Beckham was seen having a chat with the Indian cricketers together with legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar and present star of the lineup Virat Kohli.
The Men in Blue have got down to search revenge for his or her 2019 semi-final World Cup defeat. Martin Guptill’s runout broke the hearts of the Indian followers. But 4 years later, India will probably be eager to take their revenge after clinching their first victory towards New Zealand since 2003.
Indian skipper Rohit Sharma stated throughout the time of toss, “We are gonna bat first. Looks like a good pitch. Looks like on the slower side. Whatever we do, we need to do well. I think it was back in 2019 when we played the semis. NZ is one of the most consistent sides. Very important day. Constantly, talking about how important it is abiut turning up on that day. Same team.”
New Zealand captain Kane Williamson stated throughout the time of toss, “We would have batted first. Hopefully, some dew later. Amazing occasion. Four years ago, similar situation but a different location. They have been playing some good cricket. Always a building phase between the tournaments. Need to assess what is in front of you when the tournament starts. We are going with the same team from the previous match.”
