9:40 PM

India vs New Zealand 1st T20I LIVE SCORE: How Kiwis lose first three wickets

Wicket 1: Conway falls early (NZ 0-1)
 

New Zealand’s chase got off to the worst possible start as Arshdeep Singh struck in his opening over. Devon Conway, who has struggled against the left-arm seamer in T20 Internationals, once again failed to settle. Arshdeep angled one full and just outside off, drawing Conway into a loose drive. The thick edge flew low and wide of first slip, but Sanju Samson reacted brilliantly, diving to his left to complete a sharp one-handed catch. Conway departed for a two-ball duck, giving India early control and immediately putting pressure on the visitors’ new opening pair.

 

Wicket 2: Ravindra edged off (NZ 1-2)

Hardik Pandya compounded New Zealand’s problems in the second over. Rachin Ravindra, trying to counter the early movement, stepped out to drive but failed to account for the seam nibble away. The ball took a thick outside edge and flew low to slip, where Abhishek Sharma held on cleanly. Ravindra’s scratchy five-ball stay ended with just one run, leaving New Zealand reeling at 1 for 2 and forcing an early rebuild through Tim Robinson and Glenn Phillips.

 

Wicket 3: Robinson deceived by Varun (NZ 54-3)
 

After Robinson and Phillips added some momentum, including a six off Axar Patel, India struck again at the end of the powerplay. Varun Chakaravarthy, introduced in the seventh over, outfoxed Robinson with flight and dip. The batter charged down the track looking to clear mid-wicket but failed to reach the pitch, mistiming the shot off the inside half. Shivam Dube had all the time in the world to settle under the skier at mid-wicket. Robinson fell for 21 off 15 balls, halting New Zealand’s recovery and swinging the momentum firmly back India’s way.
