Tickner’s incredible hitting helped New Zealand add quick runs at a time when India were looking to finish the innings quickly. However, the New Zealander’s entertaining knock finally came to an end when Gurnoor Brar dismissed him for 34 runs in Auckland. Earlier, Virat Kohli teased Glenn Phillips with John Cena's 'You Can't See Me' celebration.
The big moment came in the 38th over when Tickner was facing Arshdeep Singh. The Indian pacer tried to bowl yorkers but failed to get his length right, allowing the New Zealand batter to take full advantage at Eden Park.
Tickner scored 19 runs off the over, while Jacob Duffy added two more runs from the final delivery. As a result, Arshdeep conceded 23 runs in that over in the first ODI at Eden Park. Amid this, Arshdeep Singh opens up on gesture after Kyle Jamieson's dismissal.
