Ashwin leaves New Zealand in a mess

December 05, 2021 16:18

NZ Inns 2: 87-3 (24 ovs); Target: 540 | Scorecard

Jayant Yadav comes into the attack. Mitchell well forward to keep out the flighted deliveries before he steers the last ball behind square for a couple of runs.

Umesh appeals for leg before wicket but there is an inside edge as India decide against the review.

Infact, it was the bowler Umesh who suggested there was some inside edge else Nicholls was dead in front.

However, replays shows that there was no inside edge and the ball was crashing into the leg stump as Nicholls is lucky to survive.

Nicholls gets an inside edge off the fifth ball for a single and Mitchell pulls the last ball for a four.

Jayant continues as he looks to keep it just outside the off-stump and make use of the rough against left-hander Nicholls, who is happy to play out a maiden over.

Having started off aggressively, Mitchell has settled down nicely now. He has shown great defence, especially against the spinners as he keeps the Indian bowlers at bay.
