After the loss, India captain Virat Kohli tweeted, thanking fans for their support. Kohli, in his message to the fans, said that "We are all disappointed & share the same emotions as you. We gave everything we had". Speakig at the press conference, India skipper Virat Kohli said that New Zealand deserved to as they put India under more pressure; the way Kiwis bowled was what made the difference. “The first half, we were very, very good. We got what we needed at that point. We thought we had restricted New Zealand to a chaseable score but the way they come out with the ball was what made the difference. I think it was the skill level on display (from NZ bowlers) was there for all to see. Jadeja had a really good couple of games and it's his performances that are a huge positive. New Zealand deserve it, they put us under more pressure.” said skipper Kohli. “At times, I think our shot-selection could have been better. Really proud of the way we competed throughout the tournament. As I said, come the knockouts, New Zealand were braver than us and deserve to win. Thanks to all the fans, thanks for coming out in huge numbers.” he added. Resuming on 211/5 on Wednesday, New Zealand finished on 239/8 in their 50 overs after rain interrupted play at 46.1 overs into their innings on Tuesday. However, the Kiwi bowlers made full use of the conditions to give India some early blows during the first semi-final at the Old Trafford.
