Here is a look at how New Zealand overcame India, as well as poor weather conditions, to book their spot in the final:

England dominated Australia in the other semi-final:

When these teams met earlier in the tournament, England cruised to a massive 119-run win. Jonny Bairstow finished with a century, and the hosts' bowling feasted on the Black Caps, who were all-out after 45 overs.

Those same bowlers impressed against the Baggy Greens as well. Early wickets of David Warner and Aaron Finch―neither scored double-digit runs―put Australia on the back foot, and they never recovered.

Depth is the key for England, who have a large group of batsmen who can all put up big numbers on any given day. Bairstow, Joe Root, Jason Roy, Ben Stokes and Eoin Morgan are all ranked among the top 20 run-scorers in the tournament.

The Blacks Caps only have two men in the top 20: Kane Williamson and Ross Taylor.

In the loss to England, Williamson scored just 27 runs, but he brings so much more to the table. Cricket writer Saj Sadiq had high praise for the captain after the win over India:

He will have to be at his best against England, who have the bowling talent to go along with their explosive batting. Jofra Archer and Mark Wood have been in exceptional form and should provide a stiff counterpart to New Zealand duo Lockie Ferguson and Trent Boult.
