New Zealand will meet Pakistan in what's a must-win game for Sarfaraz's Ahmed's men. In all likelihood, Pakistan will need to win all of their remaining ICC World Cup 2019 games and hope the other results go their way, if they are to have any chance of reaching the semi finals of the tournament. New Zealand, on the other hand, sit pretty near the top of the table, just one point behind Australia who comprehensively beat England at Lord's on Tuesday. New Zealand are one of two unbeaten sides in the cricket World Cup so far — India being the other one — but they will be cautious going into their game against the mercurial Pakistan team, who enter the game buoyed by the victory against South Africa in their previous outing. Rain delayed the start of the New Zealand vs Pakistan game, and one hopes weather doesn't come in the way of what promises to be a cracking World Cup cricket match. New Zealand have won the toss and have elected to bat first against Pakistan.
The New Zealand vs Pakistan encounter is the seventh match for both teams and the 33rd match of the tournament overall. We are approaching the end of the league stage, and Australia became the first team to seal a spot in the semi finals after their victory against England on Tuesday. New Zealand, England, and India remain in control of their destiny, as far as grabbing the other three spots are concerned, but Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Pakistan are all still in with a chance, if they win their remaining games and the other results go their way.
West Indies and South Africa might still have a mathematical chance, but they are all but out of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 and the last-placed Afghanistan have no chance of reaching the semi finals any more.
