India had entered the semi-final in Manchester after finishing the league stage at the top of the table. However, New Zealand produced a disciplined performance across two days to eliminate one of the tournament favourites. Virat Kohli was dismissed for just one run in the chase, while India eventually fell 18 runs short.
Ross Taylor top-scored with 74 from 90 balls, while captain Kane Williamson contributed 67 from 95 deliveries. New Zealand eventually reached 239/8 in their 50 overs, setting India a target of 240.
Ravindra Jadeja then gave India hope with a counter-attacking 77 off 59 balls. MS Dhoni also scored 50 from 72 deliveries, but India were eventually bowled out for 221 in 49.3 overs. Matt Henry claimed 3/37, while Trent Boult and Mitchell Santner picked up two wickets each as New Zealand secured an 18-run victory.
That was very tough to process and swallow - Virat Kohli on 2019 semi-final loss
"2019 was like a, you know, a jolt to all of us. 240, rained out, we had played that day, things would have been very different. But the next morning, fresh morning, you know, they have a great new ball attack and they got the best of the conditions, they put us under pressure," Virat Kohli said on JioStar.
India's top order had been one of the strongest parts of their campaign before the semi-final, but New Zealand's new-ball attack made early inroads. Virat Kohli's dismissal for one further increased the pressure on the middle order before Jadeja and Dhoni attempted to revive the chase.
