England topped out their group at the T20 Cricket World Cup and are through to the semi-finals of the tournament.

England Preview – England favourites to take their place in the final

It was a W4 L1 record from England during the Super 12 stage of the T20 Cricket World Cup.

They came out blazing, powering their way to rapid victories over reigning champions West Indies and then Bangladesh.

Eoin Morgan’s men then tore the challenge of Australia to shreds before seeing off Sri Lanka in a tricky match in which England had to defend after batting first.

England were then humbled a bit in a loss against South Africa in their final group stage match.

England failed to chase down a total of 189 set by the Proteas who put on an astonishing finish to their innings.

Still, it was a narrow defeat for England who fell 11 runs short of success only.

In the match outright for T20 World Cup cricket betting, England are the 8/15 favourites * (odds recorded 18:54 GMT on 8th November 2021).

The net run-rate they posted in the Super 12 stage was a phenomenal 2.4 which no other team came close to matching.

Our betting prediction:
Jos Buttler Top England Batsman
11/5

Another dramatic England v New Zealand clash to come?

There will be memories of that tremendous 2019 Cricket World Cup Final between England and New Zealand.

England dramatically won the day via a super over to claim the title.

This will be the first meeting in the T20 format between the two nations since 2019 when England won the match after a one-over eliminator.

England have won 13 of the previous 21 T20 matches against New Zealand (D1 L7 1 no-result).

The loss of power-hitting opener Jason Roy is huge for England.

He picked up an injury against South Africa. James Vince replaces him in the squad.

Jos Buttler is the top-scoring player in the tournament having smashed 240 runs in his five innings.

Butler is a quote of 4/1 to be the Top Batsman on Wednesday* (odds recorded 18:54 GMT on 8th November 2021).

 

New Zealand Preview – Black Caps a threat

New Zealand did very well in a tough group to make it through to the semi-finals and they also posed a controlled threat.

It was a second-place finish for the Kiwis behind surprise group winners Pakistan.

Just like England, New Zealand qualified with a W4 L1 record from their five round-robin matches.

The one loss that New Zealand suffered was in their tournament opener when Pakistan beat them by five wickets.

Revival of form

The big revival for the Black Caps came at the end of October when they hammered India by 8 wickets.

They were untroubled in their other three matches, comfortably getting past Namibia, Scotland and Afghanistan.

In the match outright there is a quote of 6/4 on New Zealand to take the win* (odds recorded 18:54 GMT on 8th November 2021).

New Zealand finished the Super 12 stage with a net run rate of 1.16.

That was well below that of England’s return and indeed, both Pakistan and India’s in the group.

New Zealand have their threats of course, notably with Martin Guptill and Kane Williamson with the bat.

The top performers for them with the ball in hand have been Ish Sodhi and Trent Boult.

It’s just steady, consistent form from New Zealand that they bring to the table, as opposed to the big flashy power of England.

They won’t be picked apart too easily.

New Zealand are in their third T20 World Cup semi-final appearance, not having been beyond this stage before.

 

England vs New Zealand Betting Advice

England just look to have the stronger all-round game and do pose an extra threat in the batting department.

The loss of Roy is a tough one for England, but they do potentially have the depth to cope.

It does put a little more pressure on the other batsmen of course. Backing Jos Buttler at 11/5 to be England’s Top Batsmen is the first option* (odds recorded 18:54 GMT on 8th November 2021).
