [[India national cricket team|India cricket team]]. In Indian domestic cricket he plays for [[Tamil Nadu cricket team|Tamil Nadu]] and for [[Rajasthan Royals]] in the [[Indian Premier League]] (IPL).<ref name=":0" /> He was part of the Indian team that won the [[2011 Cricket World Cup]] and the [[2013 ICC Champions Trophy|2013 Champions Trophy]].

Ashwin is right-arm off-spin bowler. He is fastest Indian bowler (also in some records the joint-fastest in the world) to reach the 50-, 100-, 150-, 200-, 250-, 300-, 350-,400- and 450- wicket mark in [[Test cricket]] in terms of number of innings.<ref name=":0">{{cite web|title=Records / Test matches / Bowling records / Fastest to 50. wickets|url=http://stats.espncricinfo.com/india/content/records/283528.html|publisher=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=2 July 2015}}</ref><ref name="200 wickets">{{cite web |date=25 September 2016|title=Ashwin leaves New Zealand facing uphill task |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/nz-tour-of-india-2016-17-1030193/india-vs-new-zealand-1st-test-1030213/match-report-4 |access-date=25 September 2016 |publisher=ESPNcricinfo}}</ref> In 2016, he became the third Indian to win the [[ICC Awards#2016 awards|ICC Cricketer of the Year]] award. He is currently the highest-ranked bowler in Test cricket, and the highest-ranked bowler ever for India on the [[ICC Player Rankings]]. He has won ten Man of the Series awards in Test cricket, which is the highest by an Indian cricketer. He has also scored 5 Test centuries with a highest score of 124. Ashwin with his team won both the [[2011 Cricket World Cup]], and the [[2013 ICC Champions Trophy]], where he was the bowler of the final over in which England failed to chase the target.

Having achieved little success as an [[opening batsman]] at junior-level cricket, Ashwin dropped down the order and turned into an off-break bowler. He made his first-class debut for Tamil Nadu in December 2006 and captained the team the following season. However, it was not until the [[2010 Indian Premier League]] in which he played for the [[Chennai Super Kings]] that he came into the limelight with his economical bowling and earned his maiden international call-up in the limited-overs formats in June 2010. He was the leading wicket-taker and player of the tournament of the [[2010 Champions League Twenty20]] in South Africa.

He was also part of the Indian squad that won the [[2011 Cricket World Cup]]. Later that year, he made his Test debut against West Indies and became the seventh Indian bowler to [[List of India cricketers who have taken five-wicket hauls on Test debut|take a five-wicket haul]] on Test debut. He took two five-wicket hauls and scored a century in that series and won the player of the series award.

Ashwin continued to succeed in the subcontinent. In a home Test series against Australia in 2013, he took 29 wickets, the most by any Indian bowler in a four-match Test series. The same year, he took his 100th Test wicket in his 18th match, becoming the fastest Indian bowler to the milestone and the fastest in the world in over 80 years. In 2017, playing his 45th Test, Ashwin became the fastest bowler to pick up 250 Test wickets, bettering [[Dennis Lillee]], who had achieved the landmark in 48 Tests.<ref>{{cite news|title=India v Bangladesh: R Ashwin becomes fastest to 250 Test wickets|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/cricket/bangladesh-in-india/india-v-bangladesh-r-ashwin-becomes-fastest-to-250-test-wickets/articleshow/57107038.cms|website=The Times of India|date=12 February 2017 |access-date=12 February 2017}}</ref> In October 2019, in his 66th Test match, Ashwin became the joint-fastest bowler, along with [[Muttiah Muralitharan]], to take his 350th Test wicket.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.indiatoday.in/sports/cricket/story/india-vs-south-africa-r-ashwin-muttiah-muralitharan-world-record-fastest-350-wickets-1606530-2019-10-06 |title=India vs South Africa: R Ashwin equals Muttiah Muralitharan's record for fastest to 350 Test wickets |work=India Today |access-date=6 October 2019}}</ref>

On 10 April 2022, he became the first batsman to officially retire out in an IPL match during a league stage match between [[Rajasthan Royals]] and [[Lucknow Super Giants]].<ref>{{cite web |title=R Ashwin becomes first batter to be tactically retired out in the IPL |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/ipl-2022-lsg-vs-rr-r-ashwin-becomes-first-batter-to-be-tactically-retired-out-in-the-ipl-1310312 |access-date=10 April 2022 |work=ESPN Cricinfo|date=10 April 2022 }}</ref> He is one of the few players to reach 3000+ runs & 450+ wickets in tests and overall 2nd quickest player to reach this landmark.

==Early years==
Ashwin was born on 17 September 1986 in Chennai, [[Tamil Nadu]]. He lives in West [[Mambalam]], [[Chennai]].<ref name="midday">{{cite web|last=Mohan |first=Sai |url=http://www.mid-day.com/sports/2011/apr/280411-R-Ashwin-Parents-Chennai.htm |title=(28 April 2011) – Interview with R.Ashwin's parents |publisher=Mid-Day |date=28 April 2011 |access-date=30 March 2013}}</ref> His father Ravichandran played cricket at club level as a fast bowler.<ref name="forbesin">{{cite web|title=R Ashwin and the spin evolution|url=http://forbesindia.com/printcontent/41731|work=Forbes India|access-date=14 February 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.indianexpress.com/news/ashwins-offbeat-story-failed-opening-bats/606474/ |title=Ashwin's off-beat story: Failed opening batsman to India's spin hope |work=The Indian Express |date=15 April 2010 |access-date=14 December 2012}}</ref> Ashwin was educated at [[Padma Seshadri Bala Bhavan]] and [[St. Bede's Anglo Indian Higher Secondary School]]. He also attended SSN college of engineering, Chennai and graduated with a [[B.Tech#India|BTech]] in [[Information Technology]]. His time at St. Bede's was particularly important, as it had a cricket academy. Ashwin has stated that coaches C. K. Vijay and Chandra at St Bede's played a big role in his career, where he had changed his bowling style from medium pace to off spin.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/cricket/right-turn/story-43XyFVMW42XKDRf0uKgaVP.html | title=Right turn | publisher=[[Hindustan Times]] | work=Atreyo Mukhopadhyay | date=15 February 2011 | access-date=22 June 2018}}</ref><ref>{{cite news | url=http://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/chennai/how-the-four-ts-built-cricketing-careers/article19883002.ece | title=How the four Ts built cricketing careers | publisher=The Hindu | work=T S Manohar | date=19 October 2017 | access-date=22 June 2018| last1=Manohar | first1=T. s. }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/cricket/sri-lanka-in-india/for-ashwin-its-all-in-the-mind/articleshow/61829398.cms | title=For Ashwin, it's all in the mind | publisher=[[The Times of India]] | work=Bagawati Prasad | date=28 November 2017 | access-date=22 June 2018}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.mylaporetimes.com/2011/01/st-bedes-felicitates-cricketer-r-ashwin/ | title=St.Bede's felicitates cricketer and alumni, R.

==Career==

===2010–present: International career===
On the back of his impressive performance in the [[2010 Indian Premier League]], Ashwin was selected in a second-string squad that toured Zimbabwe in May–June 2010. He made his ODI debut against Sri Lanka on 5 June 2010, scoring a 32–ball 38 and taking 2/50 in that match which India lost to crash out of the [[Tri-nation series in Zimbabwe in 2010|tri-series]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Zimbabwe Triangular Series, 5th Match: India v Sri Lanka at Harare, Jun 5, 2010|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/current/match/452150.html|publisher=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=3 July 2015}}</ref> His T20I debut came a week later, against Zimbabwe at Harare where he took 1/22 in four overs in an Indian win. Ashwin was selected for the [[Sri Lanka Triangular Series in 2010|tri-series]] against New Zealand and hosts Sri Lanka, but did not get a game with [[Pragyan Ojha]] and [[Ravindra Jadeja]] being preferred over him throughout the series.<ref>{{cite web|title=Sri Lanka Triangular Series, 2010 / India Squad / Players|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/squad/470370.html|publisher=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=3 July 2015}}</ref>

In October, the selectors decided to rest first-choice players in the three-match [[Australian cricket team in India in 2010–11|home ODI series]] against Australia, enabling Ashwin to get selected in the team again. Ashwin was the most economical bowler in the only match played in the series in which he took 1/34 in nine overs while India registered a five-wicket victory.<ref>{{cite web|title=Australia tour of India [Sep–Oct 2010], 2nd ODI: India v Australia at Visakhapatnam, Oct 20, 2010|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/464529.html|publisher=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=3 July 2015}}</ref>

Ashwin played in all five matches of the [[New Zealand cricket team in India in 2010–11|home series]] against New Zealand in November–December 2010. India completed a 5–0 [[Whitewash (sport)|whitewash]] and Ashwin ended up as the leading wicket-taker of the series with 11 wickets at an average of 21.90.<ref>{{cite web|title=Records / New Zealand in India ODI Series, 2010/11 / Most wickets|url=http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/records/bowling/most_wickets_career.html?id=5997;type=series|publisher=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=3 July 2015}}</ref> At the conclusion of the series, Ashwin earned the praise of captain [[Gautam Gambhir]], who called him "the find" of the series and hailed his bowling during the [[powerplay (cricket)|powerplay]] overs.<ref>{{cite web |date=10 December 2010 |title=Gambhir praises Ashwin, team after series sweep |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/india-v-new-zealand-gambhir-praises-ashwin-team-after-series-sweep-491214 |access-date=3 July 2015 |publisher=ESPNcricinfo}}</ref> Despite this success, Ashwin failed to make it to the playing eleven in any of the five ODIs on the [[Indian cricket team in South Africa in 2010–11|South African tour]], with the inclusion of lead spinner [[Harbhajan Singh]] in the team.<ref>{{cite web|title=India in South Africa ODI Series, 2010/11 / India One-Day Squad / Players|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/squad/493661.html|publisher=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=3 July 2015}}</ref> However, Ashwin did manage to find a place in the 15-member [[2011 Cricket World Cup|World Cup]] squad that was announced during the series, with Harbhajan and [[Piyush Chawla]] being the other two specialist spinners in the squad.<ref>{{cite web |title=No Rohit Sharma in World Cup squad |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/icc-world-cup-2011-no-rohit-sharma-in-world-cup-squad-497102 |access-date=3 July 2015 |publisher=ESPNcricinfo}}</ref>

Ashwin played the fourth and fifth ODI of India's [[Indian cricket team in the West Indies in 2011|tour of West Indies]] in June–July 2011 but picked just one wicket. Ashwin was retained in the limited-overs squad for the [[Indian cricket team in England in 2011|England tour]]. He emerged as India's best bowler of the series, which India lost 3–0, taking six wickets at an average of 25.16.<ref>{{cite web|title=Records / NatWest Series [India in England], 2011 / Most wickets|url=http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/records/bowling/most_wickets_career.html?id=6114;type=series|publisher=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=11 July 2015}}</ref> England toured India in October 2011 and were whitewashed in the ODI series 5–0. With 10 scalps at 20.20, Ashwin was as the second highest wicket-taker of the series, only behind teammate Jadeja.<ref>{{cite web|title=Records / England in India ODI Series, 2011/12 / Most wickets|url=http://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/records/bowling/most_wickets_career.html?id=6683;type=series|publisher=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=11 July 2015}}</ref>

In November 2011, West Indies [[West Indian cricket team in India in 2011–12|toured India]] for three Tests and five ODIs. Ashwin and Ojha were the only two specialist spinners in the squad, with Harbhajan being omitted owing to his indifferent form during the England tour.<ref>{{cite web|title=Dhoni non-committal about Ashwin's in Test squad|url=http://sports.ndtv.com/eng-ind-2011/news/180160-dhoni-non-committal-about-ashwin-in-test-squad|publisher=NDTV|access-date=14 July 2015}}</ref> Ashwin made his Test debut in the first match at Delhi, earning his cap from [[Sachin Tendulkar]].

==Bowling style==
Ashwin produces several variations of the ball and flights the ball, thereby giving it more chance to spin and dip on the batsman. In addition to his normal [[off spin|off-breaks]], he produces an [[arm ball]] and the [[carrom ball]], the latter of which he uses frequently in the shorter formats. In [[IPL 2013]], he bowled [[leg break|leg-breaks]] and [[googly]] as well.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/r-ashwin-the-legspinner-and-steyn-s-spot-632207|title=Chennai Super Kings v Sunrisers Hyderabad, IPL 2013, Chennai: R Ashwin the legspinner, and Steyn's spo|publisher=ESPN Cric Info|access-date=23 December 2013}}</ref> However, in an interview, he has stated that he refrains from bowling the [[doosra]] as it requires him to bend and straighten his arm which he finds difficult to do.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PupGJ_eIcYA|title=Ravichandran Ashwin On Innovation|website=YouTube|date=20 February 2012|access-date=23 December 2013}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.indiatoday.in/sports/cricket/story/india-vs-south-africa-1st-test-day-3-ravichandran-ashwin-5-wickets-record-muttiah-muralitharan-1606365-2019-10-04|title=R Ashwin second only to Muttiah Muralitharan on exclusive list after 21st 5-wicket haul at home|newspaper=India Today|language=en|access-date=2019-10-05|agency=Ist}}</ref>

Ashwin's childhood coach [[Sunil Subramaniam]] recalls Ashwin's early days at the TNCA Academy:

<blockquote>[...] what struck me was his intelligence. His use of angles, length and width of the crease. Also, guessing what a batsman was likely to do. And the kind of field placing that he is comfortable with. Those are the factors that struck me immediately – that this guy not only loves bowling, he also has a fair idea of what spin actually is. For somebody who started out at 18 or 19, I thought that was a big thing [...] Here is a guy who knew what the ball is supposed to do, where this guy is expected to play and what are the plans to keep that guy in check and put pressure on that guy. He was pretty clear at 18 itself.<ref>{{cite web|title=Transcript: Couch Talk with Sunil Subramaniam|url=http://thecricketcouch.com/couch-talk/transcript-couch-talk-with-sunil-subramaniam/|publisher=The Cricket Couch|access-date=26 November 2015}}</ref></blockquote>

==History==

=== Early 20th Century ===
Brazilian Sikhs have a unique history and culture, and their story begins with the arrival of the first Sikh immigrants in the early 20th century. These immigrants came to Brazil seeking better economic opportunities, and they settled primarily in the southern part of the country, in the Brazilian state of [[Paraná (state)|Paraná]]. However, most Sikhs went to [[Brazil]] to reach [[Argentina]].<ref>{{Cite news |title=Naipaul And The Sikhs Of Argentina |work=Outlook India |url=https://www.outlookindia.com/website/story/naipaul-and-the-sikhs-of-argentina/294936 |quote=When groups of Sikhs did reach the shores of South America it was not always at Buenos Aires. Some had to travel further, overland through Chile or Brazil.}}</ref>

Sikhs in Latin America, including Brazil, have been the subject of academic research as well. In his book "Sikhs in Latin America: Travels Among the Sikh Diaspora," Swaran Singh provides a comprehensive overview of the history and culture of Sikhs in the region. Singh's research highlights the challenges that Sikhs in [[Latin America]] face in preserving their religious and cultural traditions while also integrating into their host societies.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Kahlon |first=Swaran |title=Sikhs in Latin America: Travels Among the Sikh Diaspora |publisher=Manohar Publishers |year=2012 |isbn=9788173049385 |language=English}}</ref>

=== 21st Century ===
Sikhism is known for its commitment to equality and social justice, and the Sikh community in Brazil has worked to promote these values within their own community and in the wider Brazilian society. In 2018, a delegation of Brazilian Sikhs visited the [[Golden Temple]] in [[Amritsar|Amritsar, India]], to plead for gender equality within the Sikh community. The delegation included both men and women, and they called for the removal of restrictions on women's participation in some Sikh religious ceremonies.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Paul |first=GS |date=4 February 2018 |title=Brazilian Sikhs visit Golden Temple, plead for gender equality |work=The Tribune |url=https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/archive/amritsar/brazilian-sikhs-visit-golden-temple-plead-for-gender-equality-538527}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |last=Rana |first=Yudhvir |date=3 February 2018 |title=Brazil's Sikh Dharma International delegation visits Golden Temple |work=Times of India |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/amritsar/brazils-sikh-dharma-international-delegation-visits-golden-temple/articleshow/62769868.cms}}</ref>

== Demographics ==
Most Sikhs in Brazil belong to the [[3HO]] community or Punjabi migrants, who have come for business opportunities. The descendants of earlier immigrant generation have largely married outside of the culture and religion due to the lack of a large Sikh population. <ref name=":0" />

==Gurdwara==
The Sikh community in Brazil has established several gurdwaras, or places of worship, throughout the country. One of the most well-known gurdwaras is the Shri Arjun Dev Sahib Gurdwara in the city of [[Curitiba]], which was inaugurated in 1980. This gurdwara is the first and largest Sikh temple in Brazil and has become a symbol of the Sikh community's presence in the country.<ref>{{Cite journal |title=The Sikh Global Village - Brazil |url=https://www.sikhglobalvillage.com/downloads/pdf/The%20Sikh%20Global%20Village%20Brazil.pdf |journal=The Sikh Global Village - Brazil}}</ref>

Shridhant Joshi: 1911 import, Indian intriguer

'''Omichund''', '''Omichand''', or '''Umichand''' ({{lang-bn|উমিচাঁদ}}; died 1767) was a native merchant of [[Nawabs of Bengal|Bengal Nawabi period]] in [[Company rule in India|India]] who was one of the principal authors of the conspiracy against Nawab and associated with the treaty negotiated by [[Robert Clive]] before the [[Battle of Plassey]] in 1757.
==Biography==
Omichund had long been resident at [[Calcutta]] (Kolkata), where he had acquired a large fortune by providing the investment for the [[British East India Company]], and also by acting as intermediary between the English and the local court at [[Murshidabad]]. In a letter of [[William Watts (East India Company official)|William Watts]] of later date, he is represented as saying to the [[Nawab]] ([[Siraj Ud Daulah|Siraj ud-Daulah]]):
: “He had lived under the English protection these forty years; that he never knew them once to break their agreement, to the truth of which he took his oath, by touching a [[Brahman]]'s foot; and that if a lie could be proved in England upon any one, they were spit upon and never trusted.”<ref name=eb11 />

Several houses owned by him in Calcutta are mentioned in connection with the fighting that preceded the [[Black Hole of Calcutta|tragedy of the Black Hole]] in 1756, and it is on record that he suffered heavy financial losses at that time. He had been arrested by the English on suspicion of [[treachery (law)|treachery]], but afterwards he was forward in giving help to the fugitives and also valuable advice.<ref name=eb11 />

On the recapture of Calcutta, he was sent by [[Robert Clive]] to accompany Watts as agent at Murshidabad. It seems to have been through his influence that the nawab gave reluctant consent to Clive's attack on [[Chandernagore]]. Later, when the treaty with [[Mir Jafar]] was being negotiated circa 1757, he put in a claim for 5% on all the treasure to be recovered, under threat of disclosing the plot. To defeat him, two copies of the treaty were drawn up: the one, the true treaty, omitting his claim; the other containing it, to be shown to him, which [[Charles Watson (Royal Navy officer)|Admiral Charles Watson]] refused to sign, but Clive directed the admiral's signature to be appended. When the truth was revealed to Omichund after Plassey, [[Thomas Babington Macaulay|Macaulay]] states (following [[Robert Orme]]) that he sank gradually into idiocy, languished a few months, and then purportedly died. However, as a matter of fact, he survived for ten years, until 1767; and by his will he bequeathed £2000 to the Foundling Hospital (where his name may be seen in the list of benefactors as “a black merchant of Calcutta”) and also to the Magdalen Hospital in London.<ref name=eb11>{{EB1911|wstitle=Omichund}}</ref>

Lord Clive testified and defended himself thus before the House of Commons of Parliament on 10 May 1773, during the Parliamentary inquiry into his conduct in India:<ref>
''The Parliamentary history of England from the''
'' earliest period to the year 1803'',
Great Britain Parliament, 1812, web:
[https://archive.org/details/parliamentaryhi04parlgoog PG].
</ref>

{{quote |Omichund, his confidential servant, as ''he'' thought, told his master of an agreement made between the English and Monsieur Duprée [a general of the French East India Company] to attack him, and received for that advice a sum of not less than four lacks of rupees. Finding this to be the man in whom the [[nabob]] [nawab] entirely trusted, it soon became our object to consider him as a most material engine in the intended revolution. We therefore made such an agreement as was necessary for the purpose, and entered into a treaty with him to satisfy his demands. When all things were prepared, and the evening of the event was appointed, Omichund informed Mr. Watts, who was at the court of the nabob, that he insisted upon thirty lacks of rupees, and five per cent. upon all the treasure that should be found; that, unless that was immediately complied with, he would disclose the whole to the nabob; and that Mr. Watts, and the two other English gentlemen then at the court, should be cut off before the morning. Mr. Watts, immediately on this information, dispatched an express to me at the council. I did not hesitate to find out a stratagem to save the lives of these people, and secure success to the intended event. For this purpose we signed another treaty. The one was called the ''Red'', the other the ''White'' treaty. This treaty was signed by every one, except admiral Watson; and I should have considered myself sufficiently authorised to put his name to it, by the conversation I had with him. As to the person who signed admiral Watson's name to the treaty, whether he did it in his presence or not, I cannot say; but this I know, that he thought he had sufficient authority for so doing. This treaty was immediately sent to Omichund, who did not suspect the stratagem. The event took place, and success attended it; and the House, I am fully persuaded, will agree with me, that, when the very existence of the Company was at stake, and the lives of these people so precariously situated, and so certain of being destroyed, it was a matter of true policy and of justice to deceive so great a {{nowrap|villain." –Great Britain Parliament, 1812}}<ref>{{cite book |title= The Parliamentary history of England from the earliest period to the year 1803 | volume = 17|last=Great Britain Parliament |year=1812 |page= 876| url= https://books.google.com/books?id=DLE_AAAAYAAJ&pg=PT457}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |title= The gentleman's magazine, and historical chronicle | volume = 43| pages= 630–31|url= https://books.google.com/books?id=LnpIAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA630}}</ref>}}

'''Anjana''' is a river in [[Nadia district|Nadia]] district of [[West Bengal]]. The 29 km (18 mi) long river drains [[Krishnanagar, Nadia|Krishnanagar]], Jalalkhali and [[Badkulla]] areas, which belong to [[Krishnanagar, Nadia|Krishnanagar city]], and [[Krishnanagar I|Krishnanagar 1]] and [[Hanskhali (community development block)|Hanshkhali]] community development block. The Anjana River originates on the southern bank of the [[Jalangi River]] at the northern end of Krishnanagar city, the river generally flows south through the Jalalkhali area before reaching [[Badkulla]]. Passing the town of Badkulla, the river flows southeast and joins the [[Churni River|Churni river]]. A tributary originates from this river at Hat Boalia, which joins the Churni river at [[Hanshkhali]].

The course of the river has become a canal within the city of Krishnanagar, thus drying up most of the course.<ref name="anandabazar1">{{cite web |author1=Monirul Sheikh |title=পরিচয় হারিয়ে পুরসভার নোটিসেও অঞ্জনা এখন খাল |url=https://www.anandabazar.com/west-bengal/nadia-murshidabad/%E0%A6%AA%E0%A6%B0-%E0%A6%9A%E0%A7%9F-%E0%A6%B9-%E0%A6%B0-%E0%A7%9F-%E0%A6%AA-%E0%A6%B0%E0%A6%B8%E0%A6%AD-%E0%A6%B0-%E0%A6%A8-%E0%A6%9F-%E0%A6%B8-%E0%A6%93-%E0%A6%85%E0%A6%9E-%E0%A6%9C%E0%A6%A8-%E0%A6%8F%E0%A6%96%E0%A6%A8-%E0%A6%96-%E0%A6%B2-1.35801 |website=Anandabazar |publisher=Anandabazar Patrika |access-date=19 July 2023 |language=bn }}</ref> The river has very little flow in seasons other than monsoon.<ref name="anandabazar2">{{cite web |author1=Monirul Sheikh |title=রুদ্ধনদীর গতি চাইছেন নাগরিকেরা |url=https://www.anandabazar.com/west-bengal/nadia-murshidabad/krishnanagar-people-want-anjana-river-back-in-their-life-1.1036453 |website=Anandabazar |publisher=[[Anandabazar Patrika]] |access-date=19 July 2023 |language=bn }}</ref><ref name="telegraphindia1">{{cite web |author1=Prasun Chaudhuri |title=On the trail of the vanishing waterways of Bengal |url=https://www.telegraphindia.com/west-bengal/on-the-trail-of-the-vanishing-waterways-of-bengal/cid/1692964 |website=www.telegraphindia.com |publisher=[[The Telegraph (India)|The Telegraph India]] |access-date=19 July 2023 }}</ref> The river has been gradually [[Silted up|silted]] up under the pressure of unplanned and illegal [[urbanization]] for a long time in [[Krishnanagar, Nadia|Krishnanagar]].<ref name="dw1">{{cite web |title=নদী চুরি আর কী এমন আশ্চর্য ঘটনা! |url=https://www.dw.com/bn/%E0%A6%A8%E0%A6%A6%E0%A7%80-%E0%A6%9A%E0%A7%81%E0%A6%B0%E0%A6%BF-%E0%A6%86%E0%A6%B0-%E0%A6%95%E0%A7%80-%E0%A6%8F%E0%A6%AE%E0%A6%A8-%E0%A6%86%E0%A6%B6%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%9A%E0%A6%B0%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%AF-%E0%A6%98%E0%A6%9F%E0%A6%A8%E0%A6%BE/a-65802283 |website=www.dw.com |publisher=DW |access-date=19 July 2023 |language=bn}}</ref><ref name="anandabazar4">{{cite web |author1=Niranjan Pal |title=জবরদখলের জেরে সঙ্কটে অঞ্জনা ‘খাল’, জলঙ্গি নদী |url=https://www.anandabazar.com/west-bengal/nadia-murshidabad/jalangi-river-and-anjana-canal-blocked-due-to-forcible-occupation-1.160686 |website=Anandabazar |publisher=[[Anandabazar Patrika]] |access-date=20 July 2023 |location=[[Krishnanagar, Nadia|Krishnanagar]] |language=bn }}</ref>

==Course==
The [[Hooghly River|Bhagirathi River]] channel near [[Nabadwip]] is less deep than the Jalangi river channel, so the water level of Jalangi is lower than the Bhagirthi river level near the estuary of Jalangi in Nabadwip. As a result, the Jalangi water does not flow into the Bhagirathi, and returns to the riverbed. This excess water begins to flow anew into the low-lying areas along the river, forming the Anjana as a tributary of the Jalangir.<ref name="anandabazar3">{{cite web |author1=Ashok Sengupta |title=স্রোত হারিয়েছে আগেই, এখন সঙ্কট অস্তিত্বের |url=https://www.anandabazar.com/west-bengal/anjana-river-will-vanish-in-coming-future-1.147150 |website=Anandabazar |publisher=Anandabazar Patrika |access-date=19 July 2023 |language=bn }}</ref>

The Anjana River originates from the [[Jalangi River|Jalangi river]] at Ruipukur Mauza near Krishnanagar. The river reaches Dogachi after crossing 7 km in Krishnanagar town. Krishnanagar city's Cathedral Church, Shaktinagar Hospital and Raja Krishnachandra's Rajbari are located on the banks of the river. The Anjana River covers a course of 11 kilometers (6.8 mi) from its source to Hat Boalia. The river divides into two tributaries near Hat Boalia. The main stream flows southward, crosses Jalalkhali and Jalkar Patuli, and reaches [[Badkulla]] town. Flowing at the western end of Badkulla town, it turns eastwards and enters Badkulla town. The river flows southeast from Badkulla town. It crosses the Chandanpukur and joins the [[Churni River|Churni river]] near Byaspur Mauza.

The another part is basically known as ''Hele khal'', which is 13 kilometers (8.1 mi) long. It passes through Hat Boalia to Jatrapur, Jaipur, Gobindpur and Itaberia, and joins the Churni river near [[Hanshkhali|Hanskhali]].<ref name="anandabazar1"/>

==Geography and drainage basin==
The Anjana river basin covers an area of 89.54 km2 (34.57 sq mi), which is a river basin between the [[Jalangi River|Jalangi]] and the [[Churni River]]. The entire basin belongs to [[Nadia district|Nadia]] district. The basin extends to Jalalkhali in the west, Byaspur in the south, [[Hanshkhali]], Gobindpur and Itaberia in the east and Ruipukur in the north. The slope of river basin is observed from northwest to southeast.<ref name="anjana"/>

32.27 percent area of the basin is located at 9–12 meters above sea level. Anjana river flows at an altitude of more than 16 meters above sea level in [[Krishnanagar, Nadia|Krishnanagar]] city and [[Badkulla]] area, which is the highest basin area of the river basin. The lowest area of the basin is less than 9 meters above sea level.<ref name="anjana">{{cite book |last1=Das |first1=Balai Chandra |last2=Ghosh |first2=Sandipan |last3=Islam |first3=Aznarul |last4=Roy |first4=Suvendu |title=Anthropogeomorphology of Bhagirathi-Hooghly River System in India |publisher=CRC Press |isbn=978-1-000-19457-9 |pages=27–28 |url=https://www.google.co.in/books/edition/Anthropogeomorphology_of_Bhagirathi_Hoog/1kb8DwAAQBAJ?hl=bn&gbpv=1&dq=anjana+river&pg=PA532&printsec=frontcover |access-date=19 July 2023 |ref=anjana |language=en}}</ref>

The Anjana river is 29 km (18 mi) long, with an average depth of {{convert|3.92|m|abbr=on}}. The maximum and minimum depth of the river is {{convert|6.08|m|abbr=on}} and {{convert|0.75|m|abbr=on}} respectively. Maximum depth is observed in rural areas and minimum depth in urban areas. The river's maximum width is seen south of Purba Badkulla, 22 km (14 m) downstream from its source, where the river is {{convert|155|m|abbr=on}} wide.

==Geology==
The entire river basin is part of the [[Ganges Delta]]. This delta was formed as part of the [[Bengal Basin|Bengal basin]]. The Anjana river basin area is mainly composed of alluvium deposited by the [[Ganges]]-[[Hooghly River|Bhagirathi-Hooghly]] river system. The subterranean bedrock of the entire river basin is composed of the Ranaghat Formation. [[Sandstone]], [[limestone]] and [[shale]] are observed in Ranaghat Formation.<ref name="currentscience">{{cite web |author1=Atif Hossen Roy |author2=Alokesh Chatterjee |title=Tectonic framework and evolutionary history of the Bengal Basin in the Indian subcontinent |url=https://www.currentscience.ac.in/Volumes/109/02/0271.pdf |website=www.currentscience.ac.in |access-date=19 July 2023 }}</ref>

==History==
===15th and 16th centuries===
Between the 15th and 16th centuries, the main flow of the [[Ganges]] began to flow from the [[Hooghly River|Bhagirathi]] river bed to the [[Padma River|Padma]] river bed. During this period the [[Jalangi River|Jalangi river]] arose from the [[Padma River|Padma]], and connected the Padma with the Bhagirathi. As a result, it is assumed that the Anjana River originated as a tributary of the Jalangi River between the 15th and 16th centuries.<ref name="anjana"/>

===18th and 19th centuries===
Indigo cultivation across the [[Bengal Presidency|Bengal]] began in the 18th century. Nadia district was established as the main center of indigo cultivation. Nadia district had more than 8 thousand indigo factories, which is one-fifth of the whole of Bengal. Many indigo factories were established on the banks of Anjana river including Krishnanagar city. Indigo plants are collected from the fields and transported to the indigo factory through the Anjana river. The water required for the factory was supplied from the river.<ref name="anjana"/>

==Early Life==
Born in a quiet and remote [[small town]] of Jagdalpur in [[Chhattisgarh]] (formerly a part of [[Madhya Pradesh]]), as a [[child]], Shridhant faced challenges like lack of resources and mentor for his [[future]]-[[planning]].

After acing various quizzes and oratory competitions, he went on to win many accolades and prizes. Having a patriotic liking towards the [[civil services]], Mr. Shridhant Joshi was hell-bent on revolutionizing the [[education]] [[system]] with [[qualitative]], focussed [[learning]] that uses scientific means to instill [[knowledge]] deep into the consciousness of India’s future [[leaders]].

==Career==
Shridhant Joshi has been a [[managing director]] of India’s one of the finest [[competitive exam]] [[coaching]] [[institutions]] for almost 20 years, with a breathtaking [[record]] of more than 12,00 of their [[students]] being selected as administrative officers in almost all [[categories]], including [[civil]] [[judges]] and probationary [[officers]], across [[the country]]. He was deeply fascinated by the concept of [[Civil Services Examination]], this laid out the framework for what came in the 17 years.

This much of [[hard work]] and achievements still left an empty [[place]] in Mr. Shridhant Joshi's potential. To do more, and surpass his very limits of managerial intellect, he also kickstarted the [[Institute]] of [[Management]] & [[Entrepreneurship]] [[Studies]] (IMES), one of the first [[institutions]]of its type. His zest for [[literature]] made him start a publication [[house]] by the name of Takshashila Publications.
