A run-fest in Christchurch saw India survive a scare from New Zealand to take a 2-0 lead in the series on March 8, 2009. Sachin Tendulkar’s sublime 163 and Yuvraj Singh’s brutal 87 off 60 balls* powered India to 392/4, but Jesse Ryder’s maiden ODI ton and New Zealand’s fearless approach made it a nerve-wracking chase. 🏏 Match Highlights: ✅ Sachin Tendulkar (163 off 133 balls)* – A masterclass in stroke play, retired hurt after a stomach strain. ✅ Yuvraj Singh’s explosive 87 (10 fours, 6 sixes) took apart the New Zealand attack. ✅ India smashed 18 sixes, equaling the then world record for most sixes in an ODI innings. ✅ Jesse Ryder (105 off 80) & Brendon McCullum (71 off 68) gave New Zealand a blazing start. ✅ Kyle Mills (54 off 32) & Tim Southee (32 off 20) threatened a miracle but India held their nerve. ✅ Harbhajan Singh & Zaheer Khan recovered from expensive starts to deliver crucial breakthroughs. A record 726 runs were scored, the second-highest aggregate in ODI history at the time. India’s Powerplay acceleration and key run-outs of McCullum and Ross Taylor turned the tide in their favor. #CricketMax #INDvsNZ #SachinTendulkar #highlights
