England vs New Zealand, ICC Cricket World Cup 2019: Trent Boult's battle with Jason Roy to watch out for
Both Trent Boult and Jason Roy are the in-form players, and the performance of these two stars will determine how their respective team fares in the CWC 2019 clash.
England and New Zealand meet each other on Wednesday in a crucial game for both sides in the World Cup 2019. While a loss here will oust England from the edition, a win for either side will ensure they become the third team to qualify for the semis. The battle between Trent Boult and England opener Jason Roy will go a long way in determing the result for the game, as both cricketers are in fine form and the impact they create can be deeply crucial.
Jason Roy's absence from the team due to injury was felt deeply as his replacement James Vince failed to contribute much. The opener made an immediatel impact in his comeback game against India, scoring a quickfire fifty that set the stage for the England middle order. The English team, riding on his and Jonny Baisrtow's hundred, got close to 340, and India eventually lost the game.
The in-form player will be up against Trent Boult, who had a silent start to the World Cup but has picked up pace with regular wickets in the last few games. He scalped a hattrick in a losing cause against Australia, but one spell of his can turn the game in his team's favour. If the conditions will have something in it for the swing bowlers, Boult will have a field day, and will be looking to send back Roy early.
