ICC World Cup 2023: England All Rounder Ben Stokes Sure that England Can Win ICC ODI World Cup Title in India
England All Rounder Ben Stokes Sure that England Can Win ICC ODI World Cup Title in India: The Jos Buttler-led team has an excellent chance of winning its championship at the ODI World Cup in 2023, said to top England all-rounder Ben Stokes. They are a perfect team with experience playing in games under pressure, according to Ben Stokes.
The England Team is now the most dominant team in white-ball cricket. In ODIs and T20Is, the Three Lions currently hold the title of world champions. After the West Indies and Australia, they have a the potential to become the third team that can win the ODI World Cup.
“I don’t think it’s arrogance to say we’re a very good team. We’re in the mix. And what we now have in our favour, I think, is experience of huge games – an edge against sides who don’t play as many,” Stokes told The Guardian.
“I know franchise T20 cricket means a lot more players have been exposed to those situations; it’s great for that. But it doesn’t come close to wearing your country’s shirt, billions watching, knowing if you lose, you’re out,” he added.

“So much time has passed but whenever I rock up to Lord’s I remember that day,” he further added.
“Weirdly, I always think back to the six Jimmy Neesham hit during the super over. I was just smiling out there, thinking ‘100 overs, dead level, down to the wire, all the mad things that have happened, what more can this game throw at us?’ It was ridiculous.”
“That last ball of the match, the run out, everyone charging on to the field … yeah, it was pretty cool. People think I collapsed with emotion but in fact I just slipped. I thought I managed to style it out quite well.”

IPL 2024: How Can RCB Reach Playoffs After Win Against Delhi Capitals
How Can RCB Reach Playoffs After Win Against Delhi Capitals: Royal Challengers Bengaluru, headed by Faf Du Plessis, defeated Delhi Capitals by 47 runs on Sunday to record their fifth straight win and maintain their hopes of making the IPL 2024 playoffs.
With the win, RCB currently has 12 points from 13 games; the outcome of both clubs’ league final match versus the Chennai Super Kings will be determined.
If RCB can defeat CSK, they will get 14 points, which would put them in a strong position to finish in the Top 4.

Rajasthan Royals were earlier defeated by CSK; hence, RCB would need to win by a large margin to have a higher Net Run Rate (NRR).
In order for RCB to advance, the Lucknow Super Giants, who are also competing for a postseason spot, must lose one of their last two games. DC and Gujarat Titans can both get 14 points, but it doesn’t appear likely that they will be able to advance to the next round given their underwhelming NRRs.

“Dropped catches hurt us. Could’ve restricted them to 150. When you lose four wickets in powerplay, you’re always chasing the game. 160-170 would’ve been a par score. Pitch was two-paced. Some were skidding, some were holding. When your main players are run out and you lose four in powerplay, you’re chasing the game. Anything can happen, but haven’t thought that far ahead,” he said after the match.
