The developments we would react to before the first ball.
If Daryl Mitchell is left out
We would trim New Zealand by around five points, turning this into a slight lean.
If India win the toss
On a pitch where the toss matters, that alone moves a couple of points India's way.
If rain shortens the match
Fewer overs mean more randomness, which helps the underdog.
