Ind Vs Nz Live: WICKET! The Silence of the Crowd! Neesham Strikes First Ball to Dismiss Samson

A pin-drop silence has descended upon Ahmedabad. Just when it seemed like Sanju Samson was destined for the first-ever T20 World Cup Final century, Jimmy Neesham has struck with his very first delivery of the match! It was a deceptive slower ball that Samson tried to loft, only to find the fielder.

☝️ THE BIG WICKET: Sanju Samson Out!

S. Samson c Ferguson b Neesham 89 (46b) | 4s: 8 | 6s: 8

He leaves the field to a standing ovation. His 89 is now the highest individual score in T20 World Cup Final history, surpassing the 85-run mark shared by Marlon Samuels and Kane Williamson.

🇮🇳 India: 203/2 (15.1 Overs) Target: 250+
Ishan Kishan: 54* (24b)
New Batter: Hardik Pandya

Samson’s incredible tournament ends with a masterclass. He has single-handedly put India in a commanding position. Now, the Hardik walks out to join Kishan with less than five overs remaining. The platform is set for absolute carnage.
