You do not want to turn back the clock and remind New Zealand what happened on 14th July 2019. The healed wounds open up, and it just turns salty. Especially, when they are going to face England. 

It is the battle between two of the fiercest rivals of world cricket who don't know 'no' for an answer. So, it is England vs New Zealand at the Gabba, Brisbane, in the T20 World Cup 2022 and dare you say the word 'Super Over'.

The English side have lost to rain twice and will hope that this time they get the opportunity to display their lethalness. Kiwis, on the contrary, have their one foot in the semis. A loss for the Englishmen would mean their campaign will ride on a thin piece of thread that their other competitors will hold.

Match Details

Match: England vs New Zealand, Match 33, Super 12 Group 1, T20 World Cup 2022
Time & Date: 1st November 2022, Tuesday, 1:30 PM (IST)
Venue: The Gabba, Brisbane
Streaming & Live Broadcasting: Star Sports Network and Disney+ Hotstar

Pitch Report: With an average score of around 160, the Gabba is highly suitable for playing the shots but be aware of the bounce that comes in the way. With sunny weather, there shouldn't be any problem as the skies will mostly be clear.

Probable Playing XI 

England: Jos Buttler (c & wk), Alex Hales, Dawid Malan, Ben Stokes, Liam Livingstone, Harry Brook, Moeen Ali, Sam Curran, Chris Woakes, Adil Rashid and Mark Wood.

New Zealand: Finn Allen, Devon Conway (wk), Kane Williamson (c), Glenn Phillips, Daryl Mitchell, James Neesham, Mitchell Santner, Tim Southee, Ish Sodhi, Lockie Ferguson and Trent Boult.

Prediction

With neck-to-neck competition, there is no clear favourite, as has been the case in this entire competition. None of the sides here has any advantage as it solely depends on the current day conditions. However, with New Zealand being in some serious form, they look more adept to the challenge and hence, should win.
