IndoreThe visitors won the third and last ODI in the ongoing multi-format series between New Zealand and India. On January 18, the third ODI between the two teams took place at the Holkar Stadium in Indore. New Zealand batted first in the match and scored 337 runs in the first innings. The visitors won the match by 41 runs after India, trying to chase down the target, was bundled out for 296.
The veteran batter gave an amazing performance for the Men in Blue. Although Kohli scored 124 runs in 108 deliveries, India lost because the top and middle order were unable to establish a strong partnership with Kohli.
Speaking on the same topic, former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh took center stage and discussed how Kohli was not receiving enough support during the match.
In addition to Virat Kohli's outstanding 124, Reddy and Rana each contributed 53 and 52 runs, respectively. I believe the chase might have been feasible if Reddy's innings had continued a bit longer. However, in my opinion, the necessary start was not achieved; wickets fell early. No one encouraged Kohli to stay at the crease. In a video posted to his YouTube channel, Harbhajan Singh stated, "I think the chase could have been possible, but getting a solid start becomes very important when you are chasing 337, which the Indian team didn't get."
Daryl Mitchell was praised by Harbhajan Singh for his performance.Daryl Mitchell's performance in the game was also praised by Harbhajan Singh. Mitchell scored another century in the third ODI after displaying his skill in the second.
Mitchell deserves praise because he is an excellent player. He rotates the strike effectively with singles and doubles, plays spin really well, and is a complete player. He does a great job when he goes for a big hit. Then there's Glenn Phillips," he added.
