An in-form India take on the Netherlands in the 45th match of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 on Sunday, November 12, at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, starting at 2:00 PM IST. The Netherlands lost by 160 runs against England, denting their hopes of a top-eight spot, which would be essential for ICC Champions Trophy 2025 qualification. They are 10th in the World Cup 2023 standings with two wins and six defeats in their eight matches. India, meanwhile, extended their winning streak to eight after a humongous 243-run victory against second-placed South Africa.
Chris Woakes became England's most successful bowler in World Cups as he surpassed former all-rounder Ian Botham after claiming a single wicket during England's 93-run victory over Pakistan at the iconic Eden Gardens. Woakes' 31st wicket was the final dismissal of the night as he bowled a slower off delivery, Haris Rauf slogged it with full strength trying to clear the boundary but his shot went straight to Ben Stokes at mid-on.
Pakistan will be needing a miracle to make it to the semi-finals of Cricket World Cup 2023 when they face a charged-up England at Eden Gardens, Kolkata on Saturday. New Zealand's net run-rate boosting five wicket-win over Sri Lanka on Thursday has virtually shattered Pakistan's semifinal hopes. The 1992 champions now have to beat England by an improbable margin to make it to the knockout round. New Zealand's NRR is +0.743 while Pakistan's is +0.036, and for the Babar Azam-led side to eclipse the former to qualify as the fourth side, it has to win by around 287 runs batting first. While chasing, Pakistan need to win with 284 balls to spare. That is an impractical task.
