Kenya and New Zealand will meet each other in the 2nd WC match to be played at Chepauk in Chennai on February 20. This second match of the World Cup 2011 will be a easy one from New Zealand point of view. New Zealand started their world cup 2011 campaign with win over Ireland on the other side while Kenya cricket team went down to West Indies in their world cup warm up match.

Performance of New Zealand is not that good from quite some time and losing to India 5-0 and to Bangladesh 4-0 is not old too, good thing about coming to world cup is that they played one of the better teams participating in the 2011 World cup cricketPakistan. Hence they are better prepared then Kenya. New Zealand batsman Brendon McCullum which is their best known and aggressive player needs to play a long inning to build up lost confidence before they take on big cricket teams in WC 2011. Other Kiwi batsmen to watch out for are Martin Guptill, Jesse Ryder, Ross Taylor and James Franklin in the second world cup match between NZ and Kenya on Sunday. New Zealandcoach John Wright shall have few new plans for NZ cricket team coming in 2011 cricket world cup final matches.

On the other side Kenya had dream run in cricket WC few years back when they reached the quarter final stages of ICC world cup. But their overall record is not that good; they are not playing with test playing nations this much. In the name of International cricket practice they played against Ireland and Afghanistan cricket teams and with West Indies in WC warm up match. Kenya cricket team must be hopping to get best out of their best players Collins Obuya and Steve Tikolo to catch up with the Kiwicricket team. These batsmen should play long inning as when you compare the bowling sides of these teams, New Zealand are far ahead, so they have to put on some runs to get best out of their own bowlers.

Pitch and conditions Kenya v New Zealand, World Cup 2011, Chennai
Slow and helpful for the slow bowlers, but no life for the fast bowlers. Batsman love to bat as there is no fear of bounce and uneven pitch moments from the wicket.
