The 44th game of the ODI World Cup 2023 will witness England (ENG) take on Pakistan (PAK) at the famed Eden Gardens in Kolkata. The match is to be played on Saturday and this is the final game of the ODI World Cup 2023 for both sides.
With New Zealand’s massive win over Sri Lanka on Thursday, Pakistan finds itself in a bad situation. The 1992 World Cup winners needed to win by a huge margin in order to make it to the knockout stages of the tournament.
England on the other hand is coming on the back of winning their previous game versus the Netherlands. This win has pushed England to number 7 in the table. Another win for Jos Buttler and his side will see them earn qualification for the Champions Trophy in 2025.
