As the game progressed, Shami provided another blow by trapping Tom Latham LBW for 0(2). Mitchell, who had already slammed a hundred, then held the fort with Glenn Phillips and added 75 runs for the fifth wicket. Bumrah dismissed Phillips for 41 in the 43rd over to ensure the victory and Kuldeep Yadav dismissed Mark Chapman in the next over.
Shami then dented Blackcaps' hopes completely as he dismissed Daryl Mitchell for 134 off 119 deliveries in the 46th over. Mitchell's brilliant innings featured nine boundaries and seven maximums. Shami bundled out the innings by scalping the last couple of wickets.
Earlier in the innings India made a mockery of the New Zealand bowling attack after batting first in the semi-final as centuries from Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer propelled the team to an imposing 397/4 in Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium on Wednesday.
