World Cup 2023 semifinal | India vs New Zealand Playing 11 LIVE updates: Will India miss Hardik today?

Team India

 

Positives:

 

The in-form and more rounded unit. 

Batting first or chasing, the team has been adept in both. 

Also, batting spine Virat Kohli has returned to his best form.

Openers Rohit and Gill have provided electrifying starts.

The most complete bowling attack in the competition gives India the edge.

Lethal pace trio Bumrah, Siraj and Shami have claimed 45 wickets and knifed through most defences.

Chinaman bowler Kuldeep Yadav has added bite in middle overs. Jadeja remains invaluable in every way. Coo Captaincy. Home crowd support.

 

Concerns

 

The team has been so dominating that it needs to be adequately tested under pressure.

While chasing, the long, vulnerable tail was called to service in only one game (against Kiwis in Dharamsala). With all-rounder Hardik Pandya out of the picture, the team has only five regular bowlers.

Rohit has little insurance if one is targeted or has an off day.

 

X-factor: Surya Kumar Yadav, if required, has to play innings of the life today.

 

Aim

 

Creating early break-through in ttack. Extreme power hitting in Powerplay

Snapping every catch.

Hitting the stump when needed.

 

Avoid

Try not to give early wickets. Risky running between the wickets.

World Cup 2023 semifinal | India vs New Zealand LIVE: Big day for India

The 2019 Manchester heartbreak might be lingering in a corner of the hosts' mind as an irritant. The Kiwis also had the measure of India in the ICC WTC Final in 2021, if one needs more attestation of the Kiwis' grip over the latter in global events.

 

However, this Indian side has shown a propensity to rise above an uncomfortable past, but they will be aware that any slip up at the Wankhede Stadium will be viewed as a national catastrophe, shattering a billion hearts.

 

So, India will also have to rise above the pressure emanating out of those enormous expectations placed on them, also heightened by their league phase bull run.

 

Captain Rohit and coach Rahul Dravid, two individuals who know all about the pitfalls of heavy expectations, will have to keep their outfit calm, nestled away from the fear of failure in a crunch match.

 

But those are more matters of the mind. There are just as significant matters to take care of on the field.

World Cup 2023 semifinal | India vs New Zealand LIVE: Players' battle - Kohli vs Santner

The big day is here!! India would try to shed their horrific knockout record since 2011 World Cup glory when they take the field against New Zealand at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Wednesday (November 15). Ahead of the India vs New Zealand semifinal, captain Rohit Sharma said that half of the current players talk about something other than the 1983 and 2011 World Cup victories.

Here are the top six battles that could decide who will play the final at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on November 19 (Sunday):
 

Rohit Sharma vs Trent Boult
 

The swinging in deliveries has troubled Rohit in the past. Though he has batted fluently against the left-arm pacers in the 2023 World Cup, Sri Lanka pacer Dilshan Madushanka castled him for a duck at Wankhede Stadium during the league phase. In the semifinal, Trent Boult will possess the same threat.

World Cup 2023 semifinal | India vs New Zealand LIVE: Rohit on sixth bowling option

On players like Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav and even himself bowling in the final league game against the Netherlands, Rohit said that from match one of the World Cup, there was a focus on creating more bowling options and letting other non-regular bowlers roll their arm.

 

"When Hardik Pandya was injured, our combination was disturbed. We have our options but I hope we do not need them. In the last time, we could have others bowl as the situation let us do it," he added.

World Cup 2023 semifinal |: India vs New Zealand win prediction: Chandu Border has his say

Former Indian cricketer Chandu Borde said on Tuesday that India looks complete as a team and has an edge over New Zealand due to its all-round performance in the league stage in the ICC Cricket World Cup semifinal clash at Mumbai.

 

Borde also added that India's high confidence, home audience support and awareness of home conditions will act as plus points for them.

 

"Reaching semis is a good achievement. Both teams will try to reach finals. We are expecting good cricket. From the Indian point of view, the way boys are playing, they are playing confidently. The expectations from the team are very high. In India, cricket is popular so people will be backing them. It appears that India has an edge over New Zealand because of how good they have been all-round but you cannot be complacent in ODI cricket," said Borde to ANI.

"The confidence level of the team is high, they are used to the conditions, they are backed by people at home and it has given them confidence, these three factors will be a plus for India and help them do well," added the former player.

Rohit Sharma may have 31 ODI hundreds in his kitty but the Indian skipper is the last person to play the game for personal milestones or gratification, legendary Sunil Gavaskar said ahead of India's all-or-nothing World Cup semi-final against New Zealand on Wednesday.

World Cup 2023, IND vs NZ preview: Can India avenge 2019 semifinal defeat?

While answering how he would feel playing against India in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 semi-final at the Wankhede Stadium, New Zealand captain Kane Williamson said, "Playing semis is special, but playing the home team will be challenging." And he is right in using the word challenging, as he would be up against the best and only undefeated team in the tournament.
 

Having already broken the jinx of losing to the Kiwis in ICC tournaments by beating them at a league stage match in Dharamsala, Rohit's men would also look to break the jinx of losing in knockouts. They lost in the semi-final of the last two ICC events- against England in the T20 World Cup 2022 and to New Zealand in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019.
