Rishabh Pant missed a run-out opportunity on the final ball of the 22nd over during New Zealand’s first innings in the third Test at the Wankhede Stadium. On the opening day of the game, Daryl Mitchell played a reverse sweep on the bowling of Washington Sundar. He ran the first one hard and asked his partner Will Young for a second run. Pant collected the ball at the striker’s end but failed to hit the stumps. What he failed to notice that Young was still around the halfway mark when he collected the ball. A good throw at the non-striker’s end could have caught the New Zealand batter short.

While analysing the missed chance, former India wicketkeeper-batter Dinesh Karthik pointed out that Pant needed game awareness and he should have taken one glove off to throw the ball at the other end.

“They (India) had their opportunity in the form of a run-out. Have a look at Will Young, he is thinking just a single. Rishabh Pant is the man you need to watch out for. He didn’t remove his glove and you can still see Will Young scrambling. If he had removed his gloves, have a look at where Young is and a throw down the non-striker’s end would have definitely been a much better chance. There was so much time and because Rishabh Pant didn’t remove his gloves there, he didn’t even have the opportunity to go at it at the other end. As a keeper, it is very important to be aware of what’s happening. And (I) must admit that Rishabh Pant did miss an opportunity there for a run-out,” said Karthik on-air.

India ended the opening day at 86 for 4, trailing New Zealand by 149 runs. India were solidly put at 78 for 1 at one stage but they lost three wickets in 8 balls to hand advantage to New Zealand. Earlier, Ravindra Jadeja claimed his 14th five-wicket haul in Test cricket as India made a remarkable comeback to bowl out New Zealand for 235 runs. With four wickets to his credit, Washington Sundar also helped the hosts’ cause. Daryl Mitchell top-scored for New Zealand with a terrific 82, while Will Young hit 71 after New Zealand skipper Tom Latham won the toss and opted to bat.

“He Will Go Down As…”: New Zealand Star’s Ultimate Praise For ‘World Class’ Virat Kohli

New Zealand batsman Daryl Mitchell on Sunday said he was proud of his team’s bowlers for putting up a fight in their World Cup loss to an India side inspired by “world class” Virat Kohli. Mitchell’s 130 guided the Kiwis to 273 all out but the total proved insufficient as India chased it down with two overs to spare in Dharamsala. Kohli hit 95 to lead the hosts to their fifth victory in as many matches and topple New Zealand, who lost their first match, from the top of the 10-team table.

New Zealand bowlers led by Lockie Ferguson took regular wickets but Kohli’s knock and his 78-run partnership with Ravindra Jadeja, who hit an unbeaten 39, tilted the match in India’s favour.

“He’s a world class player and he’ll go down as one of the greats of the game for a reason,” Mitchell said.

“A very good knock under pressure I thought and although he didn’t get 100, he got his team across the line.”

He added: “But yeah, look for us as Kiwis, we’ll just keep throwing punches, we’ll keep trying different things and we’ll keep trying to take wickets and I’m just really proud of our bowling unit tonight.

“For us, we’re really proud of our efforts and we look forward to taking on the Aussies in just under a week’s time.”

New Zealand will meet five-time winners Australia on Saturday at the same venue.

New Zealand lost their openers to slip to 19-2 before Mitchell and Rachin Ravindra, a Kiwi of Indian origin who hit 75, put on 159.

Mitchell raised his fifth ODI ton and smashed nine fours and five sixes in his 127-ball stay that ended on the penultimate ball of the innings.

“It was awesome back with ‘Rach’, he’s obviously in rich form at the moment and yeah, we were just having some fun out there and taking in what it is to be part of an amazing World Cup,” said Mitchell.

“To play at grounds like this and at crowds like this, it’s pretty special for us Kiwis who live on the bottom of the earth.”

New Zealand seemed to be cruising at 178-2 but Indian quick Mohammed Shami rattled the opposition batting with figures of 5-54 in his first match of this World Cup.

Mitchell praised Shami and the Indian fast bowlers for pulling the Kiwis down from a position of strength.

“I thought the way India bowled was pretty special obviously,” said Mitchell.

“Shami got the rewards but also (Jasprit) Bumrah, and (Mohammed) Siraj, the way they took wickets probably held us back a little bit.”
