England will lock horns with New Zealand in a Super 12 game of the ongoing ICC T20 World Cup at the Gabba in Brisbane on Tuesday, November 1. Both teams will play out of their skin with two points available for grabs.

England have had a mixed campaign so far. They occupy the third spot in the Group 1 standings with three points from as many games. Jos Buttler and Co. won their first game against Afghanistan.

However, they were handed a shocking defeat by neighbors Ireland in a rain-curtailed encounter. The English side fell five runs short via the DLS method. England’s next fixture against Australia was then washed out. England will have to beat New Zealand to boost their semi-final hopes.

New Zealand, on the other hand, are on a roll in this year’s T20 World Cup. They are still unbeaten in the competition and are currently at the top of the table with five points from three games.

The Kiwis thrashed Australia and Sri Lanka while their game against Afghanistan was abandoned due to rain. New Zealand have fired as a unit and will hope to continue their winning momentum in the upcoming games.
