India will be nervous facing New Zealand, reckons Ross Taylor, drawing parallels from the campaigns of both teams in the 2019 edition. New Zealand had stopped India’s dominant run four years ago when they beat the Virat Kohli-led side in the rain-hit semi-final at Manchester.

“As New Zealand prepare to take on India in the semi-finals, it is impossible not to look back at the parallels with 2019,” Taylor, who was part of that semi-final told ICC. “Four years ago, India went into the semi-final as the form side in the tournament, while we were more focused on ensuring our net run-rate would keep Pakistan out of reach for the final spot in the top four.

“This time around, India are even bigger favourites, at home and having played so well during the group stage. But when we have nothing to lose, New Zealand team can be dangerous. “If there is a team that India will be nervous facing, it will be this New Zealand side,” said one of the most prolific batsman.
