Till Sunday, two teams were unbeaten at the Cricket World Cup 2023 - the Rohit Sharma-led Indian cricket team and the New Zealand cricket team. So, their clash at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala was sort of a decider as to which team was the best after the first few round of matches at the Cricket World Cup 2023. To add intrigue to the contest, the Indian cricket team had not been able to win against New Zealand in a Cricket World Cup match since 2003. However, that record changed as India beat New Zealand by four wickets.
New Zealand batsman Daryl Mitchell on Sunday said he was proud of his team's bowlers for putting up a fight in their World Cup loss to an India side inspired by "world class" Virat Kohli. Mitchell's 130 guided the Kiwis to 273 all out but the total proved insufficient as India chased it down with two overs to spare in Dharamsala. Kohli hit 95 to lead the hosts to their fifth victory in as many matches and topple New Zealand, who lost their first match, from the top of the 10-team table.
