Gurnoor Brar's confidence impresses Ravi Shastri after match-winning spell in Wellington
India secured a four-run victory over New Zealand in a rain-shortened match on November 7, 2026, moving to a 2-0 lead in their five-game series. Left-arm pacer Gurnoor Brar spearheaded the win with a career-best performance, claiming four wickets for 30 runs across 10 overs.
This effort, which included two maidens, stands as the third-best ODI bowling display by an Indian against the Black Caps on their home soil. Former coach Ravi Shastri lauded the 11th-match veteran for his tactical maturity and ability to balance raw speed with disciplined line and length.
Brar's display marks a significant turnaround following a difficult outing at Lord's earlier this year.
