The scheduled press match between the Indian and Australian media was cancelled after the Indian media reportedly boycotted a pre-arranged game, following a press conference row involving allrounder Ravindra Jadeja.
India threw away the advantage that Ravindra Jadeja provided with his 14th Test five-wicket haul by bowling New Zealand out for 235, with the home side losing three wickets in the last two overs of the opening day to end at 86 for 4, at the Wankhede Stadium here on Friday.
India’s star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja isn’t much worried to miss out on a well-deserved century but the left-arm spinner, currently four wickets away from 300 wickets in Test cricket
This was informed by the cricketer's wife, Rivaba Jadeja, through a post on X.
With the India bowlers failing to cause much trouble to Steve Smith, it was Ravindra Jadeja's brilliance in fielding that saw him lose his wicket.
Two team India players in a pair were seen trying to outdo each other that vaguely resembled a wrestling bout in Melbourne.
Jadeja was hit on his helmet off a delivery from speedster Mitchell Starc in the last over of India's innings. He was unable to take the field for Australia's innings.
The win has given India 1-0 lead in the three-match series. The Men in Blue had lost the ODI series earlier.
Put into bat, India didn't have a great start as they lost a wicket early in the innings. Shikhar Dhawan was undone by a brilliant outswinger in the third over
