Mohammed Siraj was sent in as a nightwatchman on day one of the third India-New Zealand Test, only to burn a crucial review and lose his wicket first ball.
India bowled New Zealand out for 235 after losing the toss on a Wankhede wicket that had turn and bounce. In response, New Zealand got the early wicket of Rohit Sharma for 18 in the seventh over, before the young duo of Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal took the attack to the New Zealand spinners.
Gill and Jaiswal added 53 for the second wicket 63 balls when Jaiswal was bowled trying to reverse sweep an Ajaz Patel delivery from around the wicket. With under 15 minutes to go before stumps, the Indian management decided to send in Mohammed Siraj as the nightwatch, covering for Virat Kohli.
