India off to a steady start against NZ in Vizag
October 29, 2016  13:54


India 17-0 (5 ovs) vs NZ | Scorecard

Finally Rohit Sharma gets on strike, against Southee in the third over of the innings. Southee gets the edge but it falls short of the fielder at first slip as Rohit plays a loose shot away from his body.

Rohit decides to release the pressure by going down the track to Southee and lofts him over mid-off for a four.

The next ball comes in as Rohit is struck on the pads but the ball looked to be slipping down the leg side.

Boult switches to round the wicket as he comes on to bowl the second over. The aim is to keep it on the stumps and not give any width to the two batsmen, who are very good through the off-side.

Boult has once again made a tidy start, giving away just a single in his second over, for a total of just five runs in two overs.

Just three runs from Southee's next over as India reach 17 for no loss in five overs.
