England vs New Zealand Match Prediction & Preview

England and New Zealand are set to clash on Wednesday in the first semi-final of the 2021 World Cup.

Chris Silverwood’s side wasn’t able to keep their undefeated streak alive in this year’s T20 World Cup, with an entertaining 10 run defeat at the hands of South Africa.

It was an all-round batting performance from the majority of the English line-up. However, no one was able to create a meaningful innings, juxtaposed to the South Africans, who had two players score half-centuries.

Meanwhile, New Zealand heads into this match on the back of four consecutive victories, with the latest being a workmanlike eight-wicket triumph. Although they are not the favourites for this clash, they will fancy their chances.

The bowlers have been crucial to Gary Stead’s sides success this tournament, and they have exceeded expectations and reached the semi-final. Trent Boult and Tim Southee have been immense this tournament and have combined for 18 wickets so far. They will need to get the kiwi’s off to a good start with the ball to have any chance in this semi-final.

Although England lost their last match, I still believe they will have what it takes to progress to the 2021 T20 World Cup Final on Sunday evening. However, it won’t come easy against a hungry and in-form New Zealand outfit.
