It's semi-final time, folks! India takes on New Zealand in the first semi-final of the ICC World Cup 2019 at Manchester. India have been in superlative form coming into the final, while the previous edition's finalists New Zealand have stuttered and stumbled their way to the semis.
India topped the group stage with just one defeat while their match against New Zealand in Nottingham was washed out. New Zealand, the tournament runners-up last time, grabbed the last semi-final berth after a hat-trick of defeats nearly derailed their strong start in the tournament.
Head to head stats
Overall: India and New Zealand have played in 101 ODIs and India lead 55-45 with one game being tied.
In World Cup: The Kiwi lead 4-3 in 7 World Cup matches with the last meeting between the two sides coming in the 2003 edition held in South Africa, Kenya and Zimbabwe.
In England: The Men in Blue have had a bad record playing against the Black Caps in England and lost all 3 games they played against them, the last of them being in the 1999 World Cup.
