Guptill hits fifty to lift New Zealand

February 08, 2020 09:16

NZ 128-1 (24 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Saini is back into the attack. A single to Guptill before the pacer bowls a leg side wide to Blundell, who then drills a full delivery straight back past the bowler for a four.

Saini tries the short ball as Blundell pulls it powerfully through midwicket for another boundary.

In the next over, Jadeja has a huge shout for leg before wicket turned down against Guptill. The umpire is not interested and captain Virat Kohli after discussing with wicketkeeper KL Rahul and bowler Jadeja decides not take the review.

Two balls later, Guptill smashes a short ball from Jadeja through point for a four and keeps strike with one from the last ball.

Infact, replays show that India could have got the wicket of Guptill had they taken the review, with the ball hitting in line and going on to hit the stumps.

Guptill nudges Saini to fine leg for one and Blundell comes down the track and looks to heave the pacer through the leg side but is beaten before he takes one off the fifth ball.

Chahal continues as the Kiwis pick three singles off four balls before Blundell survives a run out chance as Manish Pandey close in on the off-side is unable to collect the ball cleanly.
