India vs New Zealand 2nd ODI: The second match of the three ODI series between India and New Zealand will be played in Raipur on 21 January. It is a do or die match for the Kiwis. New Zealand will have to win this match at any cost to stay in the series. India is ahead 1-0 in the series after winning the first match played in Hyderabad. It is true that India would not have taken a breath after winning the first ODI. Because the way Kiwi batsman Michael Bracewell attacked the Indian bowlers, Team India’s bowling pole was exposed. All the bowlers proved to be expensive ahead of Bracewell. Seeing the horror of his batting, Captain Rohit Sharma did not make Kuldeep Yadav bowl the entire overs of the quota. This indicates that Kuldeep may be dropped from the playing XI of the second ODI.
reason for not completing the over
In the match against New Zealand, Rohit Sharma handed the ball to Kuldeep Yadav in the fourth bowling change. Kuldeep bowled excellently and took two wickets of the Kiwi team. However, during this time some shots were also taken on his ball. But when Kuldeep was stopped from bowling, by that time he had taken 2 wickets for 43 runs keeping a maiden in 8 overs. One of the reasons for not fulfilling Kuldeep’s quota is being considered. Because when Kuldeep was to be brought on bowling, Michael Bracewell was in his full colour. He was attacking all the bowlers of Team India fiercely. Bracewell is a left handed batter. Kuldeep Yadav is also a left arm leg spinner. The captain must be thinking that Kuldeep may not prove to be expensive in front of Bracewell, who is in full form. Perhaps that’s why Rohit Sharma did not think it appropriate to bowl with Kuldeep.
Will Bracewell come this time too?
New Zealand’s lower middle order batsman Michael Bracewell is in amazing form. Although he does not have much experience of playing international cricket. But after making his debut in international cricket, he has made his image of an aggressive batsman. He has now scored two centuries while batting at number seven. Earlier, only MS Dhoni had scored two centuries while playing at number seven. Now Bracewell has equaled Dhoni. If Bracewell walks in the match to be played in Raipur, then the difficulties of many bowlers of Team India will increase.
