New Zealand's 18-run semifinal victory against India was "an historic act of giant-killing" and "one of the finest one-day internationals ever" according to international media.
But, for Virat Kohli and his shell-shocked team, the pitchforks are well and truly out.
According to the Telegraph, the New Zealand bowlers "shocked" India to book a final spot at Lord's - a final "they have a good chance of winning".
"An historic act of giant-killing. One of the finest one-day internationals ever staged, and probably the best ever played over two days," The Telegraph's Scyld Berry wrote.
