David visited India as a representative of UNICEF. Rohit’s wife, Ritika Sajdeh, shared a story on Instagram where Rohit’s daughter, Samaira, was seen wearing Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami jersey. She also expressed gratitude to David Beckham for the gift.

Moving on to the match, led by Rohit, the Indian team dominated and comfortably defeated New Zealand by 70 runs. Batting first, India scored 397 runs, thanks to centuries by Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer. Kohli broke Sachin’s record of 49 ODI centuries, while Shreyas scored his third century of the tournament. Shubman also performed well, scoring a half-century, and KL Rahul played a quick cameo towards the end to help India achieve a formidable total.

In pursuit of the target, New Zealand had a poor start, but then Daryl Mitchell and captain Kane Williamson formed a brilliant partnership of over a hundred runs. However, Mohammad Shami bowled an exceptional over, taking two crucial wickets to bring India back into the match.

Mitchell fought hard, but his efforts were not enough as India won by 70 runs, securing their spot in the final. Shami emerged as the standout bowler of the match, taking seven wickets and becoming the tournament’s leading wicket-taker with 23 dismissals to his name.
