Munro on the attack; NZ set for huge total

February 10, 2019 13:29

NZ 135-1 (13 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

New Zealand take the sensible route by not trying anything fancy against Kuldeep, as they are content to just pick the singles against the spinner, who has caused the Kiwis problem with some turn.

Williamson gets a thick outside edge as he plays away from his body but it goes past the short thirdman fielder for a four.

The last ball goes straight on as Williamson is beaten again trying to defend the last ball.

Hardik comes back into the attack in place of his brother Krunal, who has been hit for 38 runs in his three overs.

Hardik is unlucky not to pick a wicket off the first ball as Munro, on 60 from 33 balls, gets a top edge trying to pull a slower bouncer but Khaleel at square puts down a simple catch.

More sloppy fielding from India as this time Vijay Shankar at deep midwicket slides but lets the flick from Munro go through to gift the Kiwis a boundary.

Munro making the Indians pay already as he then blasts a full delivery right back over the bowler's head for a six.

Pandya tries the quicker bouncer as Munro gets the top edge but Kuldeep running to his right makes the dive but is unable to get the ball to give away a four.

Munro slaps the last ball down to long-on for a single to retain strike as he races to 76 from 38 balls, with a strike rate of 200.
