Something that caught everyone's eye is, a group of Indian fans who wore a jersey with "Kohli" printed in the front and "Dhoni" at the back. This excited the official Twitter handle of the International Cricket Council (ICC) and they posted the images of the fans and tweeted, "Because Dhoni's got Kohli's back".
Along with the tweet, the fans who featured in the pictures have received high praise from twitterati for their creativity. One of the fans even tweeted, "This is the most beautiful thing I've seen omg".
Today, India and New Zealand are meeting in a World Cup match for the ninth time. Interestingly, India have never beaten New Zealand in a World Cup match in England.
In this World Cup 2019 season, India qualified for semi-finals after finishing on top of the league stage. While New Zealand made their way on the basis of superior net run rate in comparison to Pakistan.
