INDIA FAILS AGAIN!

1 comments






India lost even the second T20 match against NZ in Wellington.After winning the toss and electing to bat first,India had a good initial start up,but they failed to carry on the momentum through out the 20 overs.Yuvraj was the highest scorer scoring 50 of just 34 balls . Last match starrer Raina,Yousuf both went back to pavillion with DUCK .At one state India were looking to have control over the match but then came a blow for Indians when Yuvraj was caught at hte boundary.As the match progressed to the last 5 overs Indian skipper was still seen defencing the ball that came his way.Looked liked he wanted to be NOTOUT instead of hitting a big hits to take the team out of the trouble.At the end the Indian innings Dhoni was 28* (30).



NZ had a fantastic start at the starting of their innings ,looked like they were going to finish off the match within 15 overs but Indians bowlers hold there nerves and bowled superbly to take the match to the last over.It was a tensed situtation with NZ needing 1run from 1 ball. Irfan pathan bowled a good last ball which MCCULLUM hit up in the air ,it was seen to be a catch but it went short for Rohit Sharma,even though Rohit made a good attempt to catch it .

It was a bad day for the Indains as the kiwis chased successfully a mere score of 166 in 18.5 overs with 7 wickeets remaining,thanks to the powerful knocks by Mc Cullum and M.Guptill with 56*(49) and 41(28) runs respectively.The crowd enjoyed the match with both teams striking a poweful hits over the ropes .The match recorded 24 sixes 13 India and 11 by NZ which is a new World Record in T20.From the Indian side Raina's inning of 61 runs from 43 balls with 5 6's and 2 4's helped India to set a score of 162.
Dhoni's critics now have araised and claims that the Dhoni's days of Fortunes has finished.what say??Do you think its Dhoni's LUCK which makes him a successful captain.Post in your comments.
