India sought redemption against New Zealand, emerging victorious by a margin of 70 runs in the initial semifinal of the ongoing ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 held at the iconic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on November 15. It was New Zealand who had destroyed India’s dream for their third title in the prestigious event in 2019. They defeated India by 18 runs in the knockout encounter in Manchester four years ago.
In the magnificent clash, India’s captain, Rohit Sharma, won the toss and opted to bat first. India displayed yet another dominant performance, defeating the Black Caps by 70 runs and securing a position in the final of the ICC Men’s ODI World Cup. The final, set for November 19, will witness India competing against either South Africa or Australia at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Taking the batting initiative, India set a total of 397/4 in 50 overs, limiting New Zealand to 327 in 48.5 overs. Cricket fans across the world created memes on India vs New Zealand after India’s victory against the Kiwis.
