India Loses Three Wickets for Zero Runs in First Over Against New Zealand in Fourth ODI
In the fourth ODI against New Zealand at Bay Oval, India experienced a rare and challenging start, losing their first three wickets without scoring any runs. New Zealand pacer Matt Henry dismissed Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and captain Shreyas Iyer all for ducks within the first over, marking only the third time in ODI history that India lost three wickets in the opening over without runs. This early collapse put India under significant pressure while chasing a target of 334 runs.
