Date changes for India-Pakistan and eight other World Cup games
Revised schedule finally released with less than two months to go before the start of the tournament on October 5www.espncricinfo.com
So, the updated World Cup schedule for Australia is as follows:
October 8 vs India @ Chennai (D/N)
October 12 vs South Africa @ Lucknow (D/N)
October 16 vs Sri Lanka @ Lucknow (D/N)
October 20 vs Pakistan @ Bengaluru (D/N)
October 25 vs Netherlands @ Delhi (D/N)
October 28 vs New Zealand @ Dharamshala (D)
November 4 vs England @ Ahemdabad (D/N)
November 7 vs Afghanistan @ Mumbai (D/N)
November 11 vs Bangladesh @ Pune (D)
Day games start at 4pm AEDST, day/night games start at 7:30pm AEDST.
That must be an error on Cricinfo's behalf, as the official ICC World Cup website has that Australia vs England fixture as a day/nighter (7:30pm AEDST start), and the New Zealand vs Pakistan fixture as the day game on November 4:The game v England is a day game 4pm start here

Does anyone care about T20 really?Interesting how we go this world cup.
After the failure in T20 WC at home last year. You would think there is a bit of pressure on the Aussies to go deep here.
Well in my lifetime it's been an expectation to win the WC having seen us lift 4 trophies in the 6 ODI WCs in my lifetime that i have watched. The 2 we didn't win were 2011 and 2019.
2019 we were actually the dominant team in the group stage and a last round loss to South Africa put us on the wrong side of the semis draw instead of the Kiwis. With Khawaja and Marsh going down with injuries meant we had lost our batting depth in the semis.
I just remember Stoinplod blocking out two overs to get his eye in before getting out not much later.2019 we were actually the dominant team in the group stage and a last round loss to South Africa put us on the wrong side of the semis draw instead of the Kiwis. With Khawaja and Marsh going down with injuries meant we had lost our batting depth in the semis.
England v India final would be likely I would say.England are up there as favourites.
