The highly anticipated 29th match of the ODI World Cup 2023 is set to take place at the iconic Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, more commonly known as Ekana Stadium, in Lucknow. The clash features the hosts, Team India, facing off against the defending champions, England, in what promises to be a crucial encounter.

India have enjoyed an exceptional run in the tournament, remaining unbeaten in all of their five matches thus far. In high spirits they will be determined to extend their winning momentum. A victory in this match would not only solidify their status as frontrunners but also enhance their chances of securing a coveted spot in the semi-finals.

In contrast, defending champions England have encountered a turbulent journey in the World Cup 2023. Their performance in the tournament has fallen far short of expectations, with just one win to their name. As a result, they currently find themselves in the second-to-last position on the points table.
