England Vs New Zealand Cricket World Cup 2023 1st Match Weather Update From Ahmedabad: Rain Likely To Play Spoilsport

The ICC ODI World Cup 2023 is about to kick off, and cricket enthusiasts worldwide are on the edge of their seats. On October 5, Thursday, at 2:00 PM IST, the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad will witness a clash between the reigning champions, England, and the runners-up, New Zealand. As the two cricketing giants prepare to face each other, all eyes are on the toss. Recent statistics suggest that New Zealand has a slight advantage in this department, leading 4-1 in their last five encounters. However, the World Cup’s inaugural match might see England’s Jos Buttler breaking this trend.

In terms of overall records, England holds a slender lead, having won 45 out of their 95 head-to-head clashes against New Zealand. Recent performances favour England, as they dominated their last ODI series against the Kiwis. With the pitch conditions at the Narendra Modi Stadium, a powerplay score of 50-55 and an average first-innings score ranging from 220 to 240 are expected. These conditions promise an enthralling contest between the bat and the ball.
