In the 40th match of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, England won the coin toss and elected to bat first against the Netherlands. 

This game is taking place at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Mumbai.

England, led by Jos Buttler, is determined to put an end to their losing streak in the ongoing World Cup after a series of defeats.

They face the Netherlands at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune.

England currently finds themselves at the bottom of the ten-team standings, with only one victory in seven matches played so far.

While they are no longer in contention for the semifinals, England still has plenty to play for.

With just two matches remaining, including the one against the Netherlands, they aim to secure consecutive wins and potentially finish at least seventh in order to qualify for the ICC Champions Trophy, scheduled to be held in Pakistan in 2025.

Their opponents, the Netherlands, have managed to secure two victories in the tournament.

They occupy a position just above England in the standings and are looking to conclude the competition on a positive note.

The Netherlands previously surprised everyone with a win against South Africa and secured an 87-run victory over Bangladesh.

After their encounter with England, the Dutch team will face India in their final match of the World Cup.
