It was a starry affair at the Narendra Modi stadium as the skippers of all ten World Cup teams attended the captain's day.

The stage was set at the largest cricket stadium in the world as the skippers engaged in some fun-filled banter before the marquee event got underway. The discussion was hosted by Ravi Shastri and 2019 World Cup winning captain Eoin Morgan on the eve of the World Cup opener.
