World Cup 2019: New Zealand’s ‘Fiddly’, in every case in front of a strong team India, see statistics
Team India captain Virat Kohli is in his finest form. Apart from this, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, Mahendra Singh Dhoni are ready to translate any unnecessarily into happening.
The first semi-final match in World Cup cricket has been played. India has a match against the New Zealand team that has not been able to match in the World Cup because the league match was washed in the rain. But now in the semi-finals, both teams are going to be very strong. The New Zealand team knows that the inspiration of Team India is on the strength of these days.
Team India opener Rohit Sharma is in excellent form. He has recorded 5 centuries in record making a hundred in the last match against Sri Lanka, KL Rahul has also conceded that he can underestimate the Kiwi team.

Team India’s bowling is strong
The batting of Team India is fantastic, the bowling brigade has also bowled every team. Bumrahah’s balls are incomplete for batsmen, and Mohammed Shami, Hardik, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s fastballs have repeatedly dodged the opposition team. Chahal and Kuldeep’s spinners will not be able to leave the core of New Zealand’s batsmen.
Statistics also say that this time around, Team India itself is huge. India has won 7 matches in this World Cup, while the New Zealand team has won just 5 matches. The New Zealand team has suffered consistently in the last 3 matches. Whereas Team India has lost only 1 match in England this match.
New Zealand made just two centuries
New Zealand has so far scored just two centuries, both of whom have been killed by captain Ken Williamson. While Team India has scored 7 centuries, out of which, only 5 centuries have been hit by Rohit Sharma alone.
India’s 2295 runs, New Zealand’s 1674 runs
India has scored 2295 runs in this World Cup, while the New Zealand team has scored 1674 runs. From India, this tournament has 31 sixes and 196 boundaries, thus, 970 runs have come from the boundary only. At the same time, the New Zealand team scored 20 sixes and 143 boundaries and a total of 692 runs were bound by the boundary. That is if the data is seen then Team India is ahead of New Zealand.
Coincidence
What a strange coincidence. 11 years ago, in the semi-finals of the Under-19 World Cup in 2008, New Zealand and India were confronted. Even then Team India U-19 captain Virat Kohli was the captain of the New Zealand team and this was Ken Williamson. The ground was also of Manchester.
Even then Virat Brigade forced Ken Williamson’s team to kneel and won a spectacular victory. 11 years later, exactly the same match, they are the same captain. It is believed that on Tuesday, history is going to repeat itself.
