Afghanistan will be aiming for their second win in the 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup when they take on New Zealand tonight in Chennai, India.

After creating the biggest shock at the tournament following their 69 runs win over defending champions England earlier this week, Afghanistan will be looking to keep the momentum going.

On the other hand, New Zealand will want to keep their winning streak going after they won all three matches so far.

New Zealand will face Afghanistan tonight at 8.30pm.

In a match earlier this morning, South Africa’s unbeaten run in the 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup came to an end after the Netherlands won by 38 runs.

Meanwhile, host India is currently leading the World Cup table with 6 points followed by New Zealand also with 6 points while South Africa is third with 4 points.
