New Zealand on Sunday, thrashed India by 8-wickets to claim their first victory of the tournament and kept their hope alive for the semi-final spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The recent failures of Indian cricket in ICC tournaments have raised questions on the capacity of Virat Kohli\u2019s captaincy. In Kohli\u2019s captaincy, the Men in Blue have lost in the 2017 Champions Trophy final, 2019 ICC World Cup semi-final, and ICC Test Championship final against New Zealand. However, Kohli has already announced that he will step down from the captaincy after the completion of the T20 World Cup 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Which team holds the edge in terms of qualifying out of Group 2? \ud83e\udd14<br><br>All your burning questions answered \ud83d\udc47 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/T20WorldCup?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#T20WorldCup<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/uMBgWph8Mi\">https:\/\/t.co\/uMBgWph8Mi<\/a><\/p>&mdash; ICC (@ICC) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ICC\/status\/1454866229206917124?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 31, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Win the toss win the match<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Toss is also proving to be a big factor in this World Cup, as winning the toss and winning the match has been the trend in this tournament. And when it comes to India, luck has not been in favor of Virat Kohli, as the Indian captain has lost the toss in both matches. Now, the chances of India for a semi-final spot seem to be very grim. Pakistan with three wins in three matches has already booked their place in the semi-final, while New Zealand after the victory against India has also two victories away from sealing their berth in the semi-finals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read Also<\/strong>:<a href=\"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/sanjay-bangar-ashwin-chakravarthy-playing-xi\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/sanjay-bangar-ashwin-chakravarthy-playing-xi\/\"> T20 World Cup, India vs NZ: Sanjay Bangar says India should include R Ashwin in playing XI instead of Chakravarthy<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Virat Kohli came with two changes in the squad, Ishan Kishan and Shardul Thakur replacing Surya Kumar Yadav and Bhubaneshwar Kumar, respectively. Team India management made another blunder after shuffling their batting orders. Ishan Kishan and KL Rahul came to open the innings, while Rohit and Kohli demoted themselves one wicket down. But nothing worked for Men in Blue and the team was restricted to 110-7 in 20 overs. Kiwi leg spinner Ish Sodhi picked the wickets of Rohit and Virat, while left-arm pacer Trent Boult scalped three wickets to complete his 50 T20Is wickets. Newly promoted Ishan Kishan also couldn\u2019t do much as the opener got put on 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chasing a target of 111 was a cakewalk for Kiwis, as they won the match in 15th over. Jasprit Bumrah was the only bowler who was impactful in the match and took two wickets. Daryl Mitchell and skipper Kane Williamson made sure that they won&#8217;t make any blunder and sealed the match for Blackcaps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Watch: Virat Kohli Stuns Shreyas Iyer &amp; Ishan Kishan With His Eye Candy Shots In Nets - IND VS NZ\" width=\"740\" height=\"416\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PnwVFO6J9Ns?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Virat Kohli-led team India is also following the same path of 2007 World Cup, as they have already lost their first two matches of the group stage in T20 World Cup 2021.
