The Kiwis have established their name as the team who often falls flat in the penultimate stage of the World Cup. New Zealand has never won the World Cup but the Kiwis have come close to winning the prestigious trophy.

They have reached the semifinals on 7 occasions and even made it to the final last time, only to lose out to the current World Champions, Australia.

The Kiwis will surely miss their legendary players in the form of Brendon McCullum and Ross Taylor, but the current side does possess some genuine world beaters. An adequate balance for firepower and class, New Zealand are the team to watch out for! They've long been termed as dark horses but this time they might turn out to be legit favourites to lift the prestigious trophy

Kane Williamson, New Zealand's skipper is the key to this vibrant kiwi side and his form will surely dictate New Zealand's progress on the course of the biggest cricket tournament of the world.
