New Zealand vs Afghanistan ... T20 World Cup

Seems Afghanistan are 30 runs short but with Rashad Khan in bowling Afghanistan are still in this and India are still alive

124 total is very easy. Almost run a ball to chase down.
Brilliant fielding by NZ! And that's one of the reasons, despite not producing too many great players, they are always competitive. Pure grit, hard work! And they are not nasty players either. If Pakistan were not to win then I wish a NZ of the Cup!

It is such a joy to see you in such a pain.
Match is not over yet. First 6 overs will decide the outcome of this game. If NZ doesn't loose more than 1 wicket in PP, than its all over for the Indian chances. Its all about keeping wickets since there won't be required run rate pressure on NZ batters. Guptill needs to play a little sensibly, sometimes I believe, he wants to hit every ball and throws his wicket in the process.

The Kiwis aren't going to take unnecessary risk intially. Just assess the situation and probably take singles and doubles. This is a very manageable total. You don't need to hit the ball out of the park to reach this meager total in 20 overs. Just conserve wickets and go for boundaries after 5 overs.

125 should an easy chase.

If NZ doesn't chase this down than they really don't deserve to be in the semis. Period!

NZ will be out of the tournament if they lose today. India will pummel Namibia tomorrow and qualify for the Semifinal in that case based on NRR.
Had it been England or South Africa or Australia or India chasing this 124 down, it would have been an almost a certainty. But you never know about some teams and that sadly includes Pakistan and NZ.
