New Zealand vs Sri Lanka Preview
Team New Zealand
Talking about Black Caps, they have been improving their performances from past 5 years and it is expected that this time team New Zealand is going to be one of the strongest team in ICC World Cup 2019.
As of 20 February 2019, the ICC ranked the black caps 2nd in Tests, 3rd in ODIs as well as 6th in T20Is. Also, New Zealand reached the Finals of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 edition for the first time in its history, after beating South Africa in the semi-final, this also proves that they are really working hard to improve their performance since then.
Well, today we will talk about New Zealand game changer players who might help the black caps to win the tournament this time.
Well, talking about the New Zealand squad there are many of the players in the team whose individual performances is far more better than the other team players such as Martin Guptill, Kane Williamson, Tom Latham, Trent Boult, Tim Southee, Mitchell Santner and Ross Taylor, they all are in the top ranks of team New Zealand.
On the other hand, the disadvantage for New Zealand is that all these top players have not performed in a group all at once. The team has been winning frequently on the base of their specific sole performances rather than a true cooperative work.
For New Zealand, if they want to win the trophy this time then all these top players will have to perform all at once and chase in a group.
Team Sri Lanka
The 1996 World Cup Championship winner has given a decent performance in the World Cup series. In the 2007 and 2011, Sri-Lanka got the runner-up position against Australia and India respectively.
But in the recent time, it is covered up with allegations and is the center of match-fixing and corruption ahead of a Test against England last year. The performance of the team is decent in the previous year.
The game changer of Sri-Lanka might be Lasith Malinga who is the best player in the bowling department. He is also the key to any chance of Sri Lanka making an influence in England and Wales.
