A desperate Pakistan will be wary of a competent group of Afghanistan spinners' ability to strike hard on an often-gripping Chepauk pitch during the World Cup match in Chennai on Monday. A win is mandatory for Babar Azam's side after two successive defeats against India and Australia, as another slip up will severely hamper their ambitions to reach the semifinals of the tournament. Currently, they are in the fifth position with four points from as many matches but their net run rate of -0.456 is a worry, and it needs improvement. Pakistan's big headache will be their batsmen's travails, especially against spinners.
Batting maestro Virat Kohli was at his best on Thursday night as he scored 103 not out, his 48th ODI century, guiding India to a seven-wicket win over Bangladesh in Pune. The chase master rose to the occasion once again for India as the side hunted down the target of 257 runs against Bangladesh in 41.3 overs. It was also India's fourth consecutive win in the tournament. Shubman Gill (53) and Rohit Sharma (48) also impressed with the bat but Kohli's century stole the show.

India are off to a terrific start in the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023, with four wins on the trot. India, hosting the 50-over World Cup for the first time after winning it in 2011, are relishing playing in home conditions. Rohit Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah are currently leading the run-scoring and wicket-taking list, leading India's charge for a third ODI World Cup title. Virat Kohli and KL Rahul have been impressive with the bat, while Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav are doing a lot of damage with their spin. There have been some other great individual performances from the 2011 champions, but who has been the best player so far in the tournament? Although it is a close call, skipper Rohit Sharma's impactful contribution deserves the plaudits.
Up against the joint-most in-form team in the Cricket World Cup 2023, India face a gigantic test against New Zealand in Dharamsala on Sunday. Both teams are undefeated in the tournament so far, having put in dominant performances in their respective first four matches. As the two teams reach the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala, fans expect a humdinger but the weather gods have the ability to pour cold water on the fans' hopes. The India vs New Zealand fixture is likely to be affected by rain in Dharamsala. But, could the entire match be washed out?
India's stalwart batter Virat Kohli hailed New Zealand's structure as well as their consistency and called it a major factor that contributes to their success ahead of their upcoming clash in the ongoing World Cup.

On the other hand, the Men in Blue have also recorded a perfect start, but on Sunday one team's unbeaten streak will come to an end.
