The first match of the three-match ODI series between India and New Zealand took place in Vadodara on Sunday. Captain Shubhman Gill won the toss and decided to bowl first. The 13th over of New Zealand’s innings was going on. Washington was bowling beautifully. The all-rounder is a beautiful spin bowler but wicketkeeper KL Rahul was unhappy with his bowling. Actually he was unhappy with the speed of the ball. KL Rahul said something to Washington Sundar. On this, Varun Aaron, who was present in the commentary panel, said that Rahul had told Sundar in Tamil that he was bowling at the speed of a medium pacer. After this Aaron said that he did not think that Washington Sundar would understand Tamil well.
