During New Zealand\u2019s tense chase, India managed to dismiss the dangerous Devon Conway, with <strong>Jasprit Bumrah<\/strong> trapping him <strong>lbw<\/strong> for <strong>17 (39)<\/strong>. However, it wasn\u2019t an easy decision for the on-field umpire.<\/p>\n<p>In an unexpected twist, umpire <strong>Michael Gough<\/strong>, usually reliable with his decisions, failed to raise his finger despite the delivery appearing plumb. Even India\u2019s fielders behind the stumps, including the wicketkeeper, were less enthusiastic. But Bumrah, adamant that Conway was out, convinced Kohli to urge <strong>Rohit Sharma<\/strong> to take the <strong>DRS<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The DRS call proved to be a masterstroke, as replays confirmed Conway was trapped right in front. The ball pitched on a full length, and Conway played inside the line, misjudging its trajectory as it crashed into his pads, right in front of off stump. The decision was overturned, and Conway had to walk back, leaving New Zealand at <strong>35\/2<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Bumrah\u2019s clever use of angles, particularly coming around the wicket, paid off as India secured the vital second wicket in their defense of the low target. Kohli\u2019s quick thinking and Bumrah\u2019s persistence combined to give India a chance to tighten their grip on the game.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mb-2 flex gap-3 empty:hidden -ml-2\">\n<div class=\"items-center justify-start rounded-xl p-1 flex\">\n<div class=\"flex items-center\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As India defends a modest target of 107 runs on Day 5 of the first Test against New Zealand at\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":250,"featured_media":31367,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8540","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cricket"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8540","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/250"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8540"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8540\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31367"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8540"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8540"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8540"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
