Saturday 9:30am: India v Pakistan Cricket World Cup group match at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, TV: Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Cricket
India to Win
Since the start of 2022, Pakistan have the highest win percentage of any ODI team (72%). However they have only played 25 matches in that time, winning 18, while India are third on the list, with a win percentage of 64% from 45 matches.
India’s recent home ODI record is phenomenal, winning 78% of their matches in this period. Pakistan have won 75% of matches on the road, though they have only played 4 away ODIs before the World Cup. It will be tight, but India’s home advantage should see them to victory.
Over 34.5 Runs Before Fall of 1st Wicket
In the opening game of the World Cup, the Ahmedabad pitch offered little help for seamers early on. Across both innings the first 10 overs offered an average of only 0.4 degrees of movement off the surface which is the lowest for any venue at the tournament so far. On this batter-friendly surface the fall of the first wicket in the first innings could be over 34.5.
Rohit Sharma has always been an attacking minded batter but this year he has gone to new levels. He is attacking 52% deliveries faced, the most he has ever attacked in a calendar year.
What’s more, he is going hard from ball one, evidenced by this figure dropping to only 47% in the first 10 overs of matches. Rohit starts fast, so if he can get in India have a great chance of having a higher score after 15 overs.
Mohammad Rizwan to be Pakistan’s Top Run-Scorer
Babar Azam is the key player for Pakistan, as captain, no.3 and the No.1 ranked ODI batter. However, his record against India is very poor by his standards. He averages 28 which is his worst against any side and he has never passed 50.
On the other hand, Mohammed Rizwan may fare much better. It is well known that India’s main bowling weapon is the left-arm spin of Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja, the pair have taken 33% of India’s wickets at this World Cup so far, but Rizwan negates this threat.
In ODIs in Asia, Rizwan averages 56.40 against left-arm spin and strikes at a respectable 91. He doesn’t get bogged down and he rarely gets out. Rizwan to be Pakistan’s top run-scorer is a smart pick.
India to Hit Most Sixes & Win Match
Since the start of 2022, India (5.98) hit almost two more sixes per ODI than Pakistan (4.19). Consider this alongside India’s home form and likelihood to win, and India to score the most sixes and win the match is a good bet.
