Match Preview
In the 12th of the 45-match-long ICC ODI World Cup 2023, the hosts, India will lock horns with their cricketing arch-rivals Pakistan. India and Pakistan share a bittersweet rivalry, and the matches between the neighbouring nations are always a treat to watch. The high-octane match will take place on October 14, Saturday, at the world's largest cricket stadium, Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. This will be for the first time that Pakistan will play against the Men in Blue on their soil after seven long years.
Toss Prediction
Both India and Pakistan share a glorious rivalry of 134 ODI matches. If we consider their last five encounters, the Men in Green have come on top on four occasions in the toss wars. It means the toss tally between the cricketing arch-rivals read 4-1 in favour of the Pakistanis. However, if we talk about the forthcoming match, we believe the home-ground factor will play its charm and Rohit Sharma will win the toss.
Win Possibility
The rivalry between both countries is one of the most talked about and highly enjoyed rivalries among the fans. As it is mentioned they have played against each other in 134 matches, and among those, India has won 56 matches whereas Pakistan came out victorious in 73 matches.
However, in their seven World Cup fixtures, India defeated their counterparts in all the matches. Not only this, but Rohit Sharma's squad also took down Babar Azam's men in their Asian Games match. This means that the 1983 and 2011 World Cup winners are ready to extend their win record 8-0 against their rivals and they are clear favourites to win the upcoming game.
Predicted Powerplay Score and Average First Inning Score
A total of five World Cup 2023 matches have been scheduled to take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium. Commonly known as Motera Stadium, the cricketing venue in Ahmedabad has hosted a total of 29 matches. The average first-inning score of the venue is 235, and given the conditions and both the squads, we can expect the first-inning score of the forthcoming game to be somewhere between 280-30 0. Speaking of the powerplay score, we can expect it to hover around 50-55 in the highly anticipated match of the World Cup 2023.
