What a day it was where first batting NZ was too slow it seems as they were just playing for singles rather than looking aggressive and score some runs which was lacking from them today. Now first semi finals itself is rain effected and tomorrow we will see the second innings of the match.

Manchester Stadium in rain 
Is it ?
Is it ?Really LOL!!!
I just have seen that the match is suspended due to rain and the match will resume on 10th July. The NZ score is 211/5 in 46.1 overs. The score is not good as in a semi-final. If the score will go higher 300 more then we will can see a fighting match. But in this lower score ( suspecting 240-250 runs) is very to India and India will win the match easily I think. Let's pray for the next day that rain will not come again.

Again the rain is playing with us/teams. The first Semifinal also affected by rain which is very disgusting really. People and the supporters have been waiting to see the semi-final match but THE GOD has proved again The GOD is the only one almighty. anyway if rain continuously increasing like previous then what will? Have any reserved day for Semi finals?
India vs England final
India started really well and the disappointing tournament of Martil Guptil continues as he lost his wicket after facing more than 2 tentative minutes in the crease, it all depends upon how Williamson plays today and he is the trump card to know how much New Zealand is going to post today and can trouble the Indian top order. If they could not post a good total India will chase them easily as they have youth and experience in their key players.
Considering the pitch it's not a bad performance from New Zealand. Ross Taylor did a good job sticking to the wicket. Now everything lies on how Kiwis could bowl and field. India has been consistent on both batting and bowling. IMO This is going to be a competitive match till the last overs.
As rain has stopped the play, it's highly likely that DL method be introduced which would significantly reduce the target for India and give a clear advantage to them. They'll be able to win scoring less than what New Zealand did. So, they don't really have to worry about the pitch.
If it's reduce to 20 overs match target will be 148, and if it's reduce to 25 overs match target will be 172. It won't be easy at all if that much overs reduce.
Better they don't come to play today and resume tomorrow so match will continue from where it's stopped.

Small correction, Don't know you remember or not but the Pakistani team played 5 ODI and 1 T20 against the English team in England, just before the World cup. They were literally camping there.
Oh... my bad... Yes... Pakistan was there in England since April 2019. Somehow forgot that. And if I am not wrong, Sri Lanka also played a few matches in Ireland and Scotland before the world cup. That means that India was the only South Asian nation that didn't had sufficient preparation. So it looks like failing to acclimatize was not one of the reasons.
The match results can be predicted now, India wins (IND vs NZ) and Australia wins (AUS vs ENG) in semis.
Final INDIA vs AUSTRALIA - Champion INDIA!
Just hope ENG and NZ will do some magic play.
I see England in the finals and nothing is clear cut as England has a better team than Australia and it all depends upon how Indian top order can bat against the New Zealand bowlers and if the bowlers can dominate and take wickets and then we might see England and New Zealand in the finals and that is what i am expecting, i will go for England to win the match against Australia and New Zealand to come out on top against a weak middle order of India. Final INDIA vs AUSTRALIA - Champion INDIA!
Just hope ENG and NZ will do some magic play.

This is why I said before the start of the tournament that teams from South Asia should arrive in England at least two weeks prior to the start, and get themselves acclimatized to the conditions. Bangladesh was the only Asian team which did that, and the impact was evident from the first round of matches. That said, both India and Pakistan fought well after the initial setbacks.

Looks like the New Zealand vs India semi-final is going to be an one sided affair. The former have been playing horribly for the past 3-4 matches and I don't think that they have much of a chance against a strong Indian lineup. On the other hand, the other semi-final will be a closely fought one. Both Australia and England have almost equal chances of winning.
In this world cup I have seen so much rise and fall we know India is good team to play, Zealand will also play good so we can say India will play well, so let’s see what happen, according me match wittedness and England will also show good performance, this world cup went interesting but I felt bad when Pakistan did not reach semi final.Pakistan did not reached in semi final just because of 1 match against West Indies, they all out 105 against West Indies, and after that they were never recovered from that negative net run rates.

Marcus Stoinis looks doubtful for the semi finals, due to the strain on left side. In case he is unable to play, then Mitchell Marsh will take his place. I think Stoinis will be undergoing fitness test today and in case he fails, then he'll be flying back to Australia. So even before a single ball has been bowled, it is advantage for England. After Khawaja, now Stoinis is going to miss the crucial match.
This will be bad:
It would be a disaster for cricket fans if it happens, even we miss single over due to rain and the last thing I want to see DLS in last 3 fixtures.
I'm interested to see if Steve Smith can get some runs as he has been poor so far in this tournament so maybe that will all change in the semi-final and he goes on to make a century and help Australia to victory. Warner has been in top form and is the best Australian batsman of the tournament so far, he hasn't missed a trick since coming back into the team. He looks set to have a good Ashes series coming up soon.
I think, its because management was playing ping-pong with his number. Sometimes at 4, and a couple of times at number 3. I know he's not performing according to his reputation, but 3rd spot belongs to him. Usman Khwaja exclusion could turn into a blessing in disguise.
Still, have some doubt on Stonis's injury. And I am sure Alex Carey is very much capable of batting at number 5. Good news is wade can join the squad, who is in excellent form right now, not sure about Junior Marsh.

India has been playing much better than New Zealand but still we can't predict about the result as New Zealand always is an unpredictable team. The world cup stats are slightly in favor for New Zealand. Indian team also has not been invincible in this tournament. They lose to England before wining over a weak team of Sri Lanka.
That may be true. But there is no denying that the team batting first so far had a big advantage in this tournament. If India bats first, then they'll be able to score more than 300-320 and restrict NZ to less than 250. However, things may get unpredictable in case NZ wins the toss and elects to bat first. They can put India under a lot of pressure in case they manage to score above 300.
