TEAMS PREVIEW
New Zealand Preview
Tom Latham and his men would have their backs against the wall in this game. The side must overcome its poor show in the last game and work on its basics. The batting lineup struggled in the last game with its consistency. England will come hard on them, and Latham expects a strong show from his key players.Β
Devon Conway failed in the last game and must deliver a steady start with Tom Latham. Kane Williamsonβs form is good news for the team, and he must add runs in the middle order with Rachin Ravindra and Daryl Mitchell. Glenn Phillips and Tom Blundell are good lower-order batsmen and must do well.Β
England Preview
Ben Stokesβ team was under pressure in the last game against a confident New Zealand. However, the team pulled its weight to register a clinical win. The batting lineup did well, and the bowlers were up to the task. Stokes expects a similar show from his team in this game as they aim for an unassailable lead.Β
Zak Crawley had a poor outing in the last game, and he must improve his show and deliver a steady start with Ben Duckett. Jacob Bethell, Joe Root, and Harry Brook are in good form, making the middle order formidable. The team has depth in the batting and expects a good show from Ollie Pope, Ben Stokes, and Chris Woakes.Β
