Ind Vs Nz Live: Abhishek Sharma Off the Mark! India Navigates Glenn Phillips' Spin

We are midway through the second over, and the explosive Abhishek Sharma has finally opened his account. After watching the first seven balls of the match from the non-striker's end, he took a quick single to settle the nerves.

New Zealand’s decision to bring on Glenn Phillips this early is keeping the openers on their toes. The pitch seems to be holding a bit, and the batsmen are choosing to play with caution rather than going for the big hits immediately.
