Bat first and win kinda tournament....

This is generally the kind of tournament this WC has been. Off the top of my head I believe India has been the most successful chaser only losing to England of the times they chased thus far. Therefore NZ batting first in this semi brings a more significant balance to this match...

India has to hope that they can pick up some quick wickets and that the likes of Guptil continues his dream failure from Indian's perspective...else this could turn out differently than expected...

What a truly forgettable tournament for Guptil...

Oh well the best chasers of the tournament didn't get it done yesterday, let's see if England can defy the odds of this world cup by batting second and winning.

I would love for them to but I am doubtful...

Australia recovering from a bad start to put a defendable total on the board any bet...gosh dem mek me sick yes! They just play WC tournaments too good. I would really like England to defy the odds here.....

England - winning this WC. They definitely have the firepower. Archer, woakes, wood, Rashid.
