India's World Cup semi-final match against New Zealand was suspended for the day after rain stopped the proceedings on July 9. Indian national football team captain Sunil Chhetri was named as the AIFF Men's Footballer of the Year for a record sixth time. Chhetri is currently the second highest international goal scorer among active players with 70 strikes to his name, behind Cristiano Ronaldo. Australia wicketkeeper-batsman Peter Handscomb, who was excluded from Australia's World Cup squad after the return of Steve Smith and David Warner, is all set to make his debut in the ICC showpiece event against England in the second semi-final.
