Show Preview

The Cricket World Cup continues this afternoon when Australia take on New Zealand in Dharamsala. Join The Roar for live scores and commentary from 4pm (AEDT).

The cooler Dharamsala climate may give both these teams some respite from the Indian heat, but there is plenty on the line in this trans-Tasman battle. A win for New Zealand goes a long way towards sealing a semi- final spot for the Black Caps, while Australia’s grip on a knockout berth also becomes a lot tighter with a victory.

After losses to India and South Africa to start the World Cup, Australia has bounced back with three straight wins. Their latest, a 309-run win over the Netherlands, broke numerous records and made the rest of the competition sit up and take notice.

David Warner is in great touch with back-to-back centuries, whilst Mitchell Marsh and Glenn Maxwell have been brutal in recent knocks. Maxwell’s 106 off only 44 balls against the Dutch came at just the right time for his confidence.

Travis Head is due to return against New Zealand, which will force a shake up in the batting order, with Marnus Labuschagne the likely unlucky one to miss out.

On the bowling front, there is still room for improvement, and the Australian quicks need wickets in the PowerPlay overs. If they can do that, Adam Zampa has shown he can take a bag of wickets, leading the tournament with 13.

Prediction

This is an important clash between two of the heavyweights of the competition. A loss for either doesn’t necessarily mean disaster, although it would place Australia on the precipice.

Australia has won its last four ODIs against New Zealand, albeit at home; they do have a bit of a hold over their Trans-Tasman rivals.

Australia will go into this one with plenty of confidence and I expect them to get the job done.

Australia by 40 runs or 4 wickets.
