I've just noticed something really important. The super 8 phase is divided not into 3 sets of 4 games, as you'd expect, but 4 sets of 3 games. This means Set 5 does not include the Australia v Bangladesh game (and equally, that you have to have Set 6 in before it starts!)

Have gone for the following:
Pant, Pooran
Brook, Bairstow, Stubbs
Russell C, Hardik, Jacks
Bumrah, Shamsi, Rashid Khan

New Zealand (Playing XI): Finn Allen, Devon Conway(w), Rachin Ravindra, Kane Williamson(c), Daryl Mitchell, Glenn Phillips, Mitchell Santner, Ish Sodhi, Tim Southee, Lockie Ferguson, Trent Boult

Papua New Guinea (Playing XI): Tony Ura, Assad Vala(c), Charles Amini, Sese Bau, Hiri Hiri, Chad Soper, Kiplin Doriga(w), Norman Vanua, Alei Nao, Kabua Morea, Semo Kamea

Match delayed due to rain (New Zealand opt to bowl)

Captained Ferguson for this set and he hasn't given up a run in his first three overs

Make that a perfect four!

Ferguson 4 overs, 4 maidens, 0 runs, 3 wickets

Well played, so the play was 3 NZ bowlers in Ferguson, Boult and Southee.

Imagine if someone was crazy enough to do that!

The global leader has also cracked 2,000 points for the round and still has Dre Russ to come. It was the round for stacking bowlers and playing the wicket wizard!
