U-19 World Cup: India to clash with New Zealand in semi-finals

India take on New Zealand on Thursday in the semi-finals of the ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup at Townsville, Australia.With confidence at an all time high after a narrow win over arch-rivals Pakistan in the quarter-finals, India would look to carry on the good show against the Kiwis. Having started on a poor note, losing their lung opener against the West Indies, India managed to bring their campaign back on track with back-to-back victories against Zimbabwe and Papua New Guinea before registering one-wicket victory over Pakistan in the last eight round.Like India, New Zealand also managed to snatch a win from the jaws of defeat against in-form West Indies in the quarters. On the eve of tomorrow's match, Kiwi skipper Will Young said India would be a tough side to beat. But, he also said if his team play to their potential, they can beat India.
