India vs New Zealand 2017: 5 reasons why India won the 3rd ODI

#1 Bumrah-Bhuvneshwar death overs bowling

Bumrah was exceptional

It was an off day for Bhuvneshwar Kumar who was taken to the cleaners by Colin Munro, but this did not come in his way when he came back to bowl in the death overs as he combined beautifully with Jasprit Bumrah to strangle the New Zealand batting in the final four overs.

New Zealand were firm favourites when they needed 35 runs in the final four overs but then Bhuvneshwar and Bumrah combined all over again and not only kept the runs down but kept picking up wickets to ensure New Zealand finished six runs adrift of the target.
