In depth previews of the Cricket World Cup 2023 begin with Netherlands, Afghanistan and New Zealand. The ODI Cricket World Cup schedule is fixed, and the tournament is about to begin. We walk you through our predictions, as we preview the first 3 teams in the tournament. Two of the teams will be trying to battling to win any cricket matches they can, whilst the third will be hoping to make it to the World Cup final.

Will Rashid Khan help the Afghans surprise a few of the big boys? Can the Netherlands do anything in India? And will New Zealand make it third time lucky?

We preview each team, predict a starting XI, talk about strengths and weaknesses, and even nominate a national animal!
