As cricket enthusiasts prepare for the highly anticipated India-Pakistan encounter in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, a shocking forecast has created waves on social media. Abhey Singh, alias IIT Baba, prophesied during Mahakumbh Mela 2025 that India won't win the high-profile match. Talking in a very assertive manner, he said, "Main tumko pehle se bol raha hu, is baar India nahi jeetegi" (I am telling you beforehand, India won't win this time). When asked to explain, he insisted on the same thing, saying, "Ab maine mana kar diya hai ke nahi jeetegi to nahi jeetegi, ab kya bhagwaan bade ho ya tum bade ho?" (Now that I've said India won't win, it won't happen. Are you bigger than God?).

IIT Baba's prediction became a viral sensation after UNIBIT Games posted a video of his message on Instagram. The video has already garnered more than 16 million views, leading to an overflow of reactions. Some fans ridiculed his words as ridiculous, while others resorted to sarcastic humor.
One user facetiously said, "Zada padhai karna bhi khatarnaak hota hai" (Too much study is also dangerous). Another said, "He believes in karma, we believe in Sharma." A third ridiculed his speech, saying, "Bro's helping verb is ehehehehe."

This is not the first time IIT Baba has made bold claims regarding cricket. In 2024, he said that he had contributed to India's T20 World Cup win. He "guided" Rohit Sharma to believe in Hardik Pandya through an unseen network, transmitting signals through devices, towers, and cameras, he claimed.

With the match only days off, the world of cricket continues to be in two minds. Is IIT Baba just muddying waters, or is he genuinely invested in his vision? The public will know it on February 23 when India and Pakistan will clash in what is set to be an eye-popping matchup.
