It's the same 4 as 2015 too. ODI Cricket doesn't really change much it seems.England are truly dismal
Except for India won't play Australia unlike 2015..

It is closest to Test in terms of quality. So difficult to do upset .

Gonna be the same Team (Aus vs Nz) final from 2015 as well. Result should be the same as well with Australia lifting The World Cup for 6th time.

I think NZ have one chance against India and it's with the toss. Batting first has been a huge advantage in Mumbai, only the freakish Maxwell knock prevented all teams batting first winning (and winning comfortably too). If India bat first then it's hard to see how NZ can win.

If we bowl first against India and get early wickets especially the wickets of Rohit and Kohli then were are in with a shot, easier said than done though.
A lot depends on those two, if at least one of them doesn't go on to get a big score India's batting is vulnerable, there will be a lot of pressure on them.
Obviously India will start favourites and rightly so. They've comfortably been the best team in the tournament.
But NZ are more than capable of winning this. It's vital they get off to a good start in the match. If India got on top early on, with the crowd behind them, they can steamroll any team.
But the longer NZ are in the game, the more I would fancy them.

Boult in Wankhede is bad news. Especially 2nd innings.

If we bat second, we'll collapse under the lights like every team has at the wankhede. Might still lose batting first but don't see us chasing anything >200. This is a bad match up and a lot depends on the toss.

If this is a bad match up , then other match ups are even worse. NZ are clearly weakest of the 4.

Not for us. They have come the closest to beating us this WC.

What does Tests and T20s have to do with an ODI WC? Or what happens 10 20 years ago. This NZ team has worst match against us in Wankhede and a lot of our players have failed against their players.
I have long accepted that this Indian team is full of chokers. Haven't won any ICC trophy in 10 years despite all the resources in the world and regularly qualifying for knockouts. Even Pak has a champions trophy. And then they would say you can't judge us on a single game.
