The Indian cricket team is just one win away from the ODI Cricket World Cup title. After 12 long years, the Indian cricket team entered the ODI Cricket World Cup final with a win over new Zealand in the semi-final of the 2023 edition. Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer scored a century each as the Rohit Sharma-led Indian cricket team set a huge 398-run target in the Cricket World Cup semi-final. Then, Mohammed Shami took a seven-wicket haul as India dismissed New Zealand for 327 to win the Cricket World Cup semi-final by 70 runs.
After former India opener Virender Sehwag was inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame on Monday, the stars of Indian cricket team summed up their impression of the cricket great in one word. "Destructive," said all-rounder Hardik Pandya while "fearless" was the word used by batter Suryakumar Yadav in Sehwag's praise. "Flamboyant," said Shubman Gill while Ravindra Jadeja called Sehwag "dangerous". The International Cricket Council (ICC) took to social media to post the video with the caption: "Hall of Fame inductee Virender Sehwag summed up in a word."

The Indian cricket team will take on New Zealand in a much-anticipated Cricket World Cup 2023 semifinal encounter in Mumbai on Wednesday. When the two teams last met in the knockout stages of Cricket World Cup, New Zealand emerged victorious and both experts and fans have expressed their concern regarding the pressure that the Rohit Sharma-led side will be under in front of a home crowd. However, ahead of the match, Rohit made it clear that the focus of the side is completely on winning and even came up with a 1983 World Cup reference to point out that past records will not play a major role.
Indian cricket team stars Suryakumar Yadav, Shubman Gill, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli all turned into bowlers in their team's massive win over Netherlands in the Cricket World Cup 2023 on Sunday. India had already qualified for the semi-finals and with a massive total of 410 on the board, skipper Rohit decided to try out almost all of the part-time bowling options at his disposal. India bowling coach Paras Mhambrey was asked about the bowling show in a video posted by BCCI on social media and he sounded extremely pleased with the part-time bowlers' planning and execution on the field.
Suryakumar Yadav became the latest recipient of the 'Fielder of the Match' award for his exceptional efforts against the Netherlands as India ended the group stage unbeaten. Surya barely had any time to make an impact with the bat, but on the field, he stood out and made his presence felt. India's fielding coach T Dilip, who has brought memorable innovations to how the prize is awarded, called the team as well as the management out on the field and revealed the name of the contenders on the big screen instead of displaying it on the usual screen.
India captain Rohit Sharma added another feather to his cap, claiming his first wicket in a Cricket World Cup match on Sunday. Rolling his arm as India needed just one wicket to win the contest against the Netherlands in Bengaluru, Rohit delivered having bowled just 5 deliveries. Wife Ritika Sajdeh, who was watching from the stands, was all smiles seeing the India captain do something unique on the 22-yard strip.
