Shafali Verma Falls Early After Sophie Devine’s Smart Review Overturns Umpire’s Not Out Decision | WATCH

India opener Shafali Verma was dismissed cheaply in the second ODI against New Zealand after a successful review by Sophie Devine overturned the umpire's not out decision.

Verma was given out lbw to Lea Tahuhu in the third over of India's innings, but she immediately reviewed the decision. Replays showed that the ball was hitting the leg stump, and the on-field decision was overturned.

Verma had scored just 1 run off 4 balls before she was dismissed. Her dismissal was a big blow for India, who are already 1-0 down in the three-match series. India will be hoping to bounce back in the third and final ODI, which will be played on Saturday.

Verma is one of India's most promising young batters. The 18-year-old has already scored two centuries in ODIs, and she is seen as a future star of the Indian team.

However, she has struggled for form in recent months. She has scored just 58 runs in her last five ODI innings, and she will be hoping to find some form in the third and final ODI against New Zealand.

India will need Verma to fire if they are to level the series against New Zealand. The hosts will be confident of winning the series, but India will be determined to avoid a 3-0 whitewash.

The third and final ODI between India and New Zealand will be played on Saturday at the John Davies Oval in Queenstown.
