New Zealand vs Afghanistan Lanka FREE Live Streaming, Cricket World Cup 2023 Match 16: After a miracle win against defending champions England in their last match, Afghanistan will be facing New Zealand in Match 16 of the ICC Men's ODI World Cup 2023 on October 18 at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
Having won all of the three matches they have played so far, New Zealand are on a great run, and the Kiwis are expected to canter to a win.
However, Afghanistan has defied all odds as they registered their second win in the history of the ODI World Cup after they defeated England on October 15 in Delhi, and they could also give a tough fight in this match.
Both teams have faced each other twice in this format, with New Zealand winning on both occasions.
Afghanistan Squad: Strengths and Weaknesses
Skipper Hashmatullah Shahidi's side would be high on confidence going into the match after their win against England. With opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz scoring 50+ runs in two matches so far, it is expected that he could provide a good start at the top. Along with skipper Shahidi, Azmatullah Omarzai, and Ikram Alikhil can also provide great support to the Afghan middle order.
Moreover, on a slow-turning track in Chepauk, the Afghan spin trio of Rashid Khan, Mujeeb Ur Rehman, and Mohammed Nabi can prove to be a major threat to the Kiwi batting.
But the major concern is the lack of good pacers in the squad who were unable to pick early wickets with the new ball. They have been fairly economical so far, but if they let the New Zealand openers get set early on, then it can prove costly for the Afghan team.
New Zealand Squad: Strengths and Weaknesses
New Zealand has been a formidable side so far. Even without their skipper, Kane Williamson, they won their first two games and also dominated in their third match with him in the squad. For this match, Williamson has again been sidelined due to a fracture on his left thumb during the match against Bangladesh. Tom Latham will be back to take over the captaincy.
New Zealand has proved to be a tough contender in this tournament. The top order, consisting of Will Young, Devon Conway, Daryl Mitchell, and all-rounder Rachin Ravindra, has been impactful throughout the tournament so far. The pace department, led by Trent Boult, Lockie Ferguson, and Matt Henry, has provided breakthroughs and broken the spine of the opposition lineup.
Also, with the spin duo of Ravindra and Mitchell Santner, the Kiwis can do wonders on the Chepauk pitch. Santner is the most successful spinner in the tournament so far, picking up eight wickets in three matches.
