Men’s ODI WC: High-flying India Eye Continuing Winning Juggernaut Against Listless England (preview)
BRSABV Ekana Cricket Stadium: When the 2023 Men’s ODI World Cup schedule was announced in June, one would have looked at October 29 and marked the India-England clash at the BRSABV Ekana Cricket Stadium on their calendar as a marquee clash – the tournament hosts’ up against the defending champions.
Cut to now and India have very much lived up to the pre-tournament billing of being the hot favourites – winning five out of five matches and looking at a top-two finish in the points table. But the script hasn’t panned out in the way one had it in mind for England, with the reigning champions looking listless in losing four out of five matches and staring at an early exit from the competition.
After unwinding in the cool climes of Dharamshala post a four-wicket triumph over New Zealand at the HPCA Stadium last week, India enter Sunday’s clash by sweating it out in Lucknow for the last two days, with an eye to continue their winning momentum.
