England vs Australia Cricket World Cup 2023: Expected lineups, head-to-head, toss, predictions and betting odds

England and Australia will lock horns in the 36th match of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 on November 4 at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad.

While Australia are vying for the semi-final spot, England are virtually out of the knockout contention, but they too have so much to fight for as the Champions Trophy 2025 qualification is on the line for them.

Australia are marching on a four-match winning streak. They recently defeated New Zealand in a high-scoring affair by five runs in Dharamsala. They will be without Glenn Maxwell and Mitchell Marsh for the clash versus England.

England, in their previous World Cup outing, gave Indian batters a run for their money. However, their own batting line-up witnessed an unreal collapse as they failed to chase down 230 runs, getting bowled out at a score of 129.

England vs Australia: Prediction for CWC 2023 match 

Both these sides have had history attached to their rivalry. But this year, there is no such hype around the game, particularly due the fact that England are underperforming.

Who knows, this might suit the Three Lions as they go into the match with no burden of expectations. However, Australia are a much balanced team as compared to England and should come out victorious.
