New Zealand secured top spot in Group 1 winning 4 from 4, including defending a low total in their opening match against host and favorites India. New Zealand have a very balanced side with numerous bowling options and a powerful batting line up. India secured second spot with a hard fought victory over Australia. India’s 1 run win against Bangladesh seems to have got the team and tournament back on track and with the likes of Kholi and Dhoni they have a real chance of winning the tournament.
Group 2

West Indies had a suprise loss to Afghanistan in their final match, never the less they still qualify top of the group and with the spin attack of Bandree and Benn, coupled with the powerful batting of Gayle are deserved group winners.

Betting: Top Batsman in the ICC World T20
Chris Gayle smashed a scintillating 100 not out in his opening match against England. AB de Villiers also looks in good form and scored a rapid 64 against Afghanistan. Australian Captain Steven Smith and David Warner are two to look out for as well as India’s fearsome Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan and Virat Kohli and could go the distance for their home crowd.
