New Zealand's remaining matches will be interesting. They needed that South Africa match to cement form in this competition. So who next for the Blackcaps?
23/6 Versus West Indies at Manchester - This will be a difficult game to pick as the Windies could turn up to play with out warning. A win nonetheless. 2 points.
26/6 Versus Pakistan at Birmingham. - Like the Windies Pakistan could turn up to play. Pakistan always seemed to be a nemesis team for the Blackcaps. Nonetheless 2 points.
30/6 Versus Australia at London - Probably the biggest test for our boys in the competition. I'm not picking a winner. Suffice to say if the first two games here (WI/Pak) are wins for us the final two games are a time to tinker with the team (Blundell and Southee in, Henry and Munro both out) as we finish top of pool play.
3/7 Versus England at Chester Le Street - England are like Australia as I see it. Same thoughts too.
