If Rohit Sharma and boys win the match against New Zealand today, they will become the first team to be the finalist of this year”s World Cup.

When the World cup matches kicked-off on October 5 last month, no one might have thought to witness the repeat of last year”s knockout. No Indian fans could ever forget the nights of July 10,2019, the heartbreaking return of MS Dhoni from his international games. Once again, the fate has given a chance for the Men in Blue to payback. India emerged into the semi-finals with a total of nine wins while the Black Caps shuddered four times before India, Australia, South Africa and Pakistan. They sealed the semi-final berth not because of their ruthless skills but mostly because the other teams like Pakistan and England underperformed in the series.

But both the team are hard hit by injuries equally. Hardik Pandya was ruled out in India while Matt Henry was ruled out in New Zealand. Meanwhile, the batting forms of both the team are incredible. Rachin Ravindra, Kane Williamson, Daryl Mitchell and Devon Conway can score in bulks and will be a threatening wave to the Indian bowling line-up. India had witnessed so many outstanding players in the history of cricket. But this one under Rohit Sharma carries a spectacular mischievous aura. They have bowled out all the opposition teams in all the games throughout the tournament. New Zealand will truly need a magic spell in the match today to stop the invincible from reaching the finals.
