That match was played at Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow. New Zealand won the toss and elected to bat first. Before starting this match, the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh "Yogi Adityanath" met the players. Indian captain Hardik Pandya and Mitchell Santner met him at the cricket ground.
New Zealand batters are ready to attack🔥
Finn Allen and Devon Conway were on the crease with positivity. This was a different condition from the last time. They think it easy to us attacking Indian bowlers. But they failed to attack the bowlers, it's time for Indian bowlers. Yuzvender Chahal gets the first wicket for India and sent Finn Allen to the pavilion on the score of 11 runs. In the next over, Washington Sundar was ready to bowl and he dismissed Devon Conway on the score of 11 runs. New Zealand players understand that it was not easy to score in this match after early losing 2wickets. Glenn Phillips and Mark Chapman are on the crease. They think only saving their wicket and spending more time on the crease. After the first powerplay, New Zealand were 33 runs for losing 2 wickets.
Indian bowlers came back with a massive form
After taking 2 wickets in the first powerplay. They can't stop to taking wickets, in the very next over Deepak Hooda dismissed Glenn Phillips, and NZ was in trouble because they loose 3 wickets in just 7 overs. Last match Hero Daryl Mitchell came to bat, but this time was Indian bowlers. Kuldeep Yadav came in the 10th over to bowl and in the last ball of the over he takes the wicket of Daryl Mitchell. The match went on like this and none of the batsmen was able to score well. Because the Indian bowlers were bowling so well that it was difficult for them to understand whether to save their wickets or score runs😕. After India bowled 16 overs and NZ was 76 runs after losing of 5 wickets.
NZ batters failed to score runs😑
After bowling like this, how can it be possible to score runs? Mitchell Santner and Michael Bracewell are playing safely, but Hardik Pandya gets the wicket of Michael Bracewell and breaks the partnership at the start of the death overs. Arshdeep Singh came to bowl in the 18th over and he took 2 wickets in that over and stopped the NZ scoreboard. After ending of the first inning NZ was just 99 runs losing 8 wickets. The highest scorer of this match was New Zealand captain Mitchell Santner, who scored 19 runs.
Talking about Indian bowlers🗣
At the start of the match, It seems to like the Indian bowlers are coming with very good preparation and looked confident. What better start to a match than this? Indian bowlers destroyed NZ's backbone. Arshdeep Singh took 2 wickets. Hardik Pandya, Washington Sundar, Yuzvender Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav, and Deepak Hooda, all take 1-1 wicket.
India was ready to defend this small total
Indian batsmen came to bat with the thought of winning this match. With this Shubman Gill and Ishan Kishan came to bat. But this was not easy to score runs easily. NZ have also good bowling attack. Indian openers are played safely and try to build partnerships. Michael Bracewcamecame to bowl in the 4th over and took the first wicket of this match, he dismissed Shubman Gill on the score of 11 runs. Again Shubman Gill fails to score big. Rahul Tripathi was next to come bat, and he and Ishan will play slowly. After ending of the first powerplay India's score was 29 runs on the losing of 1 wicket.
Not easy to chase this smallest total 👀👀
Indian voters thought that this is a very small total, and it will be easy to chase. But it was not so, the easier it seemed to him, the more difficult it seemed now. Part-timer bowler, Glenn Phillips came with the ball in the 9th over and he dismissed Ishan Kishan, India were 46 runs for losing 2 wickets. wickets didn't stop falling, in the 11th over Ish Sodhi sent Rahul Tripathi to the pavilion. Indian batsmen understood that it is not that easy, so now they started scoring runs slowly and moving toward victory.
Washington Sundar was coming with a bat and playing some match-winning shorts. Surya Kumar Yadav was a destructive batsman but in this match, he also did not hit any boundary and played slowly because of the match conditions. Then another wicket goes to Washington Sundar in the 15th over and another new twist in the match ends.
Finally, India won the match 😍
Hardik Pandya and Surya Kumar Yadav are on the pitch. They both played very safely because they know the match was in our hands, and this match was important to us. Because if this match was lost then India would have lost the series too. That's why these two were playing slowly and were moving toward winning. In the last over of this match, Surya Kumar Yadav hits a boundary, and with this India won the match and leveled the series by 1-1. It was not as easy as it seemed in the beginning but everyone played well and won the match.
