Emboldened by the stunning win over fancied India in the semifinal, New Zealand's seasoned batsman Ross Taylor says the team is better prepared this time for the title clash of the World Cup.
Four years ago, New Zealand were hammered by Australia by seven wickets in the final, overawed by the occasion.
At Lord's on Sunday, Taylor believes the Black Caps will know what to expect and be better prepared to cope with the challenges of an ICC World Cup final.
"I'd be lying if I said we weren't a bit overawed by the change of scenery. I think we know what to expect, the pressures that come with it, we've been there before," Taylor was quoted as saying in the ICC website.
"You just have to enjoy it, it's the Home of Cricket, I can't think of a better place to play a final.
"Whether it's England or Australia, we have to enjoy the moment, put our best foot forward and hope for the best."
"The big boys up front were fantastic getting those three wickets and from there it was nice to be ahead of the game. Jadeja and Dhoni nearly took it away from us. There was some brilliance out there, the catch of Neesham, the run-out of Guptill without even the keeper there. Those highlights in a few years' time will be something the team will never forget."
