England are starting off well as front-runners to defend the title, because of their strong squad. They have a lot of experience in their squad and especially with Ben Stokes reversing his retirement, it will be a big bonus for them.
The Jos Buttler-led side are just one game up in their rivalry with the Kiwis and they will have a tough task to get a win in this game. It will be a tough call for the captain and coach to pick out the best XI for the game.

Jonny Bairstow Stats in ODI
Jonny Bairstow made a comeback after being injured, and has been just par with his performance. However, given his experience and track record, we can expect a good return from him in terms of points.
Mark Wood Stats in ODI
Mark Wood has been a consistent performer for the team, and his bowling lengths have been top-notch recently. He is a must-have player from the bowling department of this English side.
