MATCH PREVIEW FOR NEW ZEALAND VS AUSTRALIA

The first match of the Super 12 is between the two Trans Tasmanian legends. The World Cup winner Australia will take on New Zealand. Australia looks all good to defend their World Cup title. The blackcaps have a poor record in Australia. But you cannot rule them out in an ICC event. They play very well together as a unit and have the ability to win crucial moments. Both teams play well under pressure and it already promises to be a cracker of a contest.

Australia clashed against their neighboring rivals New Zealand at the Sydney Cricket Ground on 22nd October, Saturday. The match will start at 12:30 PM IST.
