- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.1 For once, the pull brings about Rohit's undoing. Was a back of a length ball just outside off stump. Rohit looks for a pull, probably the ball didn't arrive as quickly as he was expecting. He gets it right of the cue end of the blade and Young takes a simple enough catch at square leg. 22/22.5 Huge appeal for lbw as Gill misses an in-dipper and is caught in front of the stumps. The umpire's finger is up in a jiffy. That looks adjacent. Gill has a word with Rohit and reviews. Wow, that looks really close. Was a length ball that tailed back into Gill late. He plays with a straight bat, misses and is rapped on the pad right in front. At worst, it will be umpire's call on leg stump. Nope, replays confirm that the ball would have smashed into the top of leg stump. Gill goes and takes a review with him 15/16.4 OH, MY WORD! Phillips, what are you made of! How has he held on to that? Short, wide and Kohli has absolutely smashed that to the right of Phillips at backward point. Any other fielder and that was going for a four. Not when Phillips is around. He leaps, flings out his right hand, and hangs on to an an absolute stunner. The ball was almost behind him, but he catches it while almost being parallel to the ground. WOW! Kohli can't believe it. No one can, really. 30/336.2 The short ball brings about Iyer's undoing one more time. He was not going to shy away, but this time, the gamble does not pay off. Banged in short on off stump at 143kph. Iyer is rushed into the pull and gets a big top edge as Young runs back from short midwicket to take the catch. There was a bit of a juggle, but he hung on. 172/529.2 Top edge, soft dismissal! Axar cannot believe it. Short and spinning in on middle and leg, 93.8kph, he goes back to just direct it to the on side. The bat face was facing down, he never intended to hit it in the air. The ball bounces more, takes the top edge and almost evades Williamson, who runs sideways to his back from short fine leg, sticks out his right hand to hold on to that. Ravindra breaks the 98-run stand 128/439.1 Edged and taken! That is such a lovely delivery from Santner and equally well taken by Latham. Gets the length ball to skid through at around 91kph on off. Rahul plays that off the wicket, gets a thick edge and Latham hangs on to it 182/649.3 Skied high and taken in the deep! End of the Hardik show and India lose a massive wicket. Another short ball that is angled in on off and middle, 122.2kph. He swings hard to pull it away but only gets it to deep square leg, where Ravindra momentarily loses it but keeps his composure to catch that safely. Fourth wicket for Henry 246/845.5 Williamson does a Phillips at backward point! Jeeeeez! What are these Kiwis? Henry bowls a bouncer outside off, it is the cross-seam delivery. Jadeja delays his shot as he hops and slaps it to the off side. Could have been at least a couple if not for a flying Williamson. New Zealand making fielding at backward point look as easy as ABC! 223/749.6 Swings hard, it flies high and Phillips comes running in and takes it. A five-wicket haul for Henry! Another slower one, Shami goes for the big one but only skies it towards deep midwicket. Phillips ain't missing these 249/9Extras10 (b 1, w 9)TOTAL249/9 (50 Overs, RR: 4.98)Did not bat: CV VarunFall of wickets: 1-15 (Shubman Gill, 2.5 ov), 2-22 (Rohit Sharma, 5.1 ov), 3-30 (Virat Kohli, 6.4 ov), 4-128 (Axar Patel, 29.2 ov), 5-172 (Shreyas Iyer, 36.2 ov), 6-182 (KL Rahul, 39.1 ov), 7-223 (Ravindra Jadeja, 45.5 ov), 8-246 (Hardik Pandya, 49.3 ov), 9-249 (Mohammed Shami, 49.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.3 Right through his defences and Varun C is on the board. Googly outside off and spinning back into Young, who does not account for the turn. Gets a thick inside-edge and sees his stumps in a mess 49/23.6 Axar takes a beauty and Hardik gets the big wicket of Ravindra. Banged in short outside off, Rachin gets up on his toes and looks to ramp this much finer. Ends up mistiming towards Axar at deep third, who initially misjudged the catch before diving forward and completing a fine catch 17/140.6 Stumped by a country mile! Rahul does not miss this time and Axar rejoices. Axar anticipated the charge and tossed it up, but landed it on a length. It was the arm ball and Williamson missed it on the inside as he charged down to hit straight over. Rahul collects it and does not immediately disturb the bails, but Williamson does not bother looking back and continues his march to the dugout. What a strike for Axar, on the last ball of his spell 169/725.1 Huge appeal for lbw, Gough raises the dreaded finger! Mitchell chats with Williamson and takes it upstairs. Nicely tossed up on a fullish length around off and middle, he comes forward to defend. But the ball spins in past the inside edge to hit him below the knee-roll. Off and half of middle is visible on impact, is the ball doing too much? They wait
a bitfor longggggg for ball-tracking to build. Three reds and Mitchell is toast! New Zealand lose a wicket and a review, end of a steady partnership 93/332.2 Huge appeal for lbw, and the umpire's finger is up in a flash. Will Latham review? He looks dejected as he trudges towards his partner. And, nope, he won't review. Flatter length ball on off, Latham goes reverse, misses and is struck right in front of off and middle. Only a little glove or bat could have saved him. Nothing there and off Latham goes 133/435.4 What a riposte from Varun! And that's that as far as Phillips is concerned. Gets the googly to drift in sharply from well outside off. Phillips plays all around it and is trapped bang in front of middle stump. That would have missed off, missed leg, and smashed into middle. Phillips doesn't even bother reviewing. 151/537.1 Surely, that's out if it is pad first. And I reckon it is pad first. Bracewell has a word with Williamson and does not review. Varun gets his third, and NZ are in deep trouble now. Googly that spins away from Bracewell sharply. Hits his pad first, and then bat and the umpire's finger was up in a jiffy. Did that hit Bracewell outside the line, though? Hmmm, the replays will be interesting. It is umpire's call on line, but hang on... replays show the ball was missing off stump. 159/644.2 Castled! There's the big wicket of Santner and Varun picks up his fourth. He bowls the cross-seam quicker one on a length from over the wicket, Santner looks to steer it away but is beaten for pace. Perplexed look on his face before he starts trudging back 195/844.4 Gets the five-for man to pick up a five-wicket-haul of his own, Varun! New Zealand have crumbled against spin here. Flighted leggie on middle and leg, Henry looks to go straight but skies it high. Kohli comes forward from long-off and takes it. Varun becomes only the third Indian to pick up a five-for in the Champions Trophy 196/945.3 Goes through! India win and seal semi-final date with Australia. Nicely tossed up, it is the googly again, O'Rourke has no clue as he looks to flick it through the on side. The ball lands on leg and spins away to rattle the stumps 205/10Extras11 (lb 2, nb 1, w 8)TOTAL205 all out (45.3 Overs, RR: 4.5)Fall of wickets: 1-17 (Rachin Ravindra, 3.6 ov), 2-49 (Will Young, 11.3 ov), 3-93 (Daryl Mitchell, 25.1 ov), 4-133 (Tom Latham, 32.2 ov), 5-151 (Glenn Phillips, 35.4 ov), 6-159 (Michael Bracewell, 37.1 ov), 7-169 (Kane Williamson, 40.6 ov), 8-195 (Mitchell Santner, 44.2 ov), 9-196 (Matt Henry, 44.4 ov), 10-205 (Will OâRourke, 45.3 ov)Bowling O M R W Econ 0s 4s 6s WD NB Mohammed Shami 4 0 15 0 3.75 16 2 0 0 0 HH Pandya 4 0 22 1 5.5 14 2 0 0 1 AR Patel 10 0 32 1 3.2 36 2 0 0 0 CV Varun 10 0 42 5 4.2 36 1 2 2 0 Kuldeep Yadav 9.3 0 56 2 5.89 28 2 2 2 0 RA Jadeja 8 0 36 1 4.5 25 3 0 0 0
