New Zealand vs Pakistan betting tips & odds
New Zealand to win {ODDS:1034520451:1.83}
New Zealand have continued their brilliant form in big tournaments, reaching the semi-finals for the fifth World Cup in a row across 50 and 20-over cricket.
They qualified without much issue, only losing to England in their four completed matches to finish top of Group 1.
Pakistan, meanwhile, needed a shock win for Netherlands over South Africa to get out of the Super 12, and lost to both India and Zimbabwe.
Glenn Phillips to score over 20.5 runs {ODDS:1034541134:1.83}
Phillips underlined his status as one of the most destructive batters in world cricket with 195 runs in four innings in the Super 12, including a century against Sri Lanka and 62 against England.
This looks like an achievable runs line for such an in-form player.
Shan Masood to be Pakistan’s top batsman {ODDS:1034541115:5.50}
Masood ended the Super 12 as Pakistan’s top run-scorer, with openers Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan failing to impress.
At this price, he’s worth backing to continue his good form in the semi-final.
Mitchell Santner to be New Zealand’s top bowler {ODDS:1034541056:4.50}
Santner took eight wickets in the Super 12, making him New Zealand’s top wicket-taker at this point in the tournament.
The left-arm spinner took two and three-wicket hauls in their two games at the SCG, so clearly likes playing at this ground.
