England Vs Afghanistan Live Streaming, ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, Match 13: When And Where To Watch ENG Vs AFG Match

Title holders England will be up against the gritty Afghanistan for their next ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 game. Here is all you need to know about the ENG vs AFG match - timing, venue, telecast and live streaming

After a nine-wicket humbling by 2019 ODI World Cup final rivals New Zealand, England bounced back in style with a 137-run win over Bangladesh in Dharamsala on October 10. Dawid Malan came up with a blistering 107-ball 140, becoming England's oldest World Cup centurion, as the defending champions posted a mammoth 364 and then bundled out Bangladesh for 227 to storm back into the competition. For their next ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 game, England will be up against Afghanistan, another gritty sub-continental side that refuses to give up without a fight, at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.

Afghanistan are currently at the bottom of the points table with two losses from the two matches they have played. They are smarting from a thorough thrashing by hosts India suffered at the same venue as their next match. But the Afghan side aren't one to be disheartened easily. They know they had their moments with the bat against India, and could well have put up a 300-plus total if things went their way.

They also know they have a battery of quality spinners, spearheaded by a champion player like Rashid Khan, who has the ability to change the complexion of the game with both bat and ball. Had Rashid been introduced into the attack earlier against India on Wednesday, the chase might have panned out a whole lot differently.           

Afghanistan's best bet against England is to leverage their slow-bowling arsenal to spin a web around the big-hitting English top and middle order, and hope their batters do the job to upset the holders' apple cart.

Weather Conditions
Expect another hot day in Delhi with the maximum temperatire hovering around 35° Celsius. It will get cooler in the evening, though. The humidity is predicted to be 37% and there are little to no chances of rain.

Head-to-Head Record:
England and Afghanistan have locked horns just twice in ODIs, both times in the 50-over World Cup, and the English side won both the encounters comfortably. Eventual winners England crushed Afghanistan by 150 runs in the 2019 ODI World Cup, and beat them by nine wickets during the 2015 World Cup.
