ICC Cricket World Cup 2019

The weather forecast doesn't look great for the Australia-England semi-final, but at least at this stage there is a reserve day available.

1st semi final today. When India meet New Zealand at Old Trafford

New Zealand won the toss and decided to bat.
Fergerson is back in the New Zealand team.

This is the 6th match of the tournament to be played at Old Trafford. The previous 5 have all been won by the side batting first, but regardless of that India are the strong favourites today, at 1/3 with most bookmakers.

Have India and Australia met in the final before?

2003. Australia bulldozed India winning by over 100 runs.

Back to today and New Zealand are 83/2 at the halfway mark of their innings.

It's like watching a test match. New Zealand don't seem to have any urgency to score quick runs, they just want to keep wickets in hand.

Currently 126-2 off 34 overs. Predicted 250 ish

The match continues today into the reserve day.
New Zealand on 211-5 off 46.1 overs

India chasing 240 to win. First wicket down in second over. India 4 for 1.
