With confidence running high through their veins, New Zealand and England will take on each other in a pulsating high-octane clash here on Wednesday.
Both the Kiwis and the Poms are flying high after winning their last few matches with gumption. England lost their opener against West Indies, thanks to Chris Gayle's 47-ball 100. But, the 2010 champions took it on their chin to win the next three, especially the second match against South Africa when they chased a World T20 record of 230.
On, the other hand, New Zealand have been the team of the tournament, winning all of their four matches so far.
The writing was on the wall for the Kiwis as they entered the tournament as the dark horses and lived up to the tag, surprising everyone with their flamboyant performances.
The Black Caps shook everyone when they eased past tournament favourites and hosts India in the opener, winning the match by 47 runs. They followed it with another victory against their fierce-rivals Australia in the second group match.
Then Kiwis knocked Pakistan out of the tournament to secure a semifinal berth.
Despite securing a passage to the last-4, New Zealand did not take anything granted when they faced Bangladesh in the last match and also won that game without much fuss.
Kiwis' biggest strength in this tournament has been their flexibility. New Zealand are always known for their strength in pace department, but this time they have adapted cleverly to the spinning tracks in India.
New Zealand came into the tournament with three spinners — Mitchell Santner, Ish Sodhi and Nathan McCullum.
McCullum is the only one among the three, who wasn't a regular in the playing eleven. After taking two wickets against India in the opener, he was rested for the next two games. But, he played the final match against Bangladesh and got a wicket in that game.
However, the other two Santner and Sodhi have been a mainstay in the starting line-up.
Santner has nine wickets to his name, including a 4/11 against India in the opener.
Sodhi has also been equally impressive, scalping eight wickets in the four matches Kiwis have played so far.
As a result of their spinners' dominance, Kiwis star pacers Tim Southee and Trent Boult were unable to get any game time in the middle. Infact both have not featured for New Zealand even once in this tournament.
On the other hand, England have heavily relied upon their seamers irrespective of the conditions in India.
The Poms have been heavily relying on liam Plunkett, Chris Jordan and David Willey. Jordan and Willey have played in all four matches, while Plunkett replaced Reece Topley for the last two matches against Afghanistan and Sri lanka. Between them they have 13 wickets so far in the tournament.
But, that doesn't mean they have ignored the spinners completely. The Europeans have equally used Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid so far in the tournament. Ali and Rashid has four wickets a piece to their names.
If an extra spinner is required they could also turn to Joe Root, who could be a handy alternative.
As far as the team news is concerned, both sides are expected to retain the core of their side. With a well balanced team in all the departments, England are not expected to chop and change the side that has been winning the last three matches. In batting Joe Root and Jos Buttler are the ones New Zealand players need to watch out for.
On the other hand, scoring runs has been an issue for New Zealand. Only once in this tournament, they have scored more than 150 (against Pakistan Kiwis scored 180).
Despite the lack of runs, they are expected to retain the same team and hope the likes of Martin Guptill, Kane Williamson and Corey Anderson will step up the mark.
It's the bowling where the changes could be made as anyone of Southee or Bolt could make their tournament debut as Nathan McCullum, who started against Bangladesh, could be back in the bench.
