My role is to be defensive and get wickets that way: NZ spinner Santner

VISAKHAPATNAM: (Jan 29) After tormenting India one more time, left-arm spinner Mitchell Santner said his role in T20Is is to bowl defensive, build pressure and take wickets. He added that it was satisfying to see the strategy pay rich dividends in the fourth T20I here.

India came across a familiar foe in Santner as the New Zealand skipper bowled a brilliant spell of 4-0-26-3 to lead his side to a 50-run win at the ACA-VDCA stadium.

He extended the misery of Sanju Samson, got rid of the dangerous Hardik Pandya and then capped the fine run with the wicket of Jasprit Bumrah.
