Sanju Samson, Abhishek Sharma disappoint in 5th NZ T20I as Vaibhav Sooryavanshi warms bench

India faced early struggles during the final T20 encounter against New Zealand as both opening batsmen fell cheaply. Adam Milne struck immediately by removing Abhishek Sharma for just one run, caught by Daryl Mitchell.

Milne then returned to claim the wicket of Sanju Samson, who managed only four runs before being caught by Michael Bracewell. These quick dismissals placed the batting lineup under immediate pressure, while young squad member Vaibhav Sooryavanshi remained on the bench.
