In the second one-day international, a young fan surprised everyone by storming the field and hugging India’s captain, Rohit Sharma

India defeated New Zealand in the second one-day international that took place in Raipur by a score of eight wickets, giving them an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-game series.

First, Indian bowlers kept the Blackcaps from scoring more than 108 runs in their allotted 34.3 overs. Then, the captain of India’s cricket team, Rohit Sharma, produced a magnificent 51 runs, and India easily reached their target in just 20.1 overs.

Since 2019, India has won all seven of its One-Day International series at home in a row. During India’s innings, when Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill were at the crease, the match also saw the peculiar occurrence of a child running into the field of play. This occurred while India was batting.

The youngster came up to Rohit Sharma and gave him a bear hug before being escorted away by security.

In the second one-day international match, which took place on Saturday at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium in Raipur, India, the Indian bowlers unleashed their fury to skittle out the visitors for 108. This came after the Indian bowlers were subjected to a severe assault at the back-end of the New Zealand chase in the first ODI.

The Indian new ball bowlers took advantage of the favourable bowling conditions that were on offer by bowling at an extremely high rate on a surface that had a healthy grass cover. Mohammad Shami was the most destructive bowler, taking three wickets in the match.

Both Hardik Pandya and Washington Sundar were responsible for taking two wickets. During this time, Siraj, Kuldeep, and Shardul all took one wicket apiece.

Indian speed attack made sure that the decision to field was the correct one as they ripped through the New Zealand batting lineup, with Shami drawing first blood. This ensured that the decision to bowl first was the correct one.

The right-arm pacer got the home team off to a blazing start by bowling Finn Allen without allowing him to record an out.

Henry Nicholls 2(17) was eliminated by a strike from Mohammed Siraj in the sixth over, which resulted in the hosts achieving their second breakthrough.

In the most recent one-day international matches, the Hyderabad-born fast bowler has been making the ball talk and putting the hitters in a spot of bother with his fantastic spells.

After getting rid of Daryl Mitchell 1(3) in the eighth over, Shami shown that he will continue to be a threat to the batsmen.

While trying to play the ball through the on-side, the New Zealand batter received a leading edge, and the ball flew up to Shami, who took the catch and added a second wicket to his total.
