WICKET! Axar Patel Breaks the Partnership! Mitchell Departs on a Full Toss
High drama in the middle! This over started with uncharacteristic sloppiness from Hardik Pandya, who first dropped a catch of Santner and then conceded a boundary through a misfield on the very next ball. However, Axar Patel kept his cool. He followed up with a low full toss that Daryl Mitchell looked to dispatch over the ropes. Mitchell didn't get the desired elevation and found the fielder perfectly. A crucial breakthrough just when New Zealand was looking to explode!

The "Bapu" provides the wicket India desperately needed. Mitchell's cameo ends at 17, and the Black Caps are now 6 down. Mitchell Santner remains the lone warrior, but he's running out of partners quickly!
