In the World Cup match held on October 22, 2023, India clinched a significant victory against New Zealand by securing a four-wicket win. This triumph helped India maintain their unbeaten record in the tournament. The match took place at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala, and India successfully chased down New Zealand's target of 274 runs with two overs to spare, marking their first ICC event victory over New Zealand since 2003.

Virat Kohli played a pivotal role in India's run chase, contributing 95 runs off 104 balls. In the absence of Hardik Pandya and a run-out dismissal of Suryakumar Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja stepped up to the plate, scoring an unbeaten 39 runs off 44 balls and sealing the match with a boundary.

Captain Rohit Sharma also made a valuable contribution, adding 46 runs from 40 balls, and his opening partnership with Shubman Gill, who scored 26, accounted for 71 runs before both were dismissed by Lockie Ferguson. Shreyas Iyer played a quick innings, hitting six boundaries on his way to 33 runs from 29 balls, while KL Rahul scored 27 runs off 35 balls before being dismissed by Mitchell Santner.

In the earlier part of the day, Mohammed Shami, playing his first match of the World Cup 2023, disrupted New Zealand's momentum after a 159-run partnership between Rachin Ravindra (75) and Daryl Mitchell (130) for the third wicket. New Zealand had a shaky start but then found themselves cruising at 178/2 in 33.2 overs.

However, Shami's crucial breakthrough by dismissing Ravindra derailed New Zealand's progress. Kuldeep Yadav, despite being a bit expensive, capitalized on the opportunity created by Shami and took the wickets of Tom Latham (5) and Glenn Phillips (23).

Jasprit Bumrah also contributed with a wicket, dismissing Mark Chapman for 6, while Shami continued his outstanding performance by clean bowling Mitchell Santner and Matt Henry on consecutive deliveries.
