July 14, New Zealand v England Final, 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup, Lord's, London

With the momentum that England have gathered in their last three matches beating each of India, New Zealand and Australia quite comfortably, it will require a herculean effort from the Black Caps to stage a fight and stop themselves from getting blown away in this English storm.

England were the favourites in the beginning of the tournament, but after a defeat against Pakistan in one of their earlier group matches, which was brushed aside as an anomaly, the real headache began for the team when they lost consecutive matches against Sri Lanka and Australia.

Following a spell of media scrutiny and some mudslinging, natural order has been restored as the team is back with their tag of favourites and only a huge upset can prevent them from lifting the trophy on 14 July in London.

Jason Roy has been the architect behind England's comeback and gives the team the swagger which has become synonymous to England's brand of cricket over the last three-four years. His partnership with Jonny Bairstow would be crucial for the fortunes of England in the Final.

Jos Buttler has had a subdued World Cup by his standards and he might choose the biggest stage to showcase some fireworks. England's bowlers, Jofra Archer and Chris Woakes in particular, have been outstanding and will pose tough questions in front of a New Zealand batting order which has not fired in the tournament till now.

Both openers Martin Guptill and Henry Nicholls are under serious pressure to turn things around. If the opening pair does not work, the onus will fall again on senior pros Kane Williamson and Ross Taylor. That said, each of their four frontline bowlers Mitchell Santner, Lockie Ferguson, Matt Henry and Trent Boult have had an amazing run in the tournament.

Let's have a look at the probable playing XI of both teams:

England- Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow, Joe Root, Eoin Morgan, Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler, Chris Woakes, Liam Plunkett, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Mark Wood

New Zealand- Martin Guptill, Henry Nicholls, Kane Williamson, Ross Taylor, Tom Latham, James Neesham, Colin de Grandhomme, Mitchell Santner, Lockie Ferguson, Matt Henry, Trent Boult
