The New Zealand had a bomb start to their World Cup campaign. They are on the top of the table in group no 1 but lost their recent match against England. They won their first match against Australia with a big margin and due to that they had a great Run rate while their second game against Afghanistan got washed out. The New Zealand team is full of brilliant players. Their captain, Williamson, although there have been some criticism of his recent performance especially in the T20I format is a calm and cool minded sportsperson.
Jimmy Neesham is one beast of a player as he is an all-rounder but recently, he has been little out of touch but he can hit the ball finely as he has some serious strength while Daryl Mitchell is another man who can bat magnificently while Finn Allen, who replaced Guptil in the playing 11, played a ferocious innings of 42 runs on just 16 balls. He is proving to be a great aggressive opener. Devon Conway showcased his class in the match against Australia and scored 92 unbeaten runs on 58 balls and earned the MoM award. On the other hand, Glenn Philips has been magnificent until now. He proved to be a fine batsman who is a great fielder too. In pace bowling, they have the likes of Trent Boult, who needs no introduction at all, Adam Milne, Tim Southee. All these pace bowlers will be crucial for New Zealand as everyone is aware of the fact that Australian pitches favor the pacers while Santner carries the spin bowling attack
Ireland is in a fragile position currently in group 1. They are on the 5th spot currently. Ireland defeated England while their match against Afghanistan got washed out due to rain. They currently have 3 points but not a good run rate.
Their win against England in the recent match must have boosted their confidence to the next level. They won by 5 runs due to DLS method when rain interrupted the play and the match couldn’t proceed further. The explosive starting overs saved Ireland that day. They have a power-hitter as their opener, Paul Stirling, who is a wonderful slogger of the ball and showcased his worthiness in the last match of World cup qualifiers against West Indies by scoring an unbeaten and match winning 68 runs. Another prominent batter from the Irish side is Andy Balbirnie who is the captain of the Ireland team who scored 64 unbeaten runs against England. Lorcan Tucker who has been quite impressive since the tournament started. While in the last year, Craig Young, Andrew Mcbrine and Mark Adair have performed exceptionally in the bowling department.
Prediction
New Zealand are looking favorites. They have a balanced and an experienced side comparatively. Moreover they’ll be trying their best to win this match to confirm their spot in the semi-final.
