The 37th game of the CWC 2019, seems of offer quite an interesting game on the cards as New Zealand and Australia take on each other at Lord’s Cricket Ground, London. Aaron Finch and men who are placed at the top of the ICC Cricket 2019 Points table have already qualified for the semi-finals. Whereas, New Zealand is on number three with 11 points and is on their way to the semis. The two teams have met each other on 10 occasions with each other in the World Cup, where the Aussies have outplayed the Kiwis seven occasions. Rest of the three games was won by the Black Caps. New Zealand vs Australia Cricket Score 37th ODI Match.
With this, it would be wrong to say that the Aussies start as the favourites of the game. Even the winning probability tells us that Aaron Finch and men hold an edge over the Kiwis. Australia has a better chance of registering a win with 64% probability as compared to New Zealand 36%. Both teams have lost only one game in the tournament so far. Australia lost to India whereas Kane Williamson’s men lost to Pakistan and this helped the Men in Green to stay in the hunt for the semi-finals of the tournament.
Australia would look to solidify their position in the World Cup by clinching yet another win and the Kiwis would want to seal a spot into the semis. Australia is expected to go with the same playing XI as Aaron Finch mentioned that he would not want to mess around with the winning combination.
