The second test between India and New Zealand is being played in Pune. In this test, Team India got the second wicket thanks to Sarfaraz Khan. Sarfaraz gave India a big victory without even holding the ball. Ashwin got the wicket but it would not have been achieved without the wisdom of Sarfaraz Khan. The wicket that Ashwin and Team India got because of Sarfaraz was New Zealand batsman Will Young. With this wicket, New Zealand has suffered another blow in the first innings of the Pune Test.
Sarfaraz took the wicket without even holding the ball
In the 24th over of the innings, it was seen how Sarfaraz gave a wicket to India without even catching the ball. Ashwin's last ball of this over deviated a bit from his line. The ball went towards the leg side after hitting the middle stump. Will Young tries a flick shot on him but misses. As soon as Young appealed, the Indian players made a strong appeal, which had no effect on the umpire.
Sarfaraz convinces Rohit for DRS
After the umpire's refusal, Sarfaraz Khan, standing at forward short leg, asked captain Rohit Sharma to take DRS. The way Sarfaraz was presenting his views to Rohit, his confidence was clearly visible. He was telling Rohit that the ball had touched the bat, he had seen it. Sarfaraz also got the support of Virat in convincing Rohit. Eventually Rohit showed confidence and took DRS and then what happened as Sarfaraz had said. The on-field umpire had to change his decision and Will Young had to go to the pavilion.
