IND Vs NED, ICC Cricket World Cup 2023: Unchanged India Bat First Against Netherlands On Diwali

India will look to set an imposing total against the Netherlands in their final league match of the ODI Cricket World Cup 2023

Unblemished after eight matches, India could make history if they beat the Netherlands in their final league stage game, as no team has previously won nine matches in a row in an ODI World Cup. Sri Lanka and Australia came close in 1996 and 2003, respectively, with their respective tournaments culminating in a trophy after eight games.

The Netherlands, meanwhile, could move into eighth place with a surprise triumph - something that they have achieved previously in the tournament over South Africa - and secure a spot in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 at the expense of Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
