Match Preview
The hosts, India, are set to play Sri Lanka in their seventh clash of the ODI World Cup 2023. The match is slated to take place on November 2, Thursday, at the iconic Wankhede Stadium. It is the same ground where MS Dhoni's side defeated the Lankans to lift the coveted World Cup trophy for the second time in 2011. The Men in Blue are in their best form, having won all fixtures they have played in the tournament so far. Not only this, but with an undefeated streak of six matches, they rule the standings.

The Islanders, on the other hand, have won two out of six matches they have played so far, and thus, currently sit at the sixth spot.
Toss Prediction
India captain Rohit Sharma managed to win one toss in his side’s previous three clashes. Sri Lanka’s captain Kusal Mendis, on the other hand, didn’t manage to win any of the toss wars in the last three games. Speaking of the forthcoming match, we think that the home ground factor might favour Rohit Sharma and he will win the toss.
Win Possibility
The way India have performed throughout the season, it goes without saying that the two-time champions are in their best form. They are coming on the back of remarkable wins over strong contenders, including New Zealand, Australia and England. The South Asian teams share a rivalry of 167 ODI matches, where the Men in Blue hold a record of 98 wins, while Sri Lanka’s record reads 57 wins.
In recent times, Rohit Sharma and Co. defeated their Lankan counterparts to lift the Asia Cup 2023 title for a record eighth time. All these records clearly signify that the hosts will carry forward their win momentum and put in their best to extend the win tally to 7-0.
Predicted Powerplay Score and Average First Inning Score
The Wankhede Stadium of Mumbai has hosted a total of 24 ODI matches. Speaking about the ongoing season of the World Cup, the cricketing venue has been slated to host a total of five matches, including the semi-final clash of the marquee ICC event. The average first inning score of the venue is 245, and we think it will hover around 270-285 in the next game. Speaking of the powerplay, it is expected to lie somewhere between 45-50.
