India vs New Zealand, Final, ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 - Player Highlights

Matt Henry to Hardik Pandya, out Caught by Mitchell Santner!! Six and out. A slower-ball off-cutter and dug in short outside off, always tough to flat-bat that, especially if it bounces like that, Hardik Pandya attempts to flat-bat and holes out to cover. Lots of height on that and Santner held on. Pandya walks off slamming his bat on the ad-cushions in disappointment. Since Pandya wanted to go over long-off, that was a very tough shot. Pandya walks off shadow-practicing the shot over sweeper cover. That's where he wanted to hit that. Hardik Pandya c Mitchell Santner b Matt Henry 18(13) [4s-1 6s-1]
