Cricket Betting Events this Week: World Cup, The Ashes, and the Indian Premier League

 

India Favorites as they Host World Cup

When: October 2023 – November 2023
Format: One Day International
Participants: 10
Matches: 48

The men’s 2023 ICC World Cup was originally scheduled to be played in February and March. However, the COVID-19 pandemic delayed qualifying, and the tournament was moved to October and November. Hosted by India, the ICC World Cup will draw tremendous crowds and excitement this fall when action finally gets underway. 

India has co-hosted three previous events, but the 2023 edition will be the first time the event is completely held in the country. Three of the 10 spots are still up for grabs in qualification, but superpowers England, New Zealand, Pakistan, and Australia are already qualified, along with host India.

England are the defending champions from 2019 as they defeated New Zealand in the finals in London. The title was the first for England, who hadn’t reached the final since 1992. Australia and India were the other semifinalists four years ago and are threats to win it all this fall. 

Australia have won five titles since 1987 and have reached at least the semifinals in seven of the last nine World Cups. India have reached three straight semis but haven’t won since 2011, and Pakistan last won the title in 1992. New Zealand hasn’t won yet but have reached six semifinals in the last two events with two straight runner-up finishes. 

India are the favorites at +224 at MyBookie, with England at +280 to defend their title. Australia is +400, Pakistan is +660, and New Zealand is +770, with everyone else at least +1000
