The New Zealand Cricket Team has low-key been one of the best performing international teams in 2025. At the start of the year, they made their way nto the final of Champions Trophy 2025, only losing to an unbeaten Indian team. Since, then, they have beaten Pakistan in ODI and T20I series, and then won a tri-nation tournament against South Africa and Zimbabwe. However, most recently, they were thrashed in a three-T20 series against Australia, losing it 2-0.
On the other hand, the ENgland Cricket Team didn’t even make it to the knockouts of CT 2025. But then, they had a fine summer at home. First was a Test win against Zimbabwe, then T20I and ODI wins against the WEst Indies. In the biggest blockbuster series of the year, the THree Lions played a 2-2 draw in the five-Test Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy against India. Since then, they have lost an ODI series to South Africa and drew the T20s on the same tour. Most recently, this team won a series against Ireland in the shortest format

NZ Vs ENG Final Hagley Oval Pitch Report
The pitches at the Hagley Oval are typically Kiwi in nature, the country not the bird. The surface provides decent pace and bounce to pace bowlers, especially with the new ball and in the first half of a limited-overs match. Winning the toss and choosing to field first is the play here. WHile there is not a lot of horizontal movement of the ball here, the decent bounce makes it difficult to score runs while batting first. But as the pitch settles down, chasing becomes much easier here. The boundaries at the Hagley are about average. The square boundary is the shorter one, about 64m in length, while the straight boundaries are about 72-75m away from the batter.
