The amount of excitement in football fans is at sky-level as Football legend Lionel Messi may be seen playing cricket later this year, as plans are underway for him to participate in a seven-a-side exhibition match at Mumbai's iconic Wankhede Stadium on December 14. If all goes well, Indian cricket greats like MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli, Sachin Tendulkar, and Rohit Sharma could join the star-studded lineup. The event is being organised as part of Messi's promotional tour of India. According to the Indian Express, A prominent event management agency has reportedly approached the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) to book the stadium for the match. The organisers are currently finalising the logistics. 'Messi will be at Wankhede Stadium on December 14. He is likely to play a cricket match, too, with former and current cricketers. The organisers will come up with a complete schedule once everything is finalised,' a source from the MCA told The Indian Express. Messi's upcoming visit is expected to span from December 13 to 15. In addition to Mumbai, the Argentine superstar may also travel to New Delhi and Kolkata. This will be his second trip to India. His first visit was in 2011, when he led Argentina in an international football friendly against Venezuela at Kolkata's Salt Lake Stadium. Earlier this year, there were also reports that the Argentina national football team would visit India in October for friendly matches. Kerala's Sports Minister V Abdurahiman had announced an agreement with the Argentina Football Association (AFA) to host two matches in the state. However, those plans appear to have been put on hold. World Cup Glory Lionel Messi led Argentina to victory in the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, securing the only major trophy missing from his impressive career. This was Argentina's third World Cup title and their first since 1986. At 38, Messi currently plays for Inter Miami in Major League Soccer and is preparing for what could be his final appearance at the FIFA World Cup in 2026, to be hosted in the United States. The World Cup glory cemented his status as one of the greatest players in football history. If the cricket match goes ahead, it will offer fans a rare and exciting crossover moment between two of the world's most beloved sports.

'Needed To Hear Those Words...': De Paul Opens Up Messi's Advice Following Miami Switch
De Paul revealed that he enjoyed playing alongside Lionel Messi in national colours, and added that playing for the same club would permit the duo to spend more time together. Inter Miami new recruit, Rodrigo De Paul, expressed his delight to be able to share the locker room with national side skipper Lionel Messi on the club level too, following his move to the MLS from La Liga side Atletico Madrid. De Paul revealed that he had always enjoyed playing alongside the eight time Ballon d'Or winner in national colours, and added that playing for the same club would permit the duo, who played a crucial role in Albiceleste's third World Cup title, to spend more time together. 'Every time we would meet in the national team, the day-to-day was amazing, but at the end of the day, it ended up being quite short," De Paul reflected. 'I also wanted to feel that sensation of playing alongside the best," he added. The Herons secured the 31-year-old on loan before the deal becomes permanent in 2026, with the transfer reportedly around £15 million. De Paul started his career at Racing Club before moving to Valencia in 2014. The midfielder joined Udinese in 2016, then moved back to La Liga with Atletico Madrid in 2021. De Paul had a couple of offers from European outfits ahead of his move to American shores, but the Argentine opted to play alongside Messi and expressed his interest in learning about the new territory he picked out. De Paul, widely recognised for his role as a defensive midfielder, joins the support team Miami has built around their superstar Messi. He follows in the footsteps of Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets, and Jordi Alba, joining the legendary player from Rosario in the United States after Messi's move last year. 'He told me, 'I know what you can give me on the field. I know who you are,'" De Paul revealed what his compatriot told him following his move to the Florida-based club. ''I'm only going to evaluate what you do on the field. As long as you play and you're feeling well, I know the class of player that you are.' I needed to hear those words," he averred. view comments First Published: August 02, 2025, 10:12 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
