The Indian cricket team got off to the worst possible start while chasing a target of 334 runs against New Zealand in the 4th ODI at Bay Oval on Friday. With the new ball in hand, Matt Henry dismissed Rohit Sharma on the first ball of the innings, prompting Virat Kohli to arrive at the crease. The India icon suffered to handle Henry's seaming deliveries early and departed on the 5th ball of the over. On the very next delivery, Henry also sent India's stand-in skipper Shreyas Iyer packing by trapping him in front of the stumps.

The opening over of the innings delivered absolute carnage for New Zealand, with Henry executing a sensational triple-wicket maiden that left India reeling at zero for three. Operating with hostile accuracy, Henry struck with the very first delivery of the match. He extracted extra bounce and seam movement away from Rohit, whose attempted defensive shot resulted in a thick outside edge cleanly pouched by Finn Allen at first slip for a golden duck.

Kohli strode to the crease facing immediate pressure and survived a probing examination, getting beaten by a sharp delivery seaming away before playing a couple of more dot balls to settle. However, Henry landed the knockout blow on the fourth ball of Kohli's brief stay, getting a delivery to nip back sharply and keep low. Kohli was pinned in his crease, beaten through the gate as the ball crashed into the stumps, departing for a four-ball duck.

Shreyas Iyer arrived at the crease and lasted just a single delivery. Henry delivered a razor-sharp in-seamer on a good length that beat Iyer's inside edge and rapped him flush on the back leg. Though umpire Kumar Dharmasena initially turned down the fervent appeal, New Zealand's review proved decisive. UltraEdge confirmed no bat involved, and ball-tracking lit up three reds, showing the ball crashing into middle stump.

Completing a phenomenal triple-wicket maiden, Henry left New Zealand in dreamland and India confronting a disastrous start. The Kiwi pacer came with as much killer instinct in his second over (the team's third) but failed to pick up a wicket. It was another maiden, though, for the veteran seamer.
