Virat Kohli is not someone you want to mess with. Seriously!

This intruder finds it the hard way. RCB Insider’s Danish Sait dons the role of the intruder in this hilarious video where he approaches Royal Challengers Bangalore captain, who is clearly surprised at having an uninvited visitor in the middle of a shoot.

Sait walks in as Mr. Nags (leaving everyone wondering who the intruder might be), as he looks for the director. Eventually, he walks into Kohli and introduces him as a member of the shoot and asks for the script.

Kohli, clearly not amused, hands him the script and displays angry looks on more than one occasion. The director clearly understands this as being a waste of players’ time and asks the intruder to leave “promising” him a major part in a movie, but not in this ad.

Outside, he runs into Chris Gayle and Dinesh Karthik (who are minding their own business) and engages in a conversation with them. Virat finds him and asks if the players were getting disturbed. Knowing that he is an intruder, Gayle, Karthik and Kohli personally throw him out of the location.

New Zealand is the only other unbeaten team in this edition of the cricket World Cup.

The Kiwis won all their six matches in order to acquire their spot to play the quarter-finals.

West Indies, on the other hand, struggled earlier in the competition and was made to fight in its last Pool match against UAE.

West Indies vs. New Zealand will be played at the WestpacTrust Stadium in Wellington. West Indies has always begun its war of words with former ODI captain Darren Sammy claiming that the pressure would be on their opponents. He also justified his claim by putting forth West Indies’ record in the knock-outs, which is not actually bad.

Nevertheless, the truth is evident. Where New Zealand earned quick wins (except the one against Australia), the Caribbean players faced their share of struggle with the possibility of being sent home looming over them.

West Indies faced defeat in their opening match against Ireland despite posting a target of over 300 runs. However, they won back-to-back matches against Pakistan and Zimbabwe, which was followed by two defeats – against India and South Africa – putting them in a spot of bother.

New Zealand would be a confident side entering the match tomorrow. They have had a week long rest with their last match played on 13^th March against Bangladesh that they won by 3 wickets.

Unfortunately for the West Indies, opening batsman Chris Gayle has fired only once when he scored 215 against Zimbabwe. Besides that, his performance in this tournament has been pedestrian, which is also one of the reasons for his team’s poor show. Judging by the way the Kiwis are playing, the swashbuckling southpaw will have to rise up to the occasion.

Chris Gayle will have to perform for West Indies to win

New Zealand’s Brendon McCullum, especially, has been in terrific form with the bat. Their last Pool game also saw Martin Guptill score 105 making him an accountable player in the squad. Even their bowling has not been a disappointment with their spearhead Trent Boult being the third successful bowler in the tournament with 15 wickets.

Even though the Kiwis appear as a much superior side than the team from the Caribbean, they would be wary of the consequence that lies ahead because of one mistake. If West Indies players such as Gayle, Samuels, Sammy and even Russell fire, that would mean trouble for the co-hosts.

As far as team centuries are concerned for this tournament, West Indies edge New Zealand by 3-1. Jason Holder has already emphasised on how important it will be for his bowlers to dismiss New Zealand’s middle-order.

New Zealand cricketing legend Richard Hadlee had words of inspiration for his team. “This is four years of planning and preparation to get to seven hours of cricket and if you’re good enough, you’ll get another seven hours”, he was quoted as saying.

Both teams have also been troubled by unwanted injuries with Darren Bravo of West Indies and Adam Milne suffering the effect.

Nevertheless, though New Zealand look like the team that would win this bout, West Indies would enter the field with all guns blazing. It, indeed, will keep the audience hooked to the edge of their seats.

West Indies were the underdogs entering in their match against India yesterday during the World Cup.

As expected, India beat them, but in a fashion that cricket fans would not call convincing.

India vs West Indies was played on 6th March

India versus West Indies was played at the WACA, Perth, where the team from the Caribbean won the toss and elected to bat first.

Even before the match began, the experts predicted the game to be not a high-scoring one, for the WACA pitch is considered as one of the quickest and bounciest tracks in the world.

For the West Indies to score big, Chris Gayle had to be in top form. The southpaw decided to go out all guns blazing, in the course of which he was dropped thrice by the Indian fielders. He was eventually caught in the deep for 21 by Mohit Sharma off a Mohammed Shami bouncer.

What followed this dismissal was a sorry state for the Caribbean team, as their batting line-up fell like a pack of cards. The only player to show some form of resistance was their captain Jason Holder, who scored 57 off 64 balls.

West Indies were all out for 182 runs; coincidentally, the target, 183, was the exact number team India had scored back in 1983 to win the Prudential Cup against the same opponent.

Knowing the nature of the WACA pitch, the Indians would have known that even chasing 183 would appear daunting. And that is what happened!

Jerome Taylor bowled his heart out getting rid of the openers. Unfortunately, his quota of 10 overs was not completed and he ended up with the figures of 8-0-33-2. Andre Russell was the second successful bowler (43-2).

Virat Kohli did manage to steady the Indian batting after the fall of the two openers, but he was dismissed for 33 runs by Russell.

‘Captain Cool’ MS Dhoni remained unbeaten on 45 runs at the end of the innings along with Ravichandran Ashwin (16 runs off 32 balls).

Indian managed to beat the West Indies by 4 wickets with 10.5 overs remaining.

This defeat was special for team India and for MS Dhoni, as they earned a few accolades –

India became the first team to qualify for the quarter-finals from Group B

The win over West Indies gave India its eighth consecutive win in the World Cups. In the process, India equalled the win tally it had achieved back in the 2003 ICC Cricket World Cup

MS Dhoni became the most successful captain away from home (59 wins), surpassing Sourav Ganguly’s record of 58 wins overseas.

India has now won all its matches in this year’s World Cup. During the press conference, Dhoni explained that now all came down to the knockout stage.

“It will be important how well we play on that particular day, especially going into the knockout stages. I feel all the teams are nicely poised. All of them have the right combination and have clicked well. It is a really balanced World Cup. We just need to keep doing what we are doing right, and take it one game at a time.”
