New Zealand, led by Kane Williamson, has qualified for the final of the 2021 cricket world cup by beating england by five wickets in the semi-finals.

Chasing 150 runs in a t20 match on Abu Dhabi soil is the hardest part.

Australia is the only team in the top 8 in the ICC rankings at this ground to have won by chasing 158 runs.

Earlier, the england team came back with the pride of never having seen a semi-final in ICC ODI and t20 world cup history since 1983.


In the ODI series in 1987, 1992, and 2019, as well as in the 2010 and 2016 t20 World Cups, when england qualified for the semi-finals, they never failed to reach the final.

It was in this context that the new zealand team had to score 167 runs in 20 overs to beat england on Abu Dhabi soil and enter the final.


That, the 17th over of the game. Until then the new zealand team had faced 96 balls and scored 110 runs. 


The UK has a 70% chance of success, according to a televised poll. The pressure on the new zealand team continued to mount.


In the 17th over alone, new zealand scored 23 runs. It switched the game as a whole.

Thirty-four runs were scored in three overs. Rashid took the wicket of neesham in the final ball of the 18th over. 


This time the match between england and new zealand did not last until the last ball of the last over and did not go to the Super Over.


Daryl Mitchell won the man of the match award, scoring 72 off 47 balls from the field until the end of the game.


The new zealand team, led by Kane Williamson, has qualified for the final of three ICC series in three years.


New Zealand lost the trophy in the 2019 ODI world cup final due to controversial ICC rules. Whether new zealand will win the 2021 t20 world cup will be known next sunday night.


Earlier in the day, australia and pakistan will meet in another semi-final on thursday to decide who will face New Zealand.
