No way they're beating England and Australia/Pakistan in the knockouts with that iffy batting lineup. 

2019 I tipped Eng 

2021 NZ for WTC (one world title in the yr)

2021 T20 I am planning to go with Aus 

Eng v NZ (if it makes it to SF) is a 50/50 game on paper as NZ is like Dr. Jekyll (in group games) and Mr. Hyde (knockouts). 
 

Because of its luck, Ind beat Aus in tests so NZ would not have to play it and get a relatively easy time with Ind in the WTC final. If NZ has luck on its side, Pak will beat Aus for NZ (like Ind did in tests)

Praying for a miracle tomorrow .. I hope they lose to AFG.. will be very happy if that happens.

So much luck for NZ in the last few years.

Congrats Kiwis! ... Books a spot to clash with Eng in the T20WC SF ... if the game turns out to anything close to the 2019 WC F,

Watch them get thrashed by England in the semis.

They won't. They will get thrashed by Eng. These Neeshams and Southees will go for plenty and KW's overrated tuk tuk won't help.

Kiwis already won a world title with WTC this year. Now credit to them for making it to another knockouts and giving themselves a chance to win back to back world titles 

 

Eng v NZ on paper is a 50/50 as Eng has lost a few players & NZ tends to raise its game in knockouts. I like both Eng and NZ so hoping for an interesting game.

NZ have a reputation of always spoiling the party for us and then handing over the trophy on a platter to Pakistan. I can see that happening again.

Kiwis in another final … they are having a super 2021!!

 

If Aus makes it to the final, I expect Aus to triumph but Kiwis are always in with a chance for their fighting spirit
