NEW DELHI: Star Indian spinner Ravindra Jadeja expressed surprise at Team India's collapse late in the day, in reply to New Zealand's 235, describing it as 'unexpected'. After witnessing a promising start with key partnerships, the team's sudden loss of wickets left him and the squad in disbelief.
Openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill forged a solid half-century partnership after losing skipper Rohit early, but India squandered the chance to capitalise on it, ending Day 1 of the third Test at 86/4.
