India vs New Zealand 2016: 5 Talking Points from the 3rd ODI in Mohali

#4 – The tail wags again

James Neesham frustrated India by finding an able partner in Matt Henry

During the first ODI, New Zealand were 65/7 at one stage but ended up reaching 190 with Tim Southee scoring a half-century. They had collapsed to 199/8 at Mohali which meant that the Indian bowlers were given an opportunity to land the knockout blow. But, Matt Henry supported all-rounder James Neesham by putting on as many as 84 runs for the ninth wicket.

Interestingly, the lower order could not do much in the second ODI as the Kiwis unraveled rather spectacularly from 204/3 to 242/9. But, they went on to win that match while both occasions involving a late surge resulted in defeats.
