On Wednesday, chasing a 240-run target, Virat Kohli and men failed to put their best foot forward against a top-quality bowling attack from New Zealand and collapsed before the finishing line. Though Ravindra Jadeja with his valiant 77 and MS Dhoni with a gritty half-century gave India some hope, New Zealand inch the men towards the end of the innings to seal the match by 18 runs. With this, the Black Caps have got a ticket to the final at Lord’s on Sunday (14 July).
