Memories from 2019 are still fresh in everyone's mind. Personally I thought that the trophy was stolen from New Zealand. I don't know who is going to win today's semifinal between Pakistan and Australia, but for me New Zealand is the most probable team to win the trophy from now on. That said, I don't know what went wrong with the England bowlers yesterday. They conceded 60 runs in just 4 overs (16 to 19). Apart from Liam Livingstone, almost everyone else went for 10 runs per over or more.
It happens in T-20 format, death bowling becomes very important here when dew comes in. Even bookies were not favoring England heavily when run-rate was 9-ish and that time English bowlers were bowling beautifully. They were only marginally ahead of Kiwis. Only time England was ahead when Conway got out but Jordan messed up badly, he's not going to forget Neesham for sure.
A T20 format match has a lot of moveable parts, and things can change drastically in a few minutes. A great performance by Mitchell made the Blackcaps proud, an amazing victory by the Kiwis. The Kiwis have just made one of the greatest comebacks in cricket history. However, Neesham's innings was a game changer. Anyway, do the Kiwis get revenge for being cheated at the 2019 World Cup?
^ That's absolutely true and I know that they honestly got cheated in the last world cup because they were no less than their opponent. They scored the same amount of runs in both the 50 overs and super over but they still lost and there is no justice in that. I am so happy to see them getting their revenge. But Moeen Ali played really well for England. But for New Zealand Mitchell stole the show. Is 72 runs off 47 balls was a real gem of an innings.
