Kolkata, Nov 21 A fantastic fifty by captain Rohit Sharma (56 off 31) and some late charge by lower-order powered India to a competitive 184-7 against New Zealand in the third and final T20I of the three-match series at iconic Eden Gardens, here on Sunday.Apart from Rohit, Ishan Kishan (29), Venkatesh Iyer (20) and Shreyas Iyer (25) also got good starts but they failed to capitalise. Mitchell Santner (3/27) was the highest wicket-taker for the Kiwis.After winning the toss and opting to bat first, opener Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan gave India a flying start. The duo looked in sublime touch and played some glorious hosts, taking India to 69/0 at the end of Power-play.However, the Black Caps brought in spinners after the field restrictions were lifted and it did wonders for them. Bowling the 7th over, Kiwi stand-in captain Santner dismissed Ishan Kishan (29) and Suryakumar Yadav (0) in a gap of few deliveries to peg India back in the match.With two wickets falling in quick succession, captain Rohit and Rishabh Pant had the responsibility to build a new partnership. But Pant (4), who had a shaky start in the middle, mistimed Santner's delivery to get out, leaving India in trouble at 83/3 after nine overs.From there, Rohit and Shreyas Iyer, who walked in at No 5, tried to bring India back into the game by rotating strikes regularly. During the process, the Indian captain hit his 26th T20I fifty in just 27 deliveries with a cracking four. India wanted their captain to carry on even after his fifty, but Ish Sodhi sent Rohit (56) back with a superb caught and bowled effort.At 103-4 in 11.2 overs, India were in a spot of bother, and two Iyers (Venkatesh and Shreyas) out in the middle needed to steady the innings. They took their time to settle in and hit occasional boundaries and take India to 133/4 after 15 overs.With five more overs to go, both Iyers decided to break the shackles but they failed to do so and were dismissed in consecutive deliveries. While Trent Boult got rid of Venkatesh (20) in the last ball of the 16th over, Adam Milne dismissed Shreyas Iyer (25) in the first delivery of the 17th over.In the end, Deepak Chahar (21) also hit two boundaries and a six in the last over of the innings to steer India to 184-7 at Eden Gardens.Brief scores:India 184-7 in 20 Overs (Rohit Sharma 56, Ishan Kishan 29; Mitchell Santner 3/27) against New ZealandDisclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
