So just as the two teams faced each other in 2019, India square up once more against the always lethal side in One Day International Cricket: The Black Caps/Kiwis/New Zealand Team.
The 2019 semi final was won by Kiwis beating India when India were the favorites.
This time, India beat Kiwis as well as 8 other teams and the score is 9-0.
Even more emphatic is the way India has won matches with big margins against teams like Sri Lanka, Pakistan, England and surprisingly, South Africa.
But well, it is always a day at a time.
Who plays better wins the game.
So one can expect a tough match when Kiwis take on India tomorrow in the 1st semi final.
The venue is Wankhede stadium in Mumbai.

It was in Kolkata today.
Aussies overcome tough fight from the Proteas to win by 3 wickets.
Proteas fell some 30 to 40 runs short !
So well, it's Australia vs India Final on 19th !!

David Miller played well but other top order batters did not play good enough.

Yes Kiwi are tough fighters.
Plus Trent Boult has regained his form.
The Kiwis would try to put Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli under immense pressure.
