Men's ODI WC: Williamson Okay With 'underdog' Tag Ahead Of Semifinal Clash With Unbeaten India

ODI World Cup: Despite reaching the semifinals of the Men's ODI World Cup nine times in 13 editions, New Zealand will still be considered underdogs by many when they take on India in the semifinal of the 2023 edition at the Wankhede Stadium here on Wednesday.

There are two reasons for that -- one is that despite reaching the semifinals on so many occasions and the finals in the last two editions, the Black Caps are yet to win their maiden ICC title, while the second reason is the tremendous form displayed by hosts India, who go into the last-four encounter unbeaten in nine matches.

Despite their tremendous record in the 50-over cricket World Cup -- they will be playing the semifinals of the fifth successive edition, New Zealand skipper Kane Williams is quite comfortable with the underdog tag attached to his side.
