#2 Tim Southee 10-0-105-0: New Zealand vs India, Christchurch, 2009
A small ground, a good flat pitch with true bounce and two teams packed with quality batsmen! This was the story of the 3rd ODI of India's tour of New Zealand in 2009. The Kiwis won the toss and opted to chase some leather. ‘Master Blaster’ Sachin Tendulkar played the role of ‘chief destroyer’ scoring 163 runs and helping India amass 392 runs.
Tim Southee, one of the vital cogs in the Kiwi wheel, was subjected to some special treatment that day. With no lateral movement on offer, Southee went the distance in that game. He couldn't find his rhythm towards the back end of the innings as well and was flogged around by the Indian skipper MS Dhoni and Suresh Raina.
The Kiwis lost by 58 runs with the game turning out to be a forgettable experience for young Southee.
