New Zealand are in a do or die situation. They need to win this match to stay alive in the tournament. The other 3 teams, South Africa and England from Group have 2 points each. New Zealand is the only one being left out so this is their only chance to keep their hope alive. Kiwis are lacking in confidence from the last few series. They lost the series against the India earlier in the year and recently lost the series against the Sri Lanka, It’s time for them to really come forward and attack on the opposition.

Sri Lanka on other side have lost one and won one game in the tournament till now. They also need to win this game but with good run rate so that they can seal their position for the Semi-Final. Sri Lanak opened the tournament superbly but fall short against the England. So its time for they to get themselves back in the game. They have recently won the series against the kwis so they will be bit more confident than the kiwis.
Stay tuned to catch up with all the updates and highlights…
