Watch: Kuldeep Yadav startled both Daryl Mitchell and Rohit Sharma with a quicker ball during the 2023 World Cup India-New Zealand clash in Dharamsala.
New Zealand now have 19 wins and two losses as Rohit Sharma opts for Dharamsala. Mohamed Siraj caught Devon Conway for a duck and Mohamed Shami let 17-year-old Will Young through with his first pitch of the 2023 World Cup.
Rachin Ravindra (75) and Darryl Mitchell scored 159 for the third wicket. This is the best partnership against India so far in this tournament.
Both the batsmen targeted Kuldeep Yadav from the beginning, scoring six runs each in two overs and 48 runs in the first five overs. In the sixth game, Ravindra slugged the first pitch and the batter hit a single.
Mitchell tried to sweep the next ball backwards. The ball was too short and too fast (114 km/h, or 70 mph), and the shot had Mitchell on his right shoulder, so it was probably intentional. Rohit was surprised by this and laughed in surprise.
