England and Australia will face each other in the 36th match of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 on Saturday. England are not yet officially ruled out despite losing four games in a row and will fight to qualify for the Champions Trophy as the top eight teams, including hosts Pakistan, will advance to the main event scheduled for 2025. Australia continue On the other hand, they are moving closer and closer to their place in the knockout rounds, winning their last four games.

England and Australia meet on Saturday in the 36th match of the Cricket World Cup, the third-to-last group stage game for both sides. It has been a remarkably disappointing season for England, who entered the tournament as defending champions of the 2019 Cricket World Cup and 2023 T20 World Cup but are currently bottom of the table with just two points from six games. Australia have taken eight points from six games and appear to have a good chance of finishing in the top four. This day-night ODI will begin at 2:00 pm local time at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad.

England have been very weak in this 2023 Cricket World Cup but motivation is never needed for a game against Australia, no matter the format. Although the team's performance has been very low over the last month, England still have world-class white-ball players capable of beating the best tams.

Australia had a poor start to the tournament but have continued to improve in recent games and won a hard-fought contest with a lot of points in the final game. However, with two of their regular players out of this game, it will be a difficult game.
