Let’s get into the preview for the first match of the World Cup. England are the defending champions and they will look to get the perfect start to the tournament. They will have to play their best cricket and they will have to score lots of runs and bowl very well. England will have to play ruthless cricket.
On the other hand, New Zealand will remember the final of the last World Cup and they would want to avenge that defeat. They will have to play the best they have played as England will give them little chances. They have to bat well and take Wickets of England at regular intervals. This match should be a blockbuster.
