Akash Chopra said that New Zealand are capable of winning even in the absence of their main players. New Zealand has won all four matches and has almost secured a berth in the semi-finals. The fact that even Kane Williamson’s absence hasn’t affected them is a testament to how good a team they have. They have found a way to win.

They also proved in the match against Afghanistan how they can bounce back from setbacks. A great example of that was the fact that they found a good score in the middle order collapse and on a difficult pitch in Chennai. Akash Chopra said that Tom Latham, Glenn Phillips, Will Young, Rachin Ravindra and Devon Conway are all taking the team forward without knowing Williamson’s absence. In bowling, Trent Boult, Matt Henry and Lockie Ferguson are all in good form. That’s why this time India and New Zealand will meet in the World Cup final, Akash Chopra said.
