IND vs NZ: Santner-Daryl's duo pegs back India in Ranchi as New Zealand clinch T20I opener despite Washington's heroics

Hardik Pandya's decision to include Washington Sundar in India's playing XI for the first T20I against New Zealand came handy for the Men in Blue on Friday (January 27). India's star all-rounder Sundar put up a show with the ball as he snared two back-to-back wickets to give India a solid start. Not just that Sundar also grabbed one of the best catches off his own bowling to send New Zealand's batter Mark Chapman packing without even opening his account at the JSCA stadium in Ranchi.&nbsp;The 23-year-old off spinner already had dismissed New Zealand's opener Finn Allen for 35 off 23 in that over and came back to strike again.
