India trashed New Zealand in the first ODI. Indian star batter Virat Kohli has scored 93 runs in 91 balls and missed his century.
New Zealand need not worry about who will bowl the 50th, because KL Rahul has ensured the match won’t go that far. Scoops a Clarke offcutter over short fine for four with nine required off nine.
But what a treat for this new stadium in Vadodara. A game dominated and won by India, with a Virat Kohli special thrown in, and forced into an exciting finish by seven balls of hell from Kyle Jamieson. It was one of the top-quality matchas. It was a tough chance by.
Adithya at short fine leg after Washington miscues a no-look (or can’t-turn) pull off Foulkes. What a strange contest, this. India needed 22 off 22 when Washington walked in, and they’ve been getting a single every ball. They need 12 off 12 now, with Clarke to bowl the 49th and either a spinner or part-timer to bowl the 50th.
On the other hand, Harshit Rana scored 29 runs in 23 balls. He trashed two fours and 1 six. He enjoyed his batting when he got his job; it was an absolute thriller. While KL Rahul and Harshit Rana have 15 runs in 17 balls. But it was an absolutely dangerous ball by Zak Foulkes, a ranna pull, and the ball travels through deep midwicket to Daryl Mitchell’s lap.
While Kyle Jamieson took four wickets with an economy of 4.10. While in the first powerplay India scored 48 runs and lost one wicket, and in the second powerplay india scored 191 runs with the loss of three wickets. In 16.1, India has scored 100 runs in 97 balls and given 11.
During the Drinks, india have scored 113 runs, losing one wicket in 18 overs. Shubman Gill scored 36 runs, and Kohli scored 40 runs at that time. Virat Kohli hit a six in the first 20 balls. Kohli started roteing the strike and put New Zealand under pressure.
Shreyas Iyer is one of the top quality batters and has a wide range of skills at number 4, and he is the most valuable player for india and can hit the target very well.
Indian Captain Shubman Gill said he also feels good, especially when he is cheating, and staying in the present is one of the most essential things, especially for Players. He also added that Kohli makes batting look so easy, and it is tough to replicate him. Further, he also said Arshdeep was well in the last series; Siraj wasn’t. Siraj was absent there.
Washington has a side strain and will go for a scan. Hence, it was a tight game. Kohli was brilliant, Phillip outstanding in the field. It will be an absolute thriller for the next game for the second ODI.
