2019 ICC World Cup in England & Wales May 30 to July 14,2019 - Final England Vs New Zealand @ Lord's Sunday July 14,2019

 

England are set to take on New Zealand at Lord's in the World Cup 2019 final on July 14 in a bid to become the third nation after India and Australia to lift the trophy on home soil



In the past, England has hosted the World Cup four times but are yet to win the world title. England will be playing their first 50-over World Cup final since 27 years, after the 1992 edition in which they lost to Pakistan in the summit clash. Before that, England had played the finals in 1979 and 1987

The final on Sunday will be the fourth instance when the two sides who had previously never won the World Cup will be facing each other. The other three were in 1975 (West Indies Vs Australia), in 1987 (Australia Vs England) and in 1992 (Pakistan Vs England).

Kiwis have a great pace attack with the likes of Trent Boult, Matt Henry and Lockie Ferguson in their ranks, they might have the veteran Ross Taylor to get runs in the middle-order.

However, compared to England's stature as a complete team, New Zealand are more of a one-man army. 

Kane Williamson's intelligent captaincy, level-headedness and impeccable technique as a batsman stand between the hosts and a maiden World Cup trophy
