It will be a tough game when two continental rivals Australia and New Zealand will face each other at the home of cricket the Lords. Here are some of the players to watch out for from this top encounter.
Mitchell Starc
Certainly, the best player to watch out for in the encounter will be Mitchell Starc. The left arm fast bowler is currently the leading wicket-taker in the World Cup showing that he is the totally a big-game specialist bowler. His 4 wickets against England help the team a lot to win the match easily.
James Neesham
The Kiwi allrounder James Neesham has been impressive with the bat as well as the ball. He scored a great inning of 97 runs against Pakistan in his last match coming back to the form and was unfortunate to miss out on a ton. If he gets going in this crucial encounter then the Black Caps will surely win the match.
David Warner
The leading run scorer David Warner will have an eye on this game. He alongside Aaron Finch will look forward to scoring huge runs so that the opposition gets in the trouble from the get-go.
Lockie Ferguson
The current yorker specialist for the black caps Lockie Ferguson will have huge pressure on his shoulders as he looks forward to this big encounter. He has so far taken 15 wickets in 6 matches and has been pretty economical for the side.
Alex Carey
The middle order wicket-keeper batsman has been impressive in the finishing stages. He has been a good batsman in the ending overs producing runs when the team needs them the most. His innings of 38 not out in the last match helped Australia to post a good defending total of 285. This time also if his side will be in trouble then he would look forward to scoring well as he handles the pressure very well.
