India’s Mayank Yadav Dismissing New Zealand’s Daryl Mitchell and Tim Seifert in Early Overs

In the opening overs of the India‑New Zealand match, India’s bowler Mayank Yadav made a decisive impact. Yadav dismissed New Zealand’s Daryl Mitchell by delivering a 143 kph straight yorker that landed on the popping crease, resulting in a leg‑before‑wicket. Mitchell’s appeal was upheld after the review, with no evidence of an inside edge on UltraEdge or Ball Tracking.

Yadav followed the dismissal with a series of boundaries, including a four and two sixes, as Mitchell continued to score freely.

In the same over, Yadav also claimed the wicket of Tim Seifert. He bowled a short, wide delivery at 138 kph that Seifert could not control, leading to an upper‑cut into the deep third where Prince Yadav took a fine catch. This was India’s first wicket of the innings.

The early wickets set the tone for India, who were 5/1 after the first over, with Yadav’s bowling proving pivotal in curbing New Zealand’s run‑rate and taking early wickets.
