Even if NZ had made the semi's they wouldn't had gone any further... too shite in the batting, can't form decent partnerships that would give us really good totals.
we'd be a puncher's chance. Couple of the top order fire, and it's on like kong ... lon gshots, but starters. Particularly at home.

We would have to rely on the other team not playing that well... but yeah, anything can happen when it comes to the knockout stuff, really disappointing that we've played so poorly at home.

so we're done.
Our NRR has killed any small chance we had burgling a qualification spot. Down to a shootout between England and India for the fourth slot; both with similar NRR, but India has SA, and England has Bangladesh.
Barring washouts and assuming both win, it's strong advantage England right now. Goes to show - they got written off too early.
That said, SA vs WI looks the more interesting semi than the one with Australia.
Roll on the knockouts, can't wait!

@nzzp WI aren't guaranteed to be in the semis. They will be cheering for SA to beat India. Otherwise WI are gone too. Their loss to Pakistan could prove fatal.
true.
Was looking at it from our perspective, so ignored them as we couldn't catch them. Fair poitn.

Perhaps a TSF collective application, with a CV outlining our track record of brilliantly conflicting advice from our respective couches? WHITE FERNS Head Coach (flexible location)

I’ve watched a few of the games and highlights of a few others, some quality cricket.
But surely this is one of the longest cricket tournament’s ever?
