Lying in wait will be the winner of Thursday's second semi-final in Sydney between India, defending the title they won in 2011, and Australia, who lifted the three preceding World Cups.
New Zealand have lost all six of their previous World Cup semi-finals, with South Africa falling at the same hurdle on three occasions.
