India's Mohammed Shami was all lethal in the evening of November 15 after he continued with his terrific bowling spree against New Zealand in the semi-final match
The high-octane encounter at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Wednesday saw the Men in Blue record their tenth consecutive win to enter the summit clash of the tournament.
India made a mammoth first-innings total of 397/4. The Indian top order once again did the bulk of the scoring, with Virat Kohli (117) and Shreyas Iyer (105) recording brilliant centuries.
The pacer bowled at perfect line and length and troubled the Kiwi batters throughout the innings.
Just 24 days after his brilliant fifer against New Zealand in a group stage match in Dharamsala, Mohammed Shami once again haunted the Kiwi unit.
The Indian speedster claimed a magical seven-wicket haul, this time in the semi-final of the tournament in Mumbai.
The first-ever bowler to take seven wickets in a single ODI World Cup game was Winston Davis. The West Indies pacer took 7/51 against Australia in Match 7 of the 1983 World Cup in Leeds.
He claimed the wickets of Devon Conway, Rachin Ravindra, Daryl Mitchell, Kane Williamson, Tom Latham, Lockie Ferguson, and Tim Southee
