England will be hosting New Zealand for 4 T20Is and 4 ODIs. As the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 inches forward, the white-ball encounters become extremely crucial for both the sides. A tussle for full supremacy, pride and prestige will be on display from both the sides.
The Three Lions are coming on the back of a 2-2 draw in Tests against their arch-rivals, Australia. As this edition of the Ashes ended in a stalemate, Australia retained the urn as they had won it in the previous edition.
On the other hand, the Kiwis are coming on the back of a 2-1 series victory in T20Is versus UAE. They also had played 2 practice matches with county teams and had comfortably won both the games.
Glenn Phillips scored 65* runs in just 37 balls in the practice T20 match versus Gloucestershire. Ish Sodhi spun a web and trapped the batters of the opposition in this game and thereby bagged 3 wickets.
New Zealand’s confident levels would be quite high as they have won the two practice games. A little bit of application from their players would result in them performing well against the home side.
