2019 Cricket World Cup semifinal round up

Well, New Zealand are in the final yet again after comprehensively beaten India in the semifinal by 18 runs at Old Trafford in Manchester (New Zealand bowler Matt Henry got his man of the match performance after claiming 3 wickets but what about that throw to Martin Guptill to dismiss MS Dhoni because that run out decided our fate of reaching the final) while hosts England are in the final after demoralizing & mesmerizing the defending champions Australia in the other semifinal by 8 wickets at Edgbaston in Birmingham (English all rounder Chris Woakes was the top performer after claiming his man of the match award).

So it's New Zealand against hosts England (Well, both sides have never won a Cricket World Cup title to their name so both teams desperately want their name to be etched on the trophy but there can only be one winner (And one will become champions of the world) at Lord's this Sunday in the 2019 Cricket World Cup final so stay tuned & watch this space (And may the best team win! Good luck out there).

So that is my 295th blog of the year 2019 (MMXIX) & my 35th of this year (There is exactly 5 more until I reach 300).
