All bowlers except Sonam picked up a wicket each for India with legspinner Chopra returning three. Have they done enough for India to stomp into the finals? Or will New Zealand put up a fight and take it away? Ekanth will be here soon with the reply.
Georgia Plimmer: "We came back well after losing two wickets early. A lowish total but we back our bowlers to bowl well. India bowled to their field and we couldn't capitalise on the bad balls. We should keep it tight and not give them any width."
11:25am New Zealand have been restricted and India should be the confident side heading into the break. After opting to bowl, India were on the money and never let New Zealand get away. Only Plimmer and Gaze struck a partnership of 37 to cause some concerns but once they were separated, it was all one-way traffic.
Arun Dahiya: "40-2 to 95-8. Great comeback by India. Hopefully no heartbreak this time for Indian Fans due to NZ."

KJ: "Not great batting by NZ at all. Multiple balls tossed up outside the off stump and every shot has been to the heavily defended leg side. Not sure what their plan actually is...."
