Sensational India took a 1-0 lead in the three-game T20I series against New
Zealand with Suryakumar Yadav’s miraculous hundred and the bowlers’ superb
all-around performance in Mount Maunganui.
Suryakumar, in the form of his life, scored his second century of the year,
leading India to a score of 191-6 under trying conditions. New Zealand’s
reply sputtered along until they were all out for 126 in the 19th over,
well short of their target. After the first T20I in Wellington was
postponed due to rain, India needed to win the second game to ensure they
wouldn’t lose the series.
