 ABU DHABI - New Zealand beat Afghanistan by eight wickets to reach the Twenty20 World Cup semi-finals and eliminate pre-tournament favourites India on Sunday.

   The Kiwis joined Pakistan as the two teams in the final four from Group 2, leaving India's final match against Namibia on Monday a dead rubber.

England and Australia made the semi-finals from the other group.BSS/AFP
