World Cup 2015: Probable New Zealand XI
The Kiwis are ateam which always used their minimal resources effectively to reach the semifinals of the ICC CricketWorld Cupbefore faltering at the stage.Their impressive record ofreaching the knockouts should not beunder-estimatedas it is definitely not easy to maintain that consistency at thebiggestcricket tournament. With them having the luxury of playing at home this time, it willfurther encourage the likes of Brendon McCullum and Ross Taylor to make full use of the opportunities.With both of them intheir 30s, the two most experienced batsmen will look to break their knockoutjinx in what might probably be their last World Cup. With an ideal bowling unit that possessmore depth than before, one can expect New Zealand to go the distance.

He is someone who is not considered by the world as an feared opener, but he surely is one who can destroy the opposition single-handedly on his day. His 189* against England at Southampton last season helping his side to post 359 is an example to his capabilities.
The two-toed (left foot) Kiwi right-hander will be keen to score more than the 262 runs he scored at the last ICC World Cup in the Indian sub-continent 2011.
