ICC Chair Jay Shah and Google CEO Sundar Pichai attended the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Super 8 match between India and South Africa on Sunday at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
Pichai was also present on the field during the pre-match proceedings. Google Pixel, Google’s flagship smartphone brand, is an official partner of the tournament, further highlighting the collaboration between global technology leaders and international cricket.
“When I was growing up, Sunny (Sunil Gavaskar) was a big idol for me. We used to have the Sportstar poster on my walls. So, I have followed the sport from a young age,” said Google CEO Pichai, in a conversation with Ravi Shastri during the mid-innings break of the India vs South Africa Super 8 match at the T20 World Cup.
