    1st T20I: Abhishek’s 84, Rinku’s 44 Not Out Carry India To 238/7 Against New Zealand

    New VCA Stadium: Abhishek Sharma struck a magnificent 84 while Rinku Singh made a fantastic unbeaten 44 as India posted 238/7 in 20 overs against New Zealand in the T20I series opener at the New VCA Stadium in Nagpur on Wednesday.

    Abhishek stepped up to take on the bowlers and produced another stunning knock worth 35 balls laced with five fours and eight sixes at a strike-rate of 240. Rinku finished the innings strongly with a 20-ball 44 not out, studded with four boundaries and three sixes to guide India past the 230-mark after New Zealand had elected to bowl first.

    Quickfire cameos of 32 and 25 from captain Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya helped India reach their highest total in a T20I against New Zealand. When India came out to bat, what would be a good score here was the question on everyone’s mind, considering a T20I game was being held in Nagpur after a long gap.
