Analysis

Despite being called one of the dark horses for the World Cup, New Zealand has started the tournament with two statement wins. Blacks caps have put in strong team efforts to consolidate their top spot on the table. Batting has been incredibly fluid and perfectly adapted to the conditions. Whereas the bowling has stepped up to give the Kiwis a fighting chance in the tournament. 

On the other hand, Bangladesh were under the pump as they suffered a massive loss against England. Despite a decent effort with the ball, the Bangladeshi bowlers will need to step up and use the conditions in their favour. But the batting lineup will be the team’s biggest worry as they have failed to score against top-tier bowling attacks.
