The world cup has already began but still only with some plays between the minnows and biggies and yet the big matches are to come.Except the match between England-Holland,no match has yet provided the necessary impetus on the anticipated excitement of the world cup among the masses.The dutch showed a gigantic heart to compete against the Poms,and they almost came close to shock the T20 champions.However amid all these matches the most exciting phase is most likely to come when the bitter trans-Tasman rivals come to lock horns on Friday.
With the recent marauding of the minnows Kenyans the kiwis spirit have really been boosted and their bowling is looking really dangerous.They didn’t have to use a single sweat against the Kenyans and rolled over them in an inimitable fashion.Whereas the Aussies had to strive hard in the initial phase of their match against Zimbabweans,though they also won it with a comprehensive margin in the end.But they had to sweat hard in their batting phase and the target was not very stiff,but their venomous bowling trio of Johnson,Lee,and Tait made a mockery of the Zimbabwe batting,Hence from bowling point of views both Aussies and kiwis are seemingly on almost equal terms and promises to be a cracker of a contest.The history is full of lots of close encounters between these two rivals and it also been seen that it brings best out of both these countries as if they love playing against each other.
Both these teams are full of all rounders who can take the game away on their own.Kiwis have got one of the most talented line-up in world cricket and their batting runs way down to 10th-11th depending upon their team selection.Some of the real key contest can be seen as Ponting vs Vettori, Oram vs Johnson,Lee vs Mills, McCullum vs Haddin Ross Taylor vs Watson,and all these players with others too will be really keen to prove themselves again to each other on the world’s greatest stage.With the recent mishaps in Christchurch the kiwi players are more determined to give some condolences to their countrymen and try to bring somewhat smiles on their face by winning this key clash against the Oz.This makes this very unpredictable kiwi side all the more dangerous and Aussies must brace up to this clash by correcting whatever loopholes in their all the three departments of their games.Both these team know that they will really have to raise their standards when they are facing each other.Some of the new faces in both sides who are already looking in dangerous form like Hamish Bennett(Nz), Jason Kreza(Aus),will be really keen to make their mark in international arena and what better way than performing in world cup match against each other,These all things makes a perfect ingredient for a classic encounter in WC2011.So let the game begins and get ready to bite your nail and get hooked because it promises to go down to the wire.All the best to both the teams and may it provide one of the best spectacles of this world cup.
