The New Zealand team, which finished second in the last t20 world cup, is also a strong contender this time around. The Blackcaps will compete this year to avenge their loss to Australia in last year’s final. The Super 12 round of the T20 World Cup kicks off between New Zealand and Australia. The New Zealand team led by Kane Williamson is excellent in batting and bowling. New Zealand is in Group 1 with the strong teams Australia, England, and Sri Lanka.
This World Cup is crucial for the New Zealand team, as they have not been able to win the ICC World Cup so far. The New Zealand team is the runners-up in the 2015 and 2019 ODI World Cup and the 2021 T20 World Cup.
