Thakur strikes; New Zealand lose 2nd wicket

February 08, 2020 09:31

NZ 150-2 (28 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Thakur is back into the attack. Blundell picks a single off an inside edge before Guptill powerfully pulls a short ball over midwicket for a four as New Zealand reach 133 for one in 25 overs.

Jadeja is back into the attack. Guptill and Blundell pick two singles each, to get four runs from the spinner's fifth over.

In the next over, Blundell hammers Thakur straight down the ground past mid-off for a boundary.

But the bowler gets revenge next ball as Blundell looks for the lofted shot over mid-on but fails to get enough elevation and is caught by Saini for 22.

Ross Taylor defends the first two balls he faces before he takes a single off the last ball to keep strike.

A single each to Taylor and Guptill before the former glances the fourth ball from Jadeja through fine leg for a four, followed by another single, to bring up New Zealand's 150, in the 28th over.
