Shivam Dube's expensive over

Shivam Dube had struggled with bat as he could only man five runs off six deliveries. However, it was his bowling that shifted momentum in New Zealand's favour and helped m match up with steep asking rate. Stand-in skipper KL Rahul had given ball to Dube in 10th over as hosts broke shackles and started going after bowler straight away.

Dube was deposited into stands on very first delivery before giving away 10 runs in next two balls as well. Even though he gave away just a single on fourth delivery, he overstepped as a result of which it resulted in a free hit and a misfield from Navdeep Saini ensured that it was a boundary. Ross Taylor added insult to injury by taking him into stands in next two deliveries as he ended up giving away 34 runs.
