The highly anticipated ICC World Cup 2023 semi-final showdown between India and New Zealand was truly a spectacle at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium.
Rohit Sharma won the toss and opted to bat in the semi-final. Virat Kohli, who got out at 117 off 113 balls, has now surpassed Sachin Tendulkar’s record for the most runs in a single World Cup, going beyond Tendulkar’s 673 runs from the 2003 World Cup. The 35-year-old Kohli also clinched his century by scoring a two off fast bowler Lockie Ferguson. He faced 106 balls, hitting eight fours and a six, breaking the record of 49 ODI hundreds that he had shared with Sachin Tendulkar.
In response, New Zealand put up a spirited fight despite losing both their openers early on to the wicket-hungry Mohammed Shami. Kiwi skipper Kane Williamson, along with the centurian Daryl Mitchell, gave India a bit of a scare with a 181-run stand before Shami, who joined the Indian camp midway, returned in the 33rd over to hand New Zealand a double blow in the form of Williamson and Tom Latham. Mitchell, who build a partnership with Glenn Philips (41), perished for 134 to Shami in the 46th over sealing the fate of the Kiwis.
