India took on New Zealand on Tuesday at Manchester in the ICC World Cup 2019 Semi Finals first match. The bowlers did a stunning job and gave a hard time for the Kiwis rounding them off 211/5 in about 47 overs. And rain stopped the play and the match was moved to reserve day, Wednesday.

New Zealand started off from where they left and scored 239 for 8 in 50 overs losing 3 more wickets and scoring 28 runs in 3 overs.

India came in with much hype but soon India touched the rock bottom. Rohit Sharma was caught for just 1 - he was only 27 runs away from breaking Sachin Tendulkar's record of highest run getter in single edition of World Cup.

Then Virat Kohli was taken for LBW and soon KL Rahul was sent off back to the pavilion by the Kiwis. Pant and Dinesh Karthik are playing in No. 4 and No. 5. Karthik went back to the paviliion when India was 25. Pandya came in to play and the total by the end of 20 overs was 70/4. The middle order is now exposed and will they save the team and take them to Finals or if it will rain and save the day for India or will the bottom of the 4, Kiwis beat the team in the top, Men in Blue is something we all need to watch for.
