India are firmly top of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 points table after five wins from their opening five matches.<\/p>\n

New Zealand and South Africa have won all but one of their matches so far, with both sides level on eight points, two behind India, and the Proteas (+2.370) edging out the Black Caps (+1.481) on net run rate.<\/p>\n

India had been dominant early on including a massive victory over Afghanistan, but it was their four-wicket win against New Zealand that saw them take the top spot.<\/p>\n

Captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have been the bright sparks of the home side, hitting 46 and 95 respectively against the Kiwis to secure victory.<\/p>\n

However, India have a lower net-run rate of +1.353 than both South Africa (+2.370) and New Zealand (+1.481) which will not play a part as long as they maintain their flawless start to the campaign.<\/p>\n

The Netherlands are bottom of the points table having lost all of their matches aside from the shock victory against South Africa.<\/p>\n

While Afghanistan are above England in sixth place having won two of their matches.<\/p>\n

They also hold a superior net run rate to Jos Buttler\u2019s men, with -0.969 compared to England\u2019s -1.248 ahead of their must-win clash with Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n

Bangladesh have also won just one of their matches, but from their opening five games whereas England and Sri Lanka have only played four.<\/p>\n

Australia have a far superior net run rate to those below them having found form following their defeats against India and South Africa, and currently sit fourth in the table.<\/p>\n

Pat Cummins\u2019 side have boosted their run rate to +1.142, which could help them hold on to the final semi-final qualification place, despite having just two points more than Pakistan – but their net run rate is -0.400.<\/p>\n
