India will take on New Zealand in the first semi-final game of the ODI World Cup 2023 on Wednesday (November 15) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. India finished in first place at the end of the league phase with nine wins in nine games. The Kiwis have qualified for the semi-finals with five wins in nine games.

India defeated New Zealand by four wickets in their last game after chasing down the target of 274 runs in 48 overs. Virat Kohli scored 95 runs off 104 deliveries in that game, while Mohammad Shami took a fifer.

India defeated the Netherlands in their last outing by a huge margin of 160 runs after posting a total of 410 runs on the board. The top five made more than 50 runs each for India, which happened for the first time in a World Cup game. Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul went on to score their respective centuries.

New Zealand chased down a mere target of 172 runs in 23.2 overs in their last game against Sri Lanka. Tren Boult was the pick of the bowlers for the Kiwis, with three wickets for 37 runs in 10 overs. Devon Conway finished as the highest run-scorer for the team with 45 runs off 42 deliveries.

New Zealand last won an ODI game against India in India back in 2017 by six wickets on the back of a century from Tom Latham. It was Latham’s first ODI century against India. Also, this was the first time India and New Zealand played an ODI game at the Wankhede, the same venue where the semi-final game will be played.

Pitch Report

Wankhede has hosted four World Cup games so far, and batters have found it really easy to gather runs here. In the first three games, the teams batting first managed to post in excess of 350 runs here. South Africa almost reached 400 runs against England at this very venue. In the last game, even Afghanistan came close to post 300 runs here. India made 357 runs here against Sri Lanka, but the Sri Lankan batters failed to take advantage of the surface as they were bundled out for just 55 runs. The average first innings score here in the last five ODI games has been 323 runs. The team winning the toss might opt to bowl.

Player Picks

7
C

Rachin Ravindra NZ | ALL

He is just 13 runs away from scoring the most runs for New Zealand in an edition of the ODI World Cup. The 23-year-old all-rounder has scored 565 runs in nine games at an average of 70.62 and a strike rate of 108.44. He has hit three centuries and two half-centuries so far.

8.5
C

Shubman Gill IND | BAT

He is the current number one ODI batter in the ICC rankings. The Indian opener missed a well-deserved century the last time India played at the Wankhede and might look to achieve that number here.

9
C

Virat Kohli IND | BAT

He is just six runs away from scoring 600 runs in this edition of the World Cup and becoming only the third Indian batter to reach that number. He is 79 runs short of Sachin Tendulkar’s 673-run mark, which he achieved during the 2003 edition of the World Cup.

9

Rohit Sharma IND | BAT

The Indian captain has amassed 503 runs in nine games at an average of 55.88 and a strike rate of 121.49. Rohit has made one century and three half-centuries. He is 65 runs away from scoring 1000 runs in ODIs against New Zealand.

8

Mohammed Shami IND | BOWL

The pacer is just one five-wicket haul away from matching Zaheer Khan’s number of 21 wickets in a World Cup. He has already taken two fifers and might match the number of highest wickets by an Indian bowler in an edition of an ODI World Cup here.

9

Jasprit Bumrah IND | BOWL

He is four wickets away from picking 150 wickets in ODIs. Bumrah will become the joint second-fastest Indian bowler to reach this number if he takes the next four wickets against New Zealand.

9

Ravindra Jadeja IND | ALL

He has taken 16 wickets so far in nine games at an average of 18.25 and might be eyeing Zaheer Khan’s record of 21 wickets. This is already his best bowling performance in the ODI World Cup.

8.5

Daryl Mitchell NZ | ALL

Only three Kiwi batters have managed to make more than 500 runs in an edition of the World Cup. Mitchell is 82 runs away from becoming the fourth. He has made 418 runs in eight innings at an average of 59.71 and a strike rate of 110.58.

8.5

Kuldeep Yadav IND | BOWL

He will play his 100th ODI game for India against New Zealand. Kuldeep has picked 14 wickets so far in nine games at an average of 22.28.

Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team

8.5

Tim Southee

NZ | BOWL

He has played three games so far and has managed just four wickets. He can be avoided in this game.

7.5

Mark Chapman

NZ | ALL

He has been dismissed for a single-digit score in three out of his last five outings. Chapman might not be the best pick for your fantasy team.
