England vs Australia Match Preview

In their attempt to retain the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup trophy, which they infamously won for the first time in 2019, England has had a terrible campaign.

After suffering five losses in six games, the defending champions are all but eliminated from the race for Semi-finals prior to the always-exciting match between the fierce rivals.

To maintain their slim prospects, England must win each of their final three games with sufficient convincingness to raise their net run rate to a respectable level. They also need other outcomes to go their way.

When the bitter rivals clash, form is meaningless, and England has a good opportunity against a team from Australia that was recently severely impacted by an odd injury and other personal issues.

Australia, who have won four straight games, are now third in the rankings and have qualified for the semi-finals, but they will face their old rivals without Glenn Maxwell and Mitchell Marsh.

They will both be missed, but there will also be disappointment over Maxwell, who suffered a concussion after a collision with a golf cart, and Marsh, who has returned home for family reasons. It will also mean another change for Australia, who have recently welcomed back Travis Head and named all-rounder Cameron Green and leg-spinner Marcus Stoinis in their squad.

England, meanwhile, have fitness and form issues of their own, and have yet to find a replacement for pacer Topley, who has been one of their best players but is now out of the tournament.

England vs Australia Head-to-Head

In total, 155 ODIs have been played between the two teams. England have triumphed 63 times, while Australia have triumphed 87 times. Three matches have gone without a result, while two have been tie.

England vs Australia Match Prediction

Based on Google’s win probability, Australia has a 59% chance of defeating England in this encounter.

According to CricTracker, Australia is expected to win the event for the fifth time, regardless of who bats first.

MyKhel thinks the Kangaroos will defeat their longtime rivals and win the vital two points.

Despite losing two important players in Mithcell Marsh and Glen Maxwell, the Australians should win easily given the present form of the English squad.

England vs Australia Match Pitch Report

There are eleven pitches at Narendra Modi Stadium. Of those, five are composed of black dirt, which gives them a stronger bounce and facilitates scoring. One of those mixes two types of soil, while five of those are composed of a mixture of three soils. Over time, spinners and slower bowlers gain an advantage because to the red soil pitches’ quick drying period. The combination of the two soils should provide a balanced game
