2nd ODI: Injury-hit New Zealand forced to bring asst coach Luke Ronchi as sub
Auckland, Feb 8: New Zealand were forced to bring on their assistant coach Luke Ronchi during the Indian innings during the second ODI at Eden Park in Auckland. New Zealand were without a number of their frontline players, including captain Kane Williamson, in the second ODI which meant that they had hardly any players in the dressing room to use as a substitute fielder.
It meant that when the need arose in the 37th over, Ronchi had to put on the playing jersey and walk on to the pitch. He also had a small role to play two overs later when Navdeep Saini punched the ball to mid-on where Ronchi was standing.
