The ICC T20 World Cup 2022 Super 12s will begin today. Australia vs New Zealand is the first game of the Super 12s. The Oceania Derby happens to be a recap of the final of the last T20 World Cup. Both teams will be rooting for each other to play against each other and show their mettle. Even though New Zealand isn’t in the best of shape, their skills are extraordinary. Here is an in-depth look at the same:
New Zealand Preview Before Australia VS New Zealand, ICC T20 World Cup:
New Zealand VS Australia will get underway at 12:30 pm. With that being said, it will be great to see how New Zealand shapes up. The squad is not in prime form. All of the players were playing exceptionally well last time but it is not the case this time. One of their practice games against India got washed out as well. Devon Conway is a key player and so is Kane Williamson. Kane Williamson will have to remain fit throughout the tournament. His presence is a mental benefit for the Kiwis at the ICC T20 World Cup.
New Zealand Squad and Playing XI:
Kane Williamson (c), Tim Southee, Martin Guptill, Ish Sodhi, Mitchell Santner, Lachlan Ferguson, Glenn Phillips, Jimmy Neesham, Daryl Mitchell, Adam Milne, Devon Conway, Trent Boult, Mark Chapman, Michael Bracewell, Finn Allen.

Australia Preview Before Australia VS New Zealand, ICC T20 World Cup:
The Australian team is the favorite for winning and successfully defending their title. The men in yellow have what it takes to be world champions. The team has just one recent change. Josh Inglish who suffered a freak injury while playing golf has been replaced by Cameron Green. Green seems to be in the form of his life. He had recently taken apart the Indian bowling lineup. He can be their pinch hitter if required. He can also be an effective replacement for Marcus Stoinis or Tim David if they get injured during the ICC T20 World Cup.
Australia Squad and Playing XI:
Aaron Finch (c), Pat Cummins (VC), Ashton Agar, Tim David, Josh Hazlewood, Josh Inglis, Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Kane Richardson, Steven Smith, Mitchell Starc, Marcus Stoinis, Matthew Wade, David Warner, Adam Zampa.
