Preview:

In a Trans-Tasman clash, Australia will face New Zealand in the Group 1 contest of the T20 World Cup 2022 on Saturday. It’s a repeat of the last edition’s final where Australia emerged victorious to lift the T20 World Cup for the first time. Australians can’t ask for a better place to defend the title as they are playing in front of their home crowd. They had blown hot and cold in recent times as they managed to win one of their last three bilateral T20I series. All-rounder Cameron Green has been drafted into the squad as a replacement for injured Josh Inglis which means they are without a backup wicketkeeper. Aaron Finch will be back at the top of the order. It’s a tough call to bench Steven Smith as they are looking for more firepower in the middle order. The pace battery consists of Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins, and Josh Hazlewood whereas Adam Zampa is the lone specialist spinner in the starting eleven.

New Zealand on the other hand, lost their home Tri-series in the finals against Pakistan. Kane Williamson’s form is a positive factor as the New Zealand skipper scored 129 runs in his last 4 outings. Daryl Mitchell who missed the last home Tri-series due to injury is unlikely to start against Australia. Mitchell Santner and Michael Bracewell have been phenomenal in the last 6 months and it will be interesting who will make the final eleven. Finn Allen is likely to open alongside Devon Conway. They have a 1-1 win-loss record against Australia in T20 World Cups and are hopeful of starting well in this tournament.
