who would you want India facing in semi-final - Aus or NZ?  I would rather face NZ I think.

NZ. Because of zampa

Same NZ.

 

But the way NZ is playing, I think Pak will qualify over them as 4th spot

I would be happy to face PAK instead of NZ or any other team in  Semi final.  they would be the weakest possible opponent for us.  And we match up really well against them.

Handled him well in Chennai. But it has to be bowler friendly deck. Can;t chase 320 v them.

I mean they have to  know by now how the balls moves under lights in almost all matches and yet they decided to bat under lights,this decision may have doomed their WC chances.

Mumbai is a flatbed. If Aus bat first and get 320, it's pretty much game over.

I don't think so.  Anything below 330 is reasonably gettable for us.  North of that is where India's chase odds start dropping quickly.

NZ still has SL as it's last match. NZ will win that fairly easy imo. Even if Pak beats NZ by a big margin, it would still have to beat ENG by a bigger margin than what NZ beats SL.

Mahendra Singh Latham said he will field first if he win toss again on this pitch. How come this dheeth still captaining nz.

Pakistani have no chance to defeat nz on RR…. Only chance iis they have to win all and nz has to loose all. For re they have to defeat eng for mroe than 250 runs.
