NZ are a very good team, looked deep in the shit but 7th wicket gave them a great score and now their bowlers are well on top. Be an interesting challenge for England
 
NZ and SA both look very well organised, strong, disciplined and flexible to me, probable finalists?

Late edit - a great recovery (typing at 17 overs) by West Indies

I think it's ideal for us to have a really tough game today and make sure we don't get too carried away before the SFs. I don't know who I'd rather play out of the other group. I think India will be a real challenge for us if they make it and actually style wise South Africa would be a better game for us overall. Windies you never know - they have such power they can chase anything but I'd back us.

I’d have South Africa as slight favourites to win the whole thing at the moment.

Think we’re probably the 4th best team in the tournament and we’ll likely lose in the semis, whoever we get.

It’s T20 though and all it takes is one innings to make predictions look silly.

Yeah I'd agree. I think we're the best on our side of the Super 8s, but I'd have South Africa, India and the Windies ahead of us. Like you say T20 is unpredictable, Windies looked in trouble against us before some huge hitting down the order. South Africa had their scare against Afghanistan. So it's wide open still. If Buttler can find some form, which based on historic slumps is unlikely sadly, it does make us a much bigger threat.
