SKY led India to a comprehensive victory

After winning the toss New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson invited the Indian team to put runs on the board. India started the innings with a new opening pair in Ishan Kishan and Rishabh Pant. India were hoping for an aggressive start, as Ishan Kishan started his inning by hitting some glorious boundaries while Rishabh Pant was struggling against the pacers and ended up throwing his wicket away in the powerplay.

However, it was only Suryakumar’s day after he came out at number three and started hitting every bowler out of the boundary line. He played a brilliant knock of 111 runs in just 51 balls at a fiery strike rate of 217.65. He smashed 11 fours and seven sixes during his innings and took India to a massive total of 191 runs.

The New Zealand batter had no reply for the huge target and started losing early wickets. Young opener Finn Allen got out to Bhuvneshwar Kumar on the second ball of the first over. And after that, the NZ batting line-up scattered like a pack of cards. And it was the visitors who earnt a thumping 65-run win to take a 1-0 lead.
