Watch England Vs. New Zealand Cricket Live Stream: 2019 Cricket World Cup Final Will Produce 1st-Time Champion

In a 2019 Cricket World Cup final that matches the teams that placed third and fourth on the group stage table, one outcome is certain. When England and New Zealand finish their match, the Cricket World Cup, in its 12th edition, will see its sixth different champion, as CricBuzz noted. Neither side has captured the cup, though New Zealand got all the way to the final in 2015, only to lose in decisive fashion to Australia.

As for England, the country that invented the game of cricket in the first place, they have played in a World Cup Final only twice, but not since 1992. But hosting the Cup tournament, England were tabbed as favorites from the start, as The Inquisitr reported. They will get a chance to make good on the predictions in the match that will live stream from Lord’s.

England remains the favorites heading into the World Cup final, having crushed the Black Caps by 119 runs just 11 days ago, as CricInfo reported, putting up a first-innings total of 305 then bowling out New Zealand for just 186.

And in truth, New Zealand have not played overly impressive cricket in the tournament, but they snuck into the semifinal thanks to the net run rate tiebreaker with Pakistan. They then stunned India in the semifinal with a narrow, 18-run win, bowling out the world’s second-ranked ODI side, per ICC Cricket, in the 49th over. Now they will need a similar performance against the world’s No. 1 side, England. But the Black Caps say they are ready.

“We will be the underdogs but that is something we enjoy – to just scrap, put up a bit of a fight,” New Zealand veteran No. 4 batsman Ross Taylor told The Guardian. “We still haven’t played the perfect game in this tournament. But, if we can keep those traits that we know we have, we will give England a run for their money.”

Just a few days more than one year after England suffered elimination from the FIFA World Cup in that tournament’s semifinal, as India Today noted, England now has a chance to take a first-ever World Cup trophy in another sport that the English originated.
