India made the record of the biggest score in the World Cup semi-finals

Today (November 15) is the first semi-final match of the tournament in the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. In this match, Team India won the toss and decided to bat first. Rohit Sharma’s decision to bat first after winning the toss proved to be absolutely correct. The Indian batsmen beat the New Zealand bowlers wherever they wanted. Playing first, India scored 397 runs for 4 wickets in 50 overs.

India got off to a great start. Captain Rohit Sharma (47), Shubman Gill (80) added 71 runs in the first 8.2 overs. Shubman Gill also looked in good form but he retired hurt on 79. After this, Virat Kohli (117) scored 50 centuries in ODI cricket history. In this way, he became the player with the highest number of centuries in ODI cricket. Shreyas Iyer (105) also scored a storming century. New Zealand’s most successful bowler was Tim Southee, who had 3 successes. Although the Saudi proved to be quite expensive, he gave away 100 runs in his 10 overs. While Trent Boult got one wicket.

Along with this, India also made the record of making the highest score in the semi-finals of the World Cup. Australia had previously scored 328/7 (50) in the semi-final against India in Sydney on 26 March 2015.
