New Zealand pacer Matt Henry bowled a triple-wicket maiden in the fourth ODI against India at Bay Oval Friday (November 13), dismissing Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Shreyas Iyer for ducks to leave the visitors reeling at 0/3.

Chasing a daunting target of 334, the Men in Blue needed a strong start but Henry had other ideas. Returning from injury, the right-arm quick dismantled India's top order in his very first over with an over sequence of W - 0 - 0 - 0 - W - W.

Rohit was caught at first slip by Finn Allen after closing the bat face early against extra bounce and seam, while Kohli was bowled on the fifth delivery as a wobble-seam ball jagged back sharply and stayed low to rattle the stumps.

Just like Rohit, Shreyas bagged a golden duck as he was trapped LBW by Henry. Initially ruled not out on-field, the decision was overturned on a New Zealand review.

The scorecard reading 0/3 after the first over of India’s chase left former cricketers like Aakash Chopra and Ian Bishop amazed as they praised Matt Henry’s skills.

Coming to the match, the hosts posted 333 all out in 50 overs after being invited to bat first, powered by a century from Will Young (125) and a half-century from Tim Seifert (58). India pulled things back late in the innings with two wickets apiece for Axar Patel, Gurnoor Brar, and Auqib Nabi.

The tourists entered the match holding an unassailable 2-0 lead in the five-match series after winning the first two ODIs and seeing the third match washed out by rain.
