In 2019, Bangladesh could have defeated NZ in a low scoring thriller had it not been a missed run out chance by Mushfiqur Rahim. That game was in England, this is in Chennai. Expect Bangladesh’s spinners to come to the party.

If the Bangladesh game doesn’t scare the Kiwis, the Afghanistan game definitely will. If it is the usual Chennai pitch, Rashid-Mujeeb-Nabi-Noor can be a handful.

NZ vs Aus 2023 Preview
Should be a cracker of a contest. This race, at the moment, is too close to call. I reckon one of these two will get into the semis, but not both. This game could well be a decider.one

One of cricket’s underrated rivalries. The scars of 2015 are still fresh for the Proteas. I’m giving South Africa a slight advantage due to incoming form, but on the day, it could be anyone’s game.
