In the upcoming ODI World Cup showdown, Australia is set to take on England at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. Australia, sitting 3rd in the points table, has been in exceptional form, winning four out of their last five matches. England, on the other hand, is struggling at 10th position, managing just one win from their last five outings. Given Australia’s dominant form and England’s woes, it’s shaping up to be a fascinating contest.
Head-to-Head
Australia has been in excellent form in the World Cup, with their top order, particularly David Warner, in sublime touch.
Despite the loss of Mitch Marsh and Glenn Maxwell, the depth of the Australian squad is expected to cover up adequately.
England, meanwhile, has been struggling, with their batting order underperforming.
Head-to-head statistics also favour Australia, who have won four of the last five matches against England.
The recent form, player performances, and historical data suggest Australia will be too strong for England.
Most Runs
Warner has been the leading run scorer for Australia in this tournament with 413 runs at a strike rate of 112. His recent form and the pitch conditions at Ahmedabad, which favour batting, make him a good bet for the highest run-scorer.
Most Wickets
Zampa has been the standout bowler for Australia with 16 wickets at an average of 19. His economy rate of 6.22 also suggests he’s been hard to get away. Given his form and the conditions, he is the best bet for Australia.
