Sri Lanka Cricket Schedule 2023 Cricket World Cup: List of Sri Lanka’s World Cup Fixtures
1. Sri Lanka vs South Africa – Oct 7, 2023
SL vs SA 2023 ODI World Cup Details
Venue: Delhi
Stadium: Arun Jaitley Stadium
Time: 2:00 PM Local (8:30 AM GMT)
SL vs SA 2023 Preview
This game will be closer than it appears. Although South Africa is in red hot form at the moment, take SL lightly at your own peril. Especially with their spinners in Delhi.
Stadium: Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium
Time: 2:00 PM Local (8:30 AM GMT)
SL vs Aus 2023 Preview
Lucknow. Spin. Australian middle order. Sri Lanka’s best time to put a statement in the tournament. If they win, they will be in contention for the race to the semis. If they lose, forget about it.
Sri Lanka should win a couple but there is too much uncertainty right now. Injuries, Shanaka’s form and captaincy, etc. We would love for Lanka to go to the semis, but it is looking unlikely at the moment.
New Zealand Cricket Schedule 2023 Cricket World Cup—The Complete Guide.
Can New Zealand take one final step towards victory this time? How does their schedule look? We will answer all of your questions.
Let’s dive in.
Key Takeaways from New Zealand’s World Cup Schedule
New Zealand begin their opening match against England on October 5, 2023 and play their last group stage match against Sri Lanka on November 9, 2023.
Except one, all of Netherlands’ matches are Day-Night affairs, scheduled to begin at 2 PM local time. Oddly enough, the marquee Trans-Tasman contest of Australia-New Zealand is the only day game.
The Kiwis will play two games at Chennai, Dharamsala, and Bengaluru (back-to-back) and one each in Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, and Pune.
In 2019, Bangladesh could have defeated NZ in a low scoring thriller had it not been a missed run out chance by Mushfiqur Rahim. That game was in England, this is in Chennai. Expect Bangladesh’s spinners to come to the party.
If the Bangladesh game doesn’t scare the Kiwis, the Afghanistan game definitely will. If it is the usual Chennai pitch, Rashid-Mujeeb-Nabi-Noor can be a handful.
Stadium: Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium
Time: 10:30 AM Local (5 AM GMT)
NZ vs Aus 2023 Preview
Should be a cracker of a contest. This race, at the moment, is too close to call. I reckon one of these two will get into the semis, but not both. This game could well be a decider.one

7. New Zealand vs South Africa – Nov 1, 2023
NZ vs SA 2023 ODI World Cup Details
Venue: Pune
Stadium: Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium
Time: 2:00 PM Local (8:30 AM GMT)
NZ vs SA 2023 Preview
One of cricket’s underrated rivalries. The scars of 2015 are still fresh for the Proteas. I’m giving South Africa a slight advantage due to incoming form, but on the day, it could be anyone’s game.
With back to back games at the Chinnaswamy – it is advantage New Zealand.
Final Thoughts
The Kiwis have a couple of slippery peels early on in spin conditions. If they lose a few up front, some of the marquee games against Australia, South Africa, or Pakistan could become virtual knockouts.
Netherlands Cricket Schedule 2023 Cricket World Cup—The Complete Guide.
Netherlands surprised everyone after coming out of the 2023 World Cup qualifiers over other contenders like West Indies, Scotland, and Ireland. What’s more, they did it with a depleted squad since several Dutch players had binding County contracts.
Now the World Cup is around the corner, and the full squad is back! Can Netherlands topple over a few World Cup giants? Can they get to the semis?
Key Takeaways from Netherlands’ World Cup Schedule

Ned vs Pak 2023 ODI World Cup Details
Venue: Hyderabad
Stadium: Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Uppal
Time: 2:00 PM Local (8:30 AM GMT)
Neth vs Pak 2023 Preview
Pakistan is one of the strong favorites for the tournament, so if the Netherlands can surprise them, they will send a strong signal to the rest of the teams in the tournament.
Stadium: Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Uppal
Time: 2:00 PM Local (8:30 AM GMT)

Ned vs SA 2023 ODI World Cup Details
Venue: Dharamsala
Stadium: Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium
Time: 2:00 PM Local (8:30 AM GMT)
Ned vs SA 2023 Preview
This will be a close one. Several Dutch players have South African origins (and de Merwe has even played T20 World Cups for both teams), so expect this game to have a bit of tension.
,Stadium: Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium
Time: 10:30 AM Local (5 AM GMT)
Ned vs SL 2023 Preview
Although Netherlands might want to avenge the 2023 World Cup qualifier defeat to Sri Lanka but given Lucknow’s pitch and the spin trio of Hasaranga-Theekshana-Wellalage, it may be a tough outing for the Dutch.
Stadium: Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium
Time: 2:00 PM Local (8:30 AM GMT)
Ned vs Afg 2023 Preview
Bangladesh may have the support in Kolkata. Shakib is a favorite son of the city, having been with KKR for a number of years. Expect this to be a close fight.
I have to be completely honest, that is a far shot given the competitiveness of the other teams in the tournament.
However, they will be no pushovers either. Expect them to score big runs, win Super overs, and bowl quick pace. Spin is where they may struggle a bit, which is why I am having them win 2-3 games out of their 9 in my World Cp predictions.
What do you think> Can they at least get to the semi-finals? Comment below.
