India will look to end their World Cup jinx against New Zealand. The Men in Blue haven’t won a World Cup-game against the Blackcaps since 2003 and would be desperate to turn the tables on Kane Williamson’s side.
Both sides are heading into this Super 12 contest on the back of a defeat in their opening game against Pakistan.
