Hi and welcome to the weather blog of ENG vs NZ. This Dhairya Ingle bringing you the live weather updates.

The Riverside Ground at Durham awaits for an epic battle between England and New Zealand as they look to book a berth in the semi-finals of the CWC 2019. The two teams know that a win here would see them in the semis. With a 31 run win over India, the hosts are high on confidence and would want to keep up their winning streak. With the victory, they even revived their hopes for the semi-finals of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019. Whereas, for the Kiwis, they would look to get back to winning ways as they lost their last two matches comprehensively. One against Pakistan by six wickets and Australia by 86 runs. Now, ahead of the important game, we bring you the live weather updates. England vs New Zealand Cricket Score 41th ODI Match.

Mostly the day would be partly sunny but there will be a little chance of rain. But that too would not be for a very long time. The temperatures are expected to hovering between 14°C and 19°C. The humidity will be in the 60s when the match begins but will come down to 45 as it progresses. Overall, it would be a typical balmy English weather.

The last time the two teams met each other in the CWC 2015, it was the Black Caps who walked away with the last laugh as they won the game comprehensively by eight wickets. Back then, it was quite a low-scoring game where England could only make 123 runs and the Black Caps won it quite easily. It would be interesting to see who win the contest this time.
