ICC Champions Trophy form guide - New Zealand

New Zealand

Form since July:

Won by 103 runs vs India
Lost by 2 wickets vs Warriors (SA)
Lost by 6 wickets vs India
Lost by 97 runs vs Sri Lanka
Lost by 61 runs vs Sri Lanka A

Summary:

The Kiwis are another country which has been starved of ODI cricket since the Twenty20 world cup, and performances haven’t been wonderful despite a confidence-boosting win against India in a warm-up game.

New Zealand has one of the tightest bowling averages in world one-day cricket and is usually superb in the field. The question mark lies over the side’s ability to perform consistently with the bat.

But don’t be surprised if they can spring a surprise couple of wins required to make the semi-finals.
