Opting to bat first, India’s top order crumbled spectacularly, five batsmen, including prominent players like Virat Kohli, Sarfaraz Khan, KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, and Ravichandran Ashwin, dismissed without scoring.
Captain Rohit Sharma managed to score 2 runs, while Rishabh Pant got 20 and Yashasvi Jaiswal’s 13 were the only double-digit scores.
New Zealand demonstrated the best pace attack, Matt Henry took 5 wickets, and William O’Rourke bowled out 4 cricketers. Cricketer Tim Southee took a wicket and booked humiliation for India.
New Zealand bowlers left India scrambling and Indian fans in shock. The Indian team bowled out in just 31.2 overs, by scoring 42 runs only.
It is one of the most devastating and humiliating day for Indian cricket and fans.
