New Delhi: Defending champions India had a field day on their first warm-up match of ICC Champions Trophy 2017 against New Zealand at the Kennington Oval, London on Sunday.
India first bowled out the Kiwis for a lowly 189, then were in complete control in the chase before rain interrupted the play. India were 129/3 after 26 overs with skipper Virat Kohli (52) and MS Dhoni (17) at the crease.
There were many take-away moments for India, but the defining moment, probably, was the stumping of Colin de Grandhomme in the 23rd over, thanks to a brilliant jugalbandi between usual suspects Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja.
Seeing de Grandhomme come down the pitch, Jadeja cut the length of his delivery and pushed it wide. Then, Dhoni produced a lightning quick stumping, leaving the Kiwi batsman well short of his crease.

As seen in the video, Jadeja also got the wicket of New Zealand's top-scorer Luke Ronchi with a beauty.
For the record, Jadeja was the leading wicket-taker in the previous edition of Champions Trophy, which India won.
