Would it be fair to label New Zealand as the dark horse team at the World Cup? I know they are co-hosting the tournament but they are ranked 6th.

They are my favourites to win.
Not sure if they are a dark horse as they are playing a very good brand of cricket, not just in 50 overs.
I have always had a soft spot for the Kiwis who, in the past particularly in Tests, won little but also lost little by great fight and determination.
They are playing a great brand of Cricket and McCullum has become more consistent, Williamson is in form along with Taylor, Ronchi and Anderson so Hesson would be chuffed!
Not sure what happened to Neesham but their squad looks a good one.
Home support has been excellent of late, by all accounts, and that bodes well for the WC!
Did question Elliot's inclusion in this series but he has proven to be worthy.
Obviously I would love to see England win but our bowling simply does not seem penetrative enough.
Let us hope Finn continues improving!

Agree wholeheartedly with regards to the bowling. This is a serious problem, especially the front line seamers. It looks as though our most economical bowler (Tredwell) is going to be left out in favour of Woakes.
