The ODI World Cup 2023 is set to witness a spectacular showdown on Super Sunday as unbeaten teams India and New Zealand, face off in picturesque Dharamsala on Sunday, October 22.
New Zealand, with a commendable run rate of +1.923, currently sits at the top of the ODI World Cup 2023 leaderboard. Close on their heels is Team India, holding the second position with 8 points and a net run rate of +1.659. A win against the Blackcaps could propel India to the top, but the journey to victory is fraught with challenges.
Historical data leans in favour of New Zealand. Out of the nine encounters in ODI World Cup history, the Kiwis have emerged victorious in five. Moreover, since the 2003 World Cup, India has yet to register a win against them. The form of New Zealand players, especially the rising star Rachin Ravindra, has been noteworthy.

While the absence of Kane Williamson due to injury is a setback for the Kiwis, India too will miss the services of Hardik Pandya. However, New Zealand will be wary of underestimating the Indian side. The Indian bowlers have been consistently impressive, and the batters, led by the in-form Rohit Sharma, pose a significant threat.
