India did not reach the semi-finals of 2021 t20 world cup After a scary start to the tournament with consecutive defeats against arch-rivals Pakistan and New Zealand. They finished third in Group 2 of the Super 12 stage. Despite a talented team, India failed to play fearless cricket against top teams for which their chances were wasted.

Karim said that other teams often underestimate New Zealand in big matches and do not do their homework properly.
“New Zealand is the team that everyone ignores, underestimates, and takes for granted. Any team that plays against New Zealand doesn’t do as much homework to its players. They feel that they are not a global T20 league. We are playing, there are no big names, so we can beat them easily.”
