ABU DHABI (Reuters) - New Zealand opener Daryl Mitchell said they needed generous help from Lady Luck to prevail against England in the semi-final of the Twenty20 World Cup on Wednesday.

Chasing a tricky 167 on a track where England's star-studded lineup struggled to fire, New Zealand had their own difficulties with the bat that left them needing 57 runs from the last four overs.
