The serenity and resilience of being New Zealand

They've now reached the final for two World Cups in a row, but Kane Williamson's men still retain an inner core of peace ahead of the biggest game of their careers

12-Jul-2019•Nagraj Gollapudi at Lord's

When Boult made hay in Old Trafford's gloom

When the ball didn't swing, he leapt like superman to pluck catches, when it did, he prised out the world's best

10-Jul-2019•Andrew Fidel Fernando at Old Trafford

'Let's go one better than 2015' - Elliott

Elation and disappointment: the reactions to New Zealand's 18-run win over India in the World Cup semi-final at Old Trafford

10-Jul-2019•ESPNcricinfo staff

The first four overs, and a semi-final we didn't think we'd have

New Zealand got to 2 for 1 after four overs, while India had 5 for 3; it wasn't the prediction at all

10-Jul-2019•Jarrod Kimber at Old Trafford

India v New Zealand semi-final pushed to reserve day - who stands to benefit?

Varun Shetty checks with Sambit Bal and Andrew Fidel Fernando on the game situation, and which way it's likely to go, weather permitting

09-Jul-2019•ESPNcricinfo staff

It's been the World Cup of the yorker, and we love it

The defining delivery of the tournament has had some superb purveyors this year, who have used it to deadly effect

09-Jul-2019•Andrew Fidel Fernando

Can Taylor, Guptill and Latham put behind their modest World Cup so far?

None of the three batsmen have scored even 60% of the runs they would generally do, leaving Williamson to shoulder most of the responsibility

08-Jul-2019•Andrew Fidel Fernando in Manchester

Tactics Board: Where the India v New Zealand semi-final could be won and lost

Rohit Sharma v Trent Boult, the Indian spin options and New Zealand's express pace - what will be the game-changer?

08-Jul-2019•Srinath Sripath and Gaurav Sundararaman

The Monga-Kimber World Cup 2019 XI is here (already)

Three games to go, but these two already have an XI that could easily tackle slow pitches, highways, death overs, D/L, and a Space Jam alien team

08-Jul-2019•Sidharth Monga and Jarrod Kimber

The bat-first advantage at this World Cup

Of the last 20 games played in the tournament, 16 have been won by the team batting first and that trend might well continue in the semi-finals and final

08-Jul-2019•S Rajesh

Kane Williamson's is the hand that steadies New Zealand's ship

On paper he's in at No. 3, but he often pretty much ends up opening - and sticks around for ages, come juicy pitches or skilled bowling

08-Jul-2019•Alagappan Muthu

Eternal scrappers New Zealand happy to fly under the radar

Some have asked if they should be in the semi-finals at all. Others have written them off. New Zealand are happy to be in this position, with all the expectation on their opponents

07-Jul-2019•Melinda Farrell at Old Trafford

Bairstow beats a shadow as Dhoni becomes one

ESPNcricinfo's reporters pick the moments they remember from an action-packed Week 5 at the World Cup

05-Jul-2019•ESPNcricinfo staff

Jonny Bairstow - Jason Roy union moves into very special territory

England have come a long way since the debacle of 2015, and it seems they're not done yet

03-Jul-2019•George Dobell in Durham

New Zealand's No. 1 (and No. 2) problem

Between them, New Zealand's openers have scored only 299 runs in 16 innings. It is a problem that doesn't seem to be going away

03-Jul-2019•Sidharth Monga at Chester-le-Street

A team fashioned in Williamson's spirit - not McCullum's image

This time there's no charm offensive - the New Zealand team are just are who they are. And there's no one cuddlier at the World Cup.

02-Jul-2019•Andrew Fidel Fernando in Chester-le-Street

Do right-left pairs at the crease work? It's complicated

In theory it's good strategy, especially when spinners are on, but a look at the recent Australia-New Zealand game says there's more to it than meets the eye

02-Jul-2019•Jarrod Kimber

Here's a massively premature review of the 2019 World Cup

Because, you know, why not

01-Jul-2019•Andrew Fidel Fernando

Starc must blast his way past the little fort Williamson will build

The Australia paceman has 19 wickets so far, and the New Zealand captain 414 runs - they are the most important cogs in their teams' wheels

28-Jun-2019•Jarrod Kimber at Lord's

How extreme pace is making a mark at this World Cup

The likes of Ferguson, Wood, Archer and Starc are not exactly creating mayhem, but they are influencing games massively nevertheless by bowling over 145kph
