During the third One-Day International match between India and New Zealand, the young batsman Ishan Kishan and Virat Kohli were embroiled in a disastrous mix-up.
Ishan, who was hoping to capitalise on the strong beginning provided by Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill, showed signs of wanting to make an attempt for a run, but he gave up in the middle of the attempt.
Because Kohli was so focused on getting to the other end of the field, he failed to see when Ishan decided to take a different route, which led to him being run out. Ishan was the one who was eventually run out, while Virat managed to stay alive despite the fact that he was much closer to the striker’s end.
Ishan Kishan was facing up against Jacob Duffy when the event occurred in the 35th over of the match. The left-handed hitter quickly reached base by tapping the ball straight to cover for a single, but at the same time, he was engaged in a yes-no exchange with the non-end. striker’s
Kohli was running at full speed because he thought it was possible for him to score a run, while Ishan’s head was telling him to stop. Both batsmen eventually batted at the same end of the field, with Kohli reaching the crease first before his companion.
It appeared as though Ishan was hesitant to return to the crease, and it is likely that he made the decision to “sacrifice” his wicket in order to help the senior batsman.
However, Kohli was out after 27 balls for a score of 36, despite looking like he would have another huge innings.
Earlier on, India’s opening openers Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill each scored a century, which established a solid foundation for the rest of the team.
Gill continued his incredible run, having produced a double hundred in the first match of the series, while Rohit earned his first one-day international hundred in three years.
In addition, he hit 40 runs without being dismissed in the second one-day international match, which helped him emerge as the joint-highest scoring player in a three-match ODI series, tied at the top with Babar Azam.
