New Delhi: New Zealand and Australia will meet in the final of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup final on Sunday and while they are two contrasting units, it will be a battle of two highly equipped teams at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium.
The Aaron Finch-led side has lost one match in the ongoing tournament when the team went down to England last month. Since then Australia has revamped themselves and are on the winning run going into the finals of the T20 World Cup.

New Zealand lost fast bowler Lockie Ferguson to injury before the tournament and now will be without batter Devon Conway for the final. Conway suffered a hand injury after punching his bat after being dismissed in the semi-final.
While these are two contrasting units, both are high on confidence after inspired shows in the semi-final games and it will all boil down to who manages to hold the nerves better in the summit clash.
One final prep ?
