3rd Test: Jadeja Says Hara-kiri By Indian Batters In Last 10 Minutes Of Day 1 Part Of Game
Ravindra Jadeja: Seasoned left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja played down the hara-kiri committed by the Indian team in the last 10 minutes of play on the first day and said one or two players committing mistakes was part and parcel of team atmosphere.
After bowling out New Zealand for 235 soon after the tea break on the first day thanks to Jadeja's 14th five-wicket haul and four wickets by Washington Sundar, India looked in a strong position as Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill added fifty runs for the second wicket to take India to 79/1. With 3-4 overs to go for the day, Jaiswal had a brain fade and played a reverse sweep against Ajaz Patel and got bowled for 30.
The Indian team management sent Mohd Siraj as a nightwatchman and he departed for a golden ball duck, making it two wickets in two balls for Patel. Virat Kohli then ran himself out as India lost three quick wickets and were struggling at 86/4 at the end of the first day.
