We examine the latest updates from the India vs Australia game at the 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup, which saw Jarvo 69 invade the ground and talk with Virat Kohli in a viral video
In the ongoing ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023, the Indian cricket team faced Australia in a match held at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. The Australian captain won the coin toss and opted to bat first under the scorching Chennai sun.
An amusing incident occurred during the match involving an individual known as Jarvo 69, who made an unexpected appearance on the field while donning an Indian jersey. Security personnel promptly removed him from the field after he engaged in a conversation with Virat Kohli. What caught the attention of many was that he had traveled all the way from the UK to support the Indian team.

How Indian players reacted after Jarvo 69 invaded the MA Chidambaram Stadium?
Just before the match began, Jarvo 69 crossed the boundary and entered the MA Chidambaram Stadium’s playing area, disrupting the preparations of the Indian fielders and umpires. Security personnel escorted him out of the ground, but not without a confrontation with Kohli, who exchanged some heated words with him. KL Rahul also seemed to engage with the intruder, presumably urging him to leave the field.
Jarvo 69 first gained notoriety during an India game in 2021 when he intruded onto the Lord’s field during India’s second Test against England. Since then, he has faced legal consequences for repeatedly breaching security at international cricket venues. His appearance at the MA Chidambaram Stadium during a World Cup match was particularly surprising.
Who will win India vs Australia at the MA Chidambaram Stadium?
As for the game itself, the Men in Blue enjoyed a strong start, with Jasprit Bumrah taking an early wicket by dismissing Mitchell Marsh in his second over. Thanks to efficient bowling by the Indian bowlers, Australia was dismissed at 199-runs after 49.3 overs. Although, fans were confident that India will comfortably chase the target of 200-runs, India faced an early setback and lost three wickets before the end of first two overs. However, the partnership between Virat Kohli and KL Rahul allowed India to take control of the match. As per latest updates, India have managed 100/3 after 26-overs and need to score further 100-runs for clinching the win.
