England vs New Zealand, 1st Semi-Final - Live
 |
| England vs New Zealand |
This game will, in many ways, be a clash of styles and of tactics. New Zealand made England play an attritional game in that 2019 World Cup final which suited Williamson's side better than it did Morgan's. If New Zealand can do the same again in Abu Dhabi, they will have a fighting chance of gaining retribution.
When: England v New Zealand, 1st Semi-final, November 10, 18:00 Local, 19:30 IST
Where: Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi
What to expect: Surfaces in Abu Dhabi have been the best for batting of all three venues and it could be similar again for this game. Indications are that the pitch will be in the middle of the square so the batters will not have a short boundary to target. At least that should give the bowlers a little something to work with.
T20I Head-to-Head: England have the edge here having won 13 of the 21 T20Is played between the two sides while New Zealand have won seven (with one No Result). In T20 World Cups, the record is closer with England winning three and New Zealand two of their five encounter
Squads:
England Squad: Jos Buttler(w), Jonny Bairstow, Dawid Malan, Moeen Ali, Eoin Morgan(c), Sam Billings, Liam Livingstone, Chris Woakes, Chris Jordan, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood, David Willey, James Vince, Reece Topley, Tom Curran
New Zealand Squad: Martin Guptill, Daryl Mitchell, Kane Williamson(c), Devon Conway(w), Glenn Phillips, James Neesham, Mitchell Santner, Adam Milne, Tim Southee, Ish Sodhi, Trent Boult, Todd Astle, Kyle Jamieson, Tim Seifert, Mark Chapman
