New Delhi: Team India's journey in the 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup came to an end today as New Zealand defeated the Indian cricket team in the semi-finals of the tournament, shattering the dreams of millions of Indian fans.

The match, which went on for two days due to rain on the first day, didn't just leave the fans disappointed but also Bollywood celebrities. Even after a shaky start, Ravindra Jadeja and MS Dhoni's partnership got the team close to the score, but they still couldn't make it.

While people are still reeling over India's loss in the tournament, Bollywood celebrities took to Twitter to express their disappointment after India missed their chance to lift the World Cup trophy.

Anupam Kher, Aamir Khan, Karan Johar, Ayushmann Khurrana, Riteish Deshmukh, Rishi Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, Arjun Rampal, Randeep Hooda, Sonakshi Sinha, Huma Qureshi, and Boman Irani, among many others, hailed team India for putting up a good fight against the Kiwis.

Aamir took to the micro-blogging site and wrote for him India "had already won the world cup when we qualified for the semis."

Anupam shared a picture of the Indian cricket team and thanked the players for their efforts. He also said that the team binds everyone together and brings out "the Indian in us."

KJo appreciated the Indian cricket team's efforts and said we should applaud them for their "incredible journey" and not "just focus on the destination."

Ayushmann too hailed India's performance and said it was a "rare bad day in office."

Riteish took to Twitter and applauded Dhoni and Jadeja for giving a tough fight to the Kiwis. He also congratulated New Zealand on their win.

Rishi hailed both the teams and wrote, "Well played New Zealand, well played India! Underdogs did it."

Sonakshi took to the micro-blogging site and hailed the boys for "playing well."

Randeep's tweet was the most relatable one by far as he shared how he felt after Dhoni was run out.

New Zealand ended India's campaign at the World Cup as they defeated the Men in Blue by 18 runs.
