New Zealand is set to take on Sri Lanka in a must-win World Cup 2023 game on Thursday in Bengaluru. The time when the tournament started, New Zealand looked stellar as a side as they started their campaign by outclassing England, winning by 9 wickets. But then now, they are standing on the edge of getting eliminated unless they seal a victory in this game. The Blackcaps are closely threatened by teams like Pakistan and Afghanistan for the fourth spot in the points table with all these teams scoring 8 points each.
The match is going to take place in the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru where a heavy chance of rain is predicted. According to weather.com, there is a 99 percent chance of rain at 12 p.m. and even during the daytime, there is a 69% chance of rain. If New Zealand ends up losing this match, this may be Kane Williamson's last game in World Cups. If the match gets washed out, the Blackcaps will only get 1 point. So, this is likely the final chance for fans to witness the legendary New Zealand skipper in action in a World Cup.
