New Zealand spinner Ish Sodhi said that he did not expect that his side will win this comprehensively against India in the ongoing ICC Men`s T20 World Cup.

"Absolutely not. You go into matches like this with a team full of world-class performers like India have, and they`ve got a great record against us over the past few years. Very tough opposition in any conditions anywhere in the world," Sodhi said during a virtual post-match press conference. "So it`s definitely a special win. After a tough loss against Pakistan, I think the boys regrouped really well. And to be able to pull off a win like that, it`s definitely something you don`t take lightly," he added.
