KL Rahul cuts jersey during India vs New Zealand ODI

During the second ODI between India and New Zealand in Wellington, wicketkeeper KL Rahul was seen having his jersey cut with scissors by supporting staff before taking the field. The incident occurred as players were preparing for fielding duties following a delay caused by rain.

Reports indicate Rahul requested the modification because he felt uncomfortable in the jersey. This practice has been observed previously with players cutting full-sleeve jerseys to elbow length.

Due to weather conditions, the match was delayed by approximately one hour, resulting in the game being reduced to 47 overs per side. India currently leads the five-match series 1-0 after a dominant performance in the first ODI.
