In a remarkable display of skill and precision, Indian fast bowler Gurnoor Brar achieved a rare feat in international cricket by recording the second-best bowling figures by an Indian pacer in New Zealand. The 29-year-old pacer bowled a stellar spell of 4/30 in the second ODI against New Zealand at Henry Stadium in Wellington, joining Javagal Srinath's 4/23 from 2003 at Auckland.
Brar's performance was instrumental in India reducing New Zealand to 134 all out in just 41 overs, thanks to rain interruptions in the match. His contribution, along with teammates Anshul Kamboj and Auqib Nabi, helped India secure a four-wicket victory in the fifth match of the five-match series, taking a 2-0 lead.
