India may have lost their semifinal battle to hosts Australia at the World Cup 2015, but they still have an important acquittal to play in the tournament’s title-clash that is scheduled to take place between New Zealand and Australia. How’s that? Read on.

India is one of the most populous countries in the world and the fans consider the sport as their religion here. With their home team suffering heartbreak in the last-four stage to Australia, the fans must now be hoping for their on-field slaughterers to lose out the summit clash.

This gives a reason to smile to New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum, who is counting on a huge prop up from the Indian fans in their quest to subdue Australia for their first World Cup title Down Under.

“I think, it’s probably no secret that most of the other teams around the world would probably want New Zealand to win against Australia,” CricBuzz quoted McCullum as saying. “So hopefully, we’ll get a good smattering of support tomorrow, and I’m sure the Indian guys will certainly be rooting for us.”
