England need to win by more than 20 runs or chase the target in 17 overs to reach final.
 
New Zealand win the toss and bowl.

Is it just me or this T20 Tri series have been quite boring to follow. I dont get why didn’t organiser opted for ODI Tri series instead considering Worldcup is next year and could’ve been used for preparation.
 
Should be an easy win from here. At least qualification is guaranteed for New Zealand.
 
Morgan give up too early by trying out malan in last six overs.
when Tom Curran has 3 overs left.
 
Neither team deserved to play the Final.

Aussies should play Final amongst themselves[A team and B team] it would be a thriller
 
Australia have been the dominate team in this tri series. England and NZ have been disappointing. A ODI tri series would have been better .
 
Draft was done before his ashes performances . So it was a weird decision to not retain him.

England is playing a ODI series and a T20I series against New Zealand during the PSL i.e why the didn't retain him and it's same reason bcz of which Munro had to pull out of PSL.

He was only in the LO squad because Stokes is out of the team. Now Stokes is back, he also most certainly won't play. So he could have played a part in PSL.

Munro was a regular in NZ LO team before PSL draft and England vs NZ schedule was available to KK think tank. So they would have known about his availability before the draft.
 
Good win for England but unfortunately NZ qualify. So Australia have won all of their games (1 in NZ) (3 in Aus) whereas NZ have only won 1 game. But if NZ win the final, they will win the tournament! Australia will feel hard done by if they lose the final, but such is life!
