  • ‘World Class Team Going Up Against Us’: William O’Rourke’s Honest Remark After NZ Restricts IND At 462 | cricket news

    New Zealand are a mere 107 runs away from registering a rare Test victory in India, but pacer William O’Rourke said it will not be a cakewalk for them despite the modest nature of the target. The Kiwis bowled India out for 462 in their second innings with O’Rourke and fellow pacer Matt Henry sharing six wickets equally among them.

    “I wouldn’t say it’s an easy win from here. We’ve got a world-class team going up against us. But we’ve got to be confident going out there tomorrow,” said O’Rourke during the post-day. press meet.

    “Hopefully, for our sake the rain stays away and we get a chance to have a crack at it,” he added. O’Rourke said his first outing in India has been enjoyable so far because of the pace and bounce the Chinnaswamy Stadium offered.

    “My first time here so probably had a little bit more bounce, a bit more pace than what we probably expected coming over here which obviously suits a bowler like me,” he said.

    It was evident in the way he dismissed Virat Kohli in the first innings with a steep climber onto the star batter’s body, which he jabbed to Glenn Phillips at gully. O’Rourke made a special mention about Kohli’s wicket.

    “It’s obviously pretty special getting someone so great, one of the greats of our game, out like that. Obviously, you grow up watching those guys. So, to come here and take that wicket, it’s probably right up there.”

    The 23-year-old pacer said Sarfaraz Khan (150) and Rishabh Pant (99) put a lot of pressure on the Kiwis while adding 177 runs for the fourth wicket. “I’ve been pretty hot and cold with the ball. Pant and Sarfaraz have batted very well for a long time, but that second new ball started doing a little bit for us.

    “So, good to Timmy (Southee) getting that first breakthrough (Sarfaraz) and then lucky enough to get a chop (Pant) there to sort of give us a bit of momentum going through,” he noted.

    O’Rourke also thanked Kyle Jamieson for being his mentor. Jamieson is currently recuperating from a back stress fracture and is not expected to comeback until early next year at least. “Kyle’s been a bit in the background. So, learning from him and, obviously, he’s had a hell of a start to his international career and he’s one of the best bowlers in the world,” he added.

  • IND vs NZ First Test: NZ Need 107 Runs To Win On Final Day | cricket news

    Sarfaraz Khan struck a majestic 150 while Rishabh Pant made a brisk 99 as India were all out for 462 in their second innings, setting New Zealand a target of 107 on day four of the opening Test here on Saturday.

    Just when New Zealand came out to bat late in the final session, rain brought an early end to the day’s play with the visitors playing just four balls in the second innings, with openers Tom Latham and Devon Conway yet to open their accounts.

    Sarfaraz’s maiden hundred and Pant’s innings offered hope for India, but their dismissals led to a swift decline for the hosts. Resuming at 438 for six after tea, India lost their final four wickets — Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandra Ashwin, Jasprit Bumrah, and Mohammed Siraj — in quick succession, ending their innings in 99.3 overs.

    At tea, India were at 438 for six, holding an 82-run lead. Due to rain, there was a nearly two-hour delay, including a 40-minute lunch break, while India had previously trailed New Zealand by 12 runs in their second innings.

    India were all out for just 46 in their first innings, while New Zealand responded with 402.

    Brief scores: India 46 & 462 in 99.3 overs (Rohit Sharma 52, Virat Kohli 70, Sarfaraz Khan 150, Rishabh Pant 99; Ajaz Patel 2/100, William O’Rourke 3/92, Matt Henry 3/102 ) vs New Zealand 402 & 0/0 in 0.4 overs.

  • ‘This Time, It Was Virat’: Rohit Sharma’s Big Reveal After Virat Kohli’s Duck In IND vs NZ First Test | cricket news

    According to Indian skipper Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli took the onus to bat at number three position in the first Test against New Zealand at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. After a gap of eight years, Kohli walked out to bat at number 3 and was snared for a nine-ball duck against William O’Rourke.

    Kohli has been going through a torrid run while batting at number three as he could only score 97 runs from six matches at an average of 16.16.

    “Yes, he is a local boy. So he has to bat at 3? (laughs). After a long time, KL Rahul has found a spot at No. 6. We want to make him bat there. The experienced players are the ones who have to take up more responsibility. This time, it was Virat. He was the one who was ready to do that,” Rohit said in the post-match press conference.

    “We asked him whether he could bat at No. 3. Sarfaraz, we also wanted to give him the position that he usually bats — 4, 5 and 6. We didn’t want to change Rishabh and KL. Hence, Sarfaraz went At No. 4 and Virat batted at No. 3. It’s a good sign.

    The Indian team had a terrible run in the first innings of the Bengaluru Test. After choosing to bat first, the host nation were restricted to just 46 runs in 31.2 overs. Apart from Yashasvi Jaiswal (13) and Rishabh Pant (20), none of the Indian batters went into double digits.

    “We thought it wouldn’t help seamers much after the first session or so. There wasn’t much grass either. We thought it would be flat. It was a misjudgement and I couldn’t read the pitch well,” Rohit added.

    India Playing 11: Rohit Sharma(c), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Sarfaraz Khan, Rishabh Pant(w), Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj.

    New Zealand Playing 11: Tom Latham(c), Devon Conway, Will Young, Rachin Ravindra, Daryl Mitchell, Tom Blundell(w), Glenn Phillips, Matt Henry, Tim Southee, Ajaz Patel, William ORourke.

  • IND vs NZ: Suryakumar Yadav lost his focus, got run out after scoring 2 runs, Virat Kohli is not responsible

    Suryakumar Yadav

    Suryakumar Yadav got a chance in the playing eleven after four matches of the league stage in the ICC World Cup 2023, but Suryakumar could not live up to the expectations. He was run out on a personal score of just two runs. Virat Kohli was at the other end. But Virat cannot be blamed for Surya’s runout.

    Virat Kohli

    Suryakumar Yadav was run out in the 34th over. That was Trent Boult’s ball. Surya played a shot on the fifth ball of the 34th over. This shot towards cover reached Santner’s hands and he displayed brilliant fielding and ran out Surya.

    Virat Kohli

    There was some problem in the coordination between Virat Kohli and Surya and Surya sacrificed his wicket. Although after this Kohli was also seen regretting a lot, but it was not Kohli’s fault in this. Both the batsmen gathered at almost the same end and then Surya ran back, but could not reach the crease.

    India vs New Zealand

    Suryakumar Yadav got a chance in this fifth match of the league. Surya seemed fully prepared to capitalize on this opportunity, but he could not play any big shot and returned to the pavilion after being run out on the score of two. It is expected that Hardik Pandya will return in the next match against England, in such a situation it is difficult for Surya to get a chance again.

    Virat Kohli

    Now let’s talk about the match. On the basis of Virat Kohli’s inning of 95 runs after Mohammed Shami’s 5 wickets, India defeated New Zealand in the World Cup match after 20 years. India registered its fifth consecutive win and strengthened its claim for a place in the semi-finals.

    With this victory, India has strengthened its position at the top with 10 points from five wins in five matches. New Zealand is in second place with eight points from four wins in five matches.

Earlier, apart from playing an inning of 130 runs in 127 balls with the help of five sixes and nine fours, he added 159 runs for the third wicket with Rachin Ravindra (75 runs, 87 balls, six fours, one six).

    Virat Kohli

    Despite this the team was out for 273 runs in 50 overs. The partnership between Mitchell and Ravindra is the biggest partnership for any wicket on this ground.

New Zealand’s batsmen looked under pressure for the first time during the entire tournament. The team could score only 68 runs in the last 13 overs against India’s accurate bowling.

Rohit hit sixes on Henry and Santner but the very first ball of Lockie Ferguson was played on the wickets. Facing 40 balls, he hit four sixes and the same number of fours.

  • Anushka Sharma did not come to watch India’s match, is this why Virat Kohli missed his century?

    Virat Kohli

    Team India has also registered a spectacular victory in its fifth match of the World Cup 2023. India has defeated New Zealand in the World Cup after 20 years.

    Virat Kohli
