The gorgeous Dharamsala is buzzing with excitement as Team India touched down today, gearing up for their much-awaited World Cup 2023 face-off against New Zealand.

IND vs NZ: Team India's unbeaten run faces kiwi challenge in Dharamsala

Set against the mesmerizing backdrop of the Dhauladhar mountain range, the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium will host the high-octane encounter on Sunday, October 22.

The video of their arrival in Dharamsala quickly went viral on social media. In the video, the Indian team was seen making its way out of the stadium into the team bus in the presence of fans and security officials.



However, a cloud of concern loomed over the team's arrival due to the absence of Vice-Captain Hardik Pandya. An unfortunate ankle injury during the match against Bangladesh has sidelined the charismatic all-rounder. The Indian management and players, though, are not letting this dampen their spirits. They're still riding high on the wave of their unbeaten streak in the tournament.

Team India's formidable batting order has been one of the major talking points of the World Cup so far. Batting mainstays Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have been nothing short of spectacular.

Kohli has been in sublime form, scoring 259 runs in just four innings whereas Rohit leads the run-scoring charts with 265 runs to his name. Their consistent performances have fuelled India's journey, ensuring emphatic wins over Bangladesh, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Australia.

With a legacy of being two-time world champions, India remains determined in their pursuit of glory, even without the services of Hardik. Their resolve will certainly be tested against the Kiwis, who have also been enjoying an unbeaten run in the tournament. New Zealand's latest win against Afghanistan by a massive 149-run margin tells everything about their glorious form.
