Auckland, Sep 2 (Ians) Fast bowler Lockie Ferguson is set to captain New Zealand for the first time in international cricket during the upcoming three-match Odi Series against Bangladesh in Dhaka, said New Zealand Cricket (Nzc) on Saturday.
Ferguson, who recently led the team in tour matches in England, will captain the side in the absence of regular Odi captain Kane Williamson as he continues to recover from a right knee injury, and his deputy Tom Latham, who will miss the series to have time at home before the Icc Cricket World Cup and Test tour to Bangladesh.
“Lockie is an experienced bowler at the international level, and this is an opportunity for him to really lead from the front with not just the bowling group but the team as a whole. He stepped into the role for the warm-up matches in England and led a group, with a lot of moving parts,...

Durham, England, Aug 31 (Ians) Young cricketer Harry Brook did his chances of a late call-up to England’s squad for this year’s Icc Men’s Cricket World Cup squad no harm with a stunning knock against New Zealand in the opening match of their T20I series at Chester-le-Street, here.
Brook was a glaring omission from the preliminary World Cup squad that England named earlier this month and the 24-year-old has reacted well since the news with a string of excellent scores, reports Icc.
The right-hander smashed a century in his last match in England’s domestic T20 competition last week and followed that up with an eye-catching 43* from just 27 deliveries against the Kiwis to help his side clinch a comfortable seven-wicket victory.
England captain Jos Buttler indicated earlier this month that Brook was still an outside chance of earning a place in the final World Cup squad that...

Wellington, Aug 9 (Ians) Tom Latham will lead an experienced Odi squad against England this September, the team’s penultimate series before the Icc Cricket World Cup starting in October in India.
Trent Boult is in line to play his first One Day International in almost a year after being included in the 15-strong squad which also features the Odi return of Kyle Jamieson following a back injury.
Mark Chapman and Jimmy Neesham will miss the four-game series as they await the births of their first children, while Ish Sodhi is also returning home after the T20I series against England to spend time with his family ahead of a busy period of cricket.
Kane Williamson will link up with the side during the England tour to train and continue his rehabilitation following surgery on his ruptured anterior cruciate ligament in April.

Auckland, July 19 (Ians) Uncapped players batting all-rounder Dean Foxcroft and leg-spinner Adi Ashok on Wednesday earned their maiden New Zealand call-ups while pace all-rounder Kyle Jamieson made his comeback to the side for next month’s T20 tours of the UAE and England.
New Zealand are scheduled to play three T20Is against the UAE on August 17, 19 and 20, followed by four games in England from August 30 to September 5.
Jamieson is set to return to international cricket more than a year after sustaining a serious back injury in England last June. On the other hand, Foxcroft and Ashok earned their call-ups off the back of representing New Zealand A and impressive domestic form in the recent season.
Foxcroft, born in South Africa, moved to New Zealand in 2016 and is a newly qualified player for the side, having recently received eligibility approval from the Icc under its “exceptional circumstances” criteria.

Jaipur, May 14 (Ians) Royal Challengers Bangalore (Rcb) won the toss and elected to bat first against Rajasthan Royals (Rr) in an Ipl 2023 match at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, here on Sunday.
Rcb captain Faf du Plessis said Wayne Parnell came in for Josh Hazlewood and Michael Bracewell replaced Wanindu Hasaranga in the playing XI.
“We will have a bat first. The conditions might favor that, looks like a dry wicket. It is very clear from here on for us, that is not a bad thing sometimes. We need to execute better. 3-4 guys are putting their hand up every game, we need a bit more probably to cash in on some good positions. Wins are important, net run rate is not something we can bother about now,” Du Plessis said at the toss.
On the other hand, Rr captain Sanju Samson said Adam Zampa came in for Trent Boult in the playing XI.

New Delhi, March 26 (Ians) Former New Zealand batter Grant Elliot believes several rookie bowlers like pacer Henry Shipley will need huge performances to make the cut for New Zealands 15-man squad for the Men’s Odi World Cup, to be held in India in October-November.
At Eden Park in Auckland on Saturday, Shipley took career-best figures of 5/6 in his first Odi at his home ground as New Zealand bowled out Sri Lanka for 76 in 19.1 overs to win the series opener by a whopping 198 runs.
“Henry Shipley will be an interesting one to watch. He had that experience in India and it will be very fascinating to see how he and Blair Tickner actually scrub up because that was a tough series, I was over there and those wickets were … flat. So that was a tough introduction and I think they’ll enjoy bowling in New Zealand conditions a lot more,...

New Delhi, March 25 (Ians) Right-hander batter Rajat Patidar, who had an impressive outing for Royal Challengers Bangalore (Rcb) in Ipl 2022, is doubtful for at least the first half of the upcoming season due to a heel injury.
According to an ESPNcricinfo report, Patidar is currently undergoing rehab at the Nca in Bengaluru and has been advised to rest for the next three weeks. An Mri scan will decide his participation in the second half of the tournament.
“He picked up the injury prior to joining the camp, and will need an Nca clearance before linking up with Royal Challengers,” the report said.
The 29-year old batter’s absence could force Rcb to rethink their batting combination. With him in the mix, Virat Kohli would continue to open the batting with Faf du Plessis. However, it will be now interesting to see whether Kohli bats at number three with one of...

Auckland, March 25 (Ians) Right-hand medium pacer Henry Shipley claimed a five-wicket haul as New Zealand beat Sri Lanka by 198 runs to go 1-0 up in the three-match Odi series. This is the biggest win by Black Caps over Sri Lanka (in terms of runs) in men’s ODIs.
Shipley’s brilliant effort of 5-31 and two wickets apiece claimed by Daryl Mitchell (2-12) and Blair Tickner (2-20) helped New Zealand bowl out Sri Lanka for 76 in 19.5 overs after posting 274 in 49.3 overs on being asked to bat first.
With this win, New Zealand have topped the Icc Men’s Cricket World Cup Super League standings. They have 160 points from 22 games. If they manage a 3-0 sweep in the series, they will overtake Australia, to go No. 1 in the Icc Men’s Odi Team Rankings.

Auckland, March 24 (Ians) Rachin Ravindra and Chad Bowes will make their Odi debuts for New Zealand in the first match of the three-match series Sri Lanka at Eden Park here on Saturday, Odi skipper Tom Latham has revealed.
Latham said on Friday that Bowes will open the innings with Finn Allen while spin-bowling allrounder Rachin Ravindra will be slotted in at number 7. The Day/Night limited overs match is raising money for the Red Cross Nz Disaster Relief Fund.
New Zealand start as the favourite after blanking Sri Lanka 2-0 in the preceding Test series and preventing the Islanders from making it to World Test Championship Final to be played on June 7 at The Oval in London.
New Zealand dominated the Odi series but are going into the limited overs series after being blanked 3-0 by India in November 2022. They had reached India after winning 2-1 in the preceding series in Pakistan.

Ahmedabad, Feb 1 (Ians) A sensational maiden T20I century by Shubman Gill (126 not out off 63) followed by a dominating performance by the bowlers led India to a massive 168-run win in the third and final T20I and 2-1 series victory over New Zealand at the Narendra Modi Stadium, here on Wednesday.
Gill, who didn’t have much success in the first two games, put on a batting show, smashing the Black Caps’ bowlers all-round the world’s largest cricket stadium. Apart from Gill, the likes of Rahul Tripathi (44 off 22), Hardik Pandya (30 off 17) and Suryakumar Yadav (24 off 13) also made vital contributions with the bat.
Chasing a mammoth total, New Zealand were off to a disastrous start as Arshdeep Singh and Hardik Pandya ripped through their top order. A couple of superb reflex catches by Suryakumar Yadav at slips also helped India’s cause.

New Delhi, Feb 1 (Ians) Ahead of the third T20 against New Zealand, former batter Wasim Jaffer backed Yuzvendra Chahal to retain his place in the playing XI as the visiting side seemed to have struggled against spin bowling in the previous match.
India had brought in Chahal in the second T20I in Lucknow, where the star spinner only bowled two overs in the low-scoring contest and claimed the wicket of Finn Allen.
“It would be better to have Yuzvendra Chahal as New Zealand struggle against spinners and if there is a wrist-spinner, India must utilize it. As I mentioned previously, Umran Malik struggles in T20 cricket. He is yet to learn the variations needed to succeed in this format. So, in that way, Chahal is a better option,” Jaffer told ESPNcricinfo.
Jaffer also suggested a change in top-order batting and said that Indian think tank can replace Shubman Gill...

Lucknow, Jan 29 (Ians) A sensational performance by the bowlers followed by Suryakumar Yadav’s hard-fought knock guided India to a nervy six-wicket win over New Zealand in the second T20I and levelled the three-match series 1-1 on a spin-friendly pitch at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, here on Sunday.
The low-scoring encounter also witnessed an unusual feat as not a single six was hit on 239 legal deliveries bowled during the second T20I.
Spinners spun the web and took the first five wickets of New Zealand, who never got the momentum throughout the batting innings. The Indian pacers then did a brilliant finishing job as the visitors were restricted to 99/8 in 20 overs.
Arshdeep Singh (2-7) was the most successful bowler for India while Yuzvendra Chahal (1-4), Kuldeep Yadav (1-17), Deepak Hooda (1-17), Washington Sundar (1/17) and Hardik Pandya (1/25) also picked vital wickets at regular intervals.

Spinners spun the web and took the first five wickets of New Zealand, who never got the momentum throughout the batting innings. The Indian pacers then did a brilliant finishing job as the visitors were restricted to 99/8 in 20 overs.

Lucknow, Jan 29 (Ians) New Zealand captain Mitchell Santner won the toss and opted to bat first against India in the second T20I of the three-match series at Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, here on Sunday.
New Zealand, who are leading the series 1-0, didn’t make any changes to their side.
“We are gonna have a bat. The stats say that it’s challenging to chase here. We’ll try to get some runs on the board and see what it does. We had a tough one-day series, it was nice to bounce back with a win. Different guys stepping up at different times is always nice,” said Santner at the toss.

Ranchi, Jan 28 (Ians) New Zealand all-rounder Daryl Mitchell lauded captain Mitchell Santner for his economical 2/11 in the first T20I against India at Jsca International Stadium, saying the left-arm spinner is one of the best tweakers in white-ball cricket at the moment.
In his four overs, Santner, the New Zealand captain, bowled a mesmerising spell of 2/11 in four overs, including 18 dot balls and bowling a maiden to an in-form Suryakumar Yadav in the final over of power-play.
He got a lot of grip and turned the ball square while being accurate to take out Shubman Gill and Deepak Hooda on a Ranchi pitch which heavily favoured spinners as New Zealand got their first win of the tour through a 21-run victory and took a 1-0 lead in the three-game series.
“He’s one of the best spinners in world cricket with the white ball at the moment. He keeps proving his class.

Ranchi, Jan 27 (Ians) Daryl Mitchell and Devon Conway’s fine half-centuries followed by captain Mitchell Santner’s superb spin show guided New Zealand to 21-run win over in the first T20I and a 1-0 lead in the three-match series at the Jsca International Stadium, here on Friday.
After Mitchell and Conway hit 59 not out and 52 respectively in powering New Zealand to 176/6 in 20 overs on a spin-friendly pitch, including the former taking 27 runs off the final over against Arshdeep Singh, India lost their top three batters in powerplay as Santner, Michael Bracewell and Ish Sodhi made the most out of turn while controlling their trajectory, line and length well to give visitors’ their first win of the tour.
For India, there was a 68-run stand off 51 balls for the fourth wicket between Suryakumar Yadav and captain Hardik Pandya, followed by Washington Sundar notching up his maiden T20I fifty. But...

Ranchi, Jan 27 (Ians) All-rounder Daryl Mitchell and opener Devon Conway smashed fine half-centuries and propelled New Zealand to 176/6 against India in the first T20I of the three-match series at the Jsca International Stadium, here on Friday.
Conway made a 35-ball 52, laced with seven fours and a six and attacked well against the spinners. On the other hand, Mitchell opened up in the later half of the innings to finish on 59 not out off 30 balls, hitting three fours and fives sixes. He also took 27 runs off the final over by Arshdeep Singh to inject some momentum in the innings after losing wickets in quick succession in the middle overs.
For India, Washington Sundar and Kuldeep Yadav gave away a combined 56 runs while picking three wickets, while the fast bowlers gave away 119 runs despite picking as many wickets as their spin counterparts.

Ranchi, Jan 27 (Ians) India captain Hardik Pandya won the toss and elected to bowl first against New Zealand in the first T20I of the three-match series at the Jsca International Stadium in Ranchi, here on Friday.
“Looks like a very good track. The reason behind the decision to bowl first is that the ground is going to get quite wet, I can see some dew now itself. Just go out there and play the best cricket we know.”
“It’s a young side, everyone’s ready to go. We will focus on playing good cricket. Playing the ODIs before T20Is makes it easy to pass on. For a lot of them it is an experience just being in the team. Yuzi (Yuzvendra Chahal), Mukesh (Kumar), Jitesh (Sharma) and Prithvi (Shaw) miss out,” Hardik said at the toss.

New Delhi, Jan 26 (Ians) Former New Zealand cricketer Craig Cumming believes young opener Finn Allen is “not producing enough” runs currently following his struggles in recent Odi series against India.
Allen, 23, debuted for New Zealand in ODIs in 2022 and notched up some impressive knocks against Ireland and West Indies. But of late, he hasn’t been at his best in the format, making scores of 29, 1 and 25 in the tour of Pakistan, followed by registering scores of 40 and consecutive ducks in the 3-0 series defeat in India.
“I’m concerned around the style of cricketers we’re trying to produce. You’ve just got to look at (Tuesday) night and when it comes to cricketers within our own country and the way we’re trying to produce it, I want to produce Devon Conway’s, I want to produce Kane Williamson’s; the guys that have got craft and can bat...

Dubai, Jan 25 (Ians) South Africa’s left-arm fast-bowling all-rounder Marco Jansen beat strong contenders like India’s Arshdeep Singh, Afghanistan’s Ibrahim Zadran and New Zealand’s Finn Allen to win the Icc Mens Emerging Cricketer of the Year award for 2022.
Jansen picked 36 wickets in eight Test matches during 2022 for South Africa. He had success on tours of England and Australia, averaging just 13.11 and 13.33 respectively. His nine Test wickets in New Zealand came at a respectable 28.55 to boot, as he contributed with the bat for Dean Elgar’s side.
The left-arm pacer made four appearances for South Africa across the two white-ball formats, showing early glimpses of his quality. He claimed Shreyas Iyer in his only T20I game, and a pair of wickets in an Odi match against Bangladesh.

Indore, Jan 25 (Ians) New Zealand opener Devon Conway, whose superb 100-ball 138 went in vain as India won the third Odi to clean sweep the series, said his team’s failure to build more partnerships and putting the Indian bowlers under pressure led to their defeat at the Holkar Stadium here.
Chasing a mammoth total of 385/9l, New Zealand got off to the worst possible start as Hardik Pandya removed Finn Allen for a duck in the very first over. However, the early wicket didn’t affect Conway and Henry Nicholls much as they raised 106 runs for the second wicket before Nicholls was out.
Conway and Daryl Mitchell then took the score to 184. But Shardul Thakur scalped three back-to-back wickets of Mitchell (24), Tom Latham (0) and Glenn Phillips (5) to swing the contest back into India’s favour, leaving New Zealand struggling at 200/5 after 27.4 overs. They were eventually bowled out for 295 in 41.2 overs.

Indore, Jan 25 (Ians) After India’s thumping 90-run win in the third and final Odi against New Zealand, star all-rounder Hardik Pandya said that he is enjoying bowling with the new ball and is also satisfied with the swing of his deliveries.
In absence of Siraj and Shami, Hardik opened the bowling for India and got immediate success as he removed Finn Allen for 0 in the very first over of the New Zealand innings. He didn’t get another wicket (1-37) but impressed with his lengths and lines, especially with the new ball, at the Holkar Cricket Stadium on Tuesday.
Prior to the ODIs against the Black Caps, the all-rounder had also bowled with the new ball during the Sri Lanka T20Is and had impressed everyone with his swing.

Indore, Jan 24 (Ians) A fighting century by Devon Conway (138 off 100) went in vain as India thrashed New Zealand by 90 runs in the third Odi to sweep the three-match series 3-0 at the Holkar Cricket Stadium, here on Tuesday.
With this convincing win, India rose to the top of the Icc Men’s Odi Team Rankings. England, who had gained the top spot merely three days back following New Zealand’s loss to India in the second Odi, are now in second position, with New Zealand slipping to the fourth spot.
Fantastic centuries by Shubman Gill (112 off 78) and Rohit Sharma (101 off 85) along with Hardik Pandya’s vital fifty (54 off 38) powered India to a massive 385/9 in the stipulated 50 overs.

Eye-pleasing centuries by Gill (112 off 78) and Rohit (101 off 85) along with Hardik Pandya’s vital fifty (54 off 38) powered India to a massive 385/9 in the stipulated 50 overs, after they were invited to bat first.

Indore, Jan 24 (Ians) New Zealand captain Tom Latham won the toss and opted to field first in the third and final Odi against India at the Holkar Cricket Stadium, here on Tuesday.
New Zealand, who are seeking the consolation win, made one change in their playing XI with Jacob Duffy replacing Henry Shipley.
“We are gonna have a bowl, it is a good surface and it will get better under lights. We have put on good performances in the past and will look to put another good performance here. It will be high-scoring and the nature of the boundaries are short. We have got one change, Jacob Duffy comes in for Henry Shipley,” said Latham at the toss.
On the other hand, India, who have taken an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series, made two changes as Umran Malik and Yuzvendra Chahal come in for Mohammed Siraj and Mohammed Shami.

New Delhi, Jan 23 (Ians) Former India left-arm fast-bowler Irfan Pathan believes that the current side has to focus on its variety in bowling line-up on different pitches, pointing out that the bowling attack has lacked heat in crucial matches in previous editions of the World Cups.
India are building up for the Odi World Cup, to be hosted by them in October and November, with a 3-0 series win over Sri Lanka and clinching the series against New Zealand at home. In the absence of Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami and Mohammed Siraj have emerged as mainstays in the pace bowling line-up.
“India need to focus on bowling. It is very important to plan what combination we should be playing and which bowlers should get a chance, depending on how they make the most of the pitches. The biggest problem here, is that the pitches are flat and our bowling is...

Auckland, Jan 12 (Ians) Left-arm swing bowler Ben Lister is set for a potential international debut after being selected in the New Zealand T20I squad to tour India for three matches later this month.
Left-arm spin all-rounder Mitchell Santner will lead the squad that features an experienced T20 core including nine players from last year’s Icc Men’s T20 World Cup squad, along with a range of players newer to international cricket, including Lister.
Selector Gavin Larsen noted in an official statement that Santner had impressed in his previous ten opportunities as captain of the New Zealand T20I team. “Mitch is a leader in our white ball teams and has captained the T20 side in India before. His experience in Indian conditions will be invaluable leading this group.”

Karachi, Jan 8 (Ians) New Zealand have called up pace-bowling all-rounder Doug Bracewell to replace the injured Matt Henry in their Odi squads for the upcoming 50-overs series against Pakistan and India.
Henry was ruled out of the tour with an abdominal strain, which he sustained on the final day of the second Test in Karachi, with the injury requiring two to four weeks of rest and rehabilitation.
Bracewell, who has 68 international caps to his name, most recently featured in the home Odi series against the Netherlands last April, the New Zealand Cricket informed in a media release on Sunday.
The 32-year-old has been in good form with bat and ball on the domestic scene for the Central Stags, starting the season as one of the leading wicket-takers in the Plunket Shield and more recently showed his ability with the bat, making key contributions for the Stags in the Super Smash.

New Delhi, Dec 28 (Ians) India’s young left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh was on Wednesday nominated for the Icc Men’s Emerging Cricketer of the Year 2022 award. Apart from him, South Africas left-arm pace all-rounder Marco Jansen, Afghanistan opener Ibrahim Zadran and New Zealand opener Finn Allen have been nominated as well.
Arshdeep has been the find for India in T20Is this year, stepping up admirably in Jasprit Bumrah’s absence to pick ten wickets in the Men’s T20 World Cup in Australia. Since his T20I debut against England in July this year, he has picked 33 wickets in 21 matches at an average of 18.12, strike rate of 13.30 and economy rate of 8.17.
The left-arm pacer impressed everyone with his control, calm composure in death overs and ability to deliver pin-point yorkers at will.

Christchurch, Dec 18 (Ians) New Zealand on Sunday named Odi squads for the tours of Pakistan and India with two different captains — Kane Williamson and Tom Latham — named to lead their country in the two different series.
Williamson will lead the New Zealand team for the ODIs in Pakistan while Latham will take over the leadership for the India series with the former rested.
Leg-spinner Ish Sodhi and middle-order batter Henry Nicholls were recalled to the Odi squad named for the two tours with a maiden call-up for all-rounder Henry Shipley.
Former Black Caps player Luke Ronchi will be the head coach for the three-match Odi series against India in January with Gary Stead and Shane Jurgensen flying back after the Pakistan series.
Shipley, the 26-year-old all-rounder is a tall, right-arm quick and middle-order batter and has been in impressive form in domestic cricket.

Auckland, Dec 14 (Ians) Back in the fray in the Indian Premier League (Ipl) auction after a year’s gap, New Zealand pacer Kyle Jamieson is looking forward to being picked up in the upcoming auctions for the 2023 edition and hoping to ride on a great performance in India to make it back to the national team for the busy season next year.
Jamieson, who is returning from a back injury, was purchased in the 2021 auctions by the Royal Challengers Bangalore for Rs 15 crore — the highest bid for a New Zealand player and the fourth-highest in Ipl history. However, the 27-year-old had struggled to meet the price tag when playing just nine of Rcb’s 15 games.
The tall quick had opted out of the 2022 Ipl to spend more time with his family and be fresh for New Zealand duties as 24 Nz cricketers had put themselves up for auction and top guns like Kane Williamson,...

Christchurch, Nov 30 (Ians) Former India head coach Ravi Shastri praised young New Zealand opener Finn Allen for capitalising on the loose deliveries from the visitors’ bowling attack after taking time to settle at the crease in the abandoned third Odi at Hagley Oval.
Allen, an ultra-aggressive right-handed opener, was quiet for the first three overs in New Zealand’s chase of 220. But after that, he couldn’t be kept quiet, clipping a down leg delivery from Arshdeep Singh for his first boundary of the match.
After that, there was no stopping Allen in getting boundaries and he got his fifty when he flat-batted a six over long-off off Washington Sundar. After pulling Umran Malik through fine leg in the 17th over, Allen tried to reach out to a short ball.
But he toe-ended a cut to cover, ending the 97-run opening partnership as he fell for 57 off 54 balls, his fourth fifty in the 50-over format.

Christchurch, Nov 30 (Ians) Finn Allen and Devon Conway had a 97-run opening stand to get New Zealand’s chase of 220 against India start on a bright note. Pacer Umran Malik broke it by taking out Allen, but rain forced the third and final Odi between India and New Zealand at Hagley Oval on Wednesday to be called off.
When rain arrived, New Zealand were at 104/1 in 18 overs and Dls calculations showed that they were ahead by 50 runs. But to constitute a full match, 20 overs were needed to be completed in the second innings. But with rain washing out the prospect of playing out the remaining two overs for a result, New Zealand clinched the series 1-0 ahead.

Auckland, Nov 25 (Ians) Tom Latham reiterated on Friday why he’s a dependable middle-order batter for New Zealand by striking his seventh Odi hundred to seal a seven-wicket victory over India in the series opener at Eden Park on Friday.
After Shreyas Iyer top-scored with 80 off 76 balls while captain Shikhar Dhawan and Shubman Gill struck 72 and 50 respectively in their fourth hundred-plus stand as an opening pair this year to propel India to a challenging 306/7, New Zealand were in trouble at 88/3 in 19.5 overs.
But Latham took the game away from India, hitting an inexperienced bowling attack all over the park to end up unbeaten on a career-best score of 145 off 104 balls, laced with 19 fours and five sixes.
He also stitched an unbeaten 221-run stand off 165 balls with skipper Kane Williamson, who was the perfect ally and was unconquered at 94 not out to chase the total with 17 balls remaining. For India, they...

Napier, Nov 23 (Ians) The steady rise of India’s young left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh continued as he picked his best-ever figures in T20I cricket with 4/37 in four overs in the third and final T20I against New Zealand at McLean Park in Napier.
While Mohammed Siraj rattled New Zealand batters with his hard lengths, Arshdeep was bringing out all the tools he had in his armoury to outclass the hosts’ batting line-up. He took out Daryl Mitchell with a potent bouncer and then dismissed Ish Sodhi for a first-ball duck with a pin-point yorker.
Apart from this, Arshdeep had taken out openers Finn Allen and Devon Conway too. He also showed his ability to bowl the knuckle-ball too. He credited senior pacers in the Indian team for helping him with adding more variety to his bowling skills.
“It’s all from the guidance from the experienced players in the team.

Napier, Nov 22 (Ians) India clinched the three-match series 1-0 against New Zealand after the third T20I between the two teams ended in a tie via Duckworth-Lewis method following rain interruption at the McClean Park, here on Tuesday.
The Hardik Pandya-led India had won the second T20I by 65 runs against New Zealand in Mount Maunganui after the first game between the two sides at Wellington was washed out without a ball bowled.
After New Zealand won the toss and opted to bat first, Indian pacers Mohammed Siraj (4/17) and Arshdeep Singh (4/37) produced the sensational bowling performances and scalped four wickets four wickets each to bowl out Black Caps for 160 despite fighting half-centuries by Devon Conway and Glenn Phillips

Napier, Nov 22 (Ians) Indian pacers Mohammed Siraj (4/17) and Arshdeep Singh (4/37) produced the sensational bowling performances and scalped four wickets four wickets each to bowl out New Zealand for 160 in the rain-delayed third and final T20I despite fighting half-centuries by Devon Conway and Glenn Phillips at the McClean Park, here on Tuesday.
Black Caps were in a comfortable position with Conway and Phillips going strong but as soon as that partnership was broken it was a procession as both Siraj and Arshdeep had excellent outings with the ball especially at death overs.
After New Zealand won the toss and opted to bat first, it was who Arshdeep provided India with an early breakthrough, packing Finn Allen for 3 in the second over of the innings.
Conway and Mark Chapman, who came in as Kane Williamson’s replacement, steadied things before Siraj removed Chapman for 12, leaving 44-2 after 5.2 overs.

Napier, Nov 22 (Ians) New Zealand captain Tim Southee won the toss and opted to bat first against India in the third and final T20I which was delayed due to rain at the McClean Park, here on Tuesday.
New Zealand made one change in the playing XI as Mark Chapman came in place of regular captain Kane Williamson, who is missing this game due to a pre-arranged medical appointment.
“We will bat. Looks like a pitch where we can put the runs on the board. We can’t really control the weather, but the history of this ground suggests good batting conditions. Our bowling the other night wasn’t the best, but credit to Sky. Mark Chapman comes in straightaway. You look back at places where we can improve as a team,” said Southee at the toss.

Mount Maunganui, Nov 20 (Ians) Young New Zealand opener Finn Allen feels the prospect of going up against India in the ongoing white-ball series is pretty exciting for him and his team. Allen’s sparking show and his ability to clear boundaries has meant New Zealand have preferred to stick with him ahead of veteran opener Martin Guptill.
“It is massive. We did not get to play them in the (T20) World Cup and it is pretty exciting to go up against them in the home series. Unfortunately, there was no play at Wellington, and hopefully we are getting some action here. It is going to be an exciting series with a sold-out crowd at the Mount coming in as well,” said Allen in a pre-match video provided by Prime Video.
Allen showed his big-hitting prowess when he hit a blistering 43 against Australia in Men’s T20 World Cup in Sydney.

Mount Maunganui, Nov 20 (Ians) New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson has won the toss and elected to bowl first against India in the second T20I at Bay Oval, Mount Maunganui on Sunday.
After the T20I series opener was washed out without a ball being bowled at Sky Stadium, Wellington, on Friday, there is a forecast of rain in the second T20I. But as of now, the atmosphere in the stadium has been dry with overcast skies.
Williamson said the pitch and overcast conditions prompted him to bowl first, with Adam Milne coming in for Trent Boult in the playing eleven. “It’s been under covers for a large part, and also potentially some weather around. Always a great occasion when you get to play against India,” he said.
India captain Hardik Pandya feels the batters will have to assess the conditions early to post a good first-innings total.

Mount Maunganui, Nov 19 (Ians) After rain caused the first T20I between India and New Zealand at Sky Stadium to be washed out, it may again play a spoilsport when the two teams will be playing in the second match at Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui on Sunday.
Though New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson was hopeful of sunshine coming in Sunday’s sell-out match at his hometown, that may not be the case. With rain predicted for all day and precipitation levels between 40-97 per cent, there is a possibility of rain again halting India and New Zealand’s quest for rebuilding their T20I sides.
One would be hoping that Rishabh Pant gets a decent run as an opener against New Zealand. Pant, who burst on the scene with blistering performances in Ipl 2016 just after catching everyone’s eye with his exploits in U19 World Cup earlier that year in Bangladesh,...

Wellington, Nov 18 (Ians) New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson believes that there will be plenty of chances for players in the side to shine during their white-ball series against India. In the absence of veterans Martin Guptill and Trent Boult, New Zealand are aiming to give opportunities to young opener Finn Allen and pacer Adam Milne.
“I’m sure there will be plenty of opportunities for (New Zealand) guys to shine. The likes of Adam Milne were in the T20 World Cup squad but didn’t get an opportunity, so this is a good time to get them some game time. Always nice for them to get some game time and keep developing as cricketers and test themselves against the best,” said Williamson to broadcasters after the first T20I was abandoned due to rain at Wellington.
Williamson also felt that the young players in the Indian T20I set-up will be big stars in future.

Wellington, Nov 18 (Ians) The T20I series opener between New Zealand and India at Sky Stadium, Wellington has been washed out due to persistent rain on Friday, without a ball being bowled and the toss was not even held.
As per the weather forecast for Wellington, there was 90-100 per cent rain forecasted during the match time, which led to covers remaining on the pitch all the time. Though rain stopped for a few minutes, it came back again, heavier than it was, leading to players indulging in a session of football-volleyball indoors.
The latest cut-off time for the match to begin was 9:46pm local time, with a minimum of five overs per side needed to constitute an official T20I match. But heavy rain washed out that prospect as well, leading to Friday’s match being abandoned.
India and New Zealand will now move towards the second match of the series,...

Wellington, Nov 17 (Ians) After being beaten in the semifinals of the T20 World Cup in Australia, a new-look India will be back in action in the shortest format against New Zealand in the T20I series opener at Sky Stadium in Wellington on Friday.
With stand-in head coach Vvs Laxman insisting that the Hardik Pandya-led side, without many regular stars, will be looking to play fearless and flexible cricket during the series, it also kickstarts the road towards the 2024 T20 World Cup.
After going out of the tournament in the Super 12 stage in 2021, India’s adopted an ultra-attacking approach with the bat, which gave them results in the bilateral series. But by the time T20 World Cup 2022 came in Australia, they were back to conservative batting approach, especially in the first six overs, which paled badly in comparison to England’s swashbuckling play with both bat and ball, eventually...

Auckland, Nov 15 (Ians) New Zealand have left out two of their most experienced players — opener Martin Guptill and left-arm quick Trent Boult — for their white-ball series at home against India, with Kane Williamson continuing to lead the side in the three T20Is and three Odi series beginning at Wellington on November 18.
Following New Zealand’s loss at the semifinal stage of the 2022 T20 World Cup in Australia and their runners-up finish in the previous edition of the tournament in the UAE last year, New Zealand Cricket’s (Nzc) transition into a new era has commenced with the duo being left out and rising star Finn Allen primed to face Rohit Sharma’s side for the first time after being confirmed in both the white-ball squads for the fixture.
The Kiwis have opted to use 23-year-old Allen ahead of Guptill at the top of the order in recent times. Boult,...
