Win Projections to be updated soon
On Sunday, October 15, the ICC World Cup 2023’s 13th match between England (ENG) and Afghanistan (AFG) is scheduled to take place at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. The third World Cup match to take place at this legendary location will start at 2 IST. As we get closer to this match, it’s interesting to note that Afghanistan has only faced England in two ODIs and three T20Is, with both World Cup matches going in England’s favor.
Following a devastating loss to New Zealand, England enters this match with confidence after a dominant victory over Bangladesh. The 137-run victory greatly improved their Net Run Rate (NRR). Afghanistan, however, finds themselves in a difficult situation after suffering back-to-back defeats to Bangladesh and India in their early matches. The Afghan team is now at the bottom of the points table as a result of these failures.
As a day-night encounter, the England vs. Afghanistan game is scheduled to begin at 2 pm IST.
Weather that is hot and partly sunny is predicted, with afternoon highs of about 36 degrees. The temperature will drop to roughly 27 degrees as nightfall draws near. Dew is anticipated to be a game-changing force in the traditional sense.
The Delhi pitch deviates from its customary form.
In the ongoing World Cup 2023, the wicket at Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium has defied its customary character. It was once known for spinning, but it has now transformed into a batter’s haven. When South Africa amassed 428/5 in the first game, the trend was established. Afghanistan also managed to defeat India with a respectable 272. As they are ready to face off at this location, another high-scoring spectacle is anticipated given England and Afghanistan’s recent batting record. Depending on the conditions, a team that wins the toss could decide to chase.
