| Devon Conway | 5 | 4 | 1 | 0 | 125 |
|
1.1 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! For the third time in as many games, Rana has accounted for Conway. Rana steams in from around the wicket and lands it on a good length, outside off. Just like Nicholls, Conway is unsure and just hangs his bat out with no real conviction. The ball jumps a bit on Devon and takes the outside edge. It goes straight into the waiting hands of Rohit Sharma at first slip, who gobbles it at waist height. 5/2

| Henry Nicholls | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
|
0.4 OUT! DRAGGED ON! Indecision from Henry Nicholls, and he pays the price. Arshdeep Singh strikes in the first over. In the channel, on a good length. Nicholls is caught in two minds, whether to play or leave. He makes a late decision to withdraw his bat. The ball catches the inside edge and crashes back into the stumps. A golden duck for Henry. 5/1

| Will Young | 30 | 41 | 5 | 1 | 73.17 |
|
12.1 OUT! BLINDER AT POINT! Harshit Rana bowls this on a back of a length and well outside off, begging to put away. Will Young obliges and tries to cut it away hard but just fails to keep it down as it flies towards point. Ravindra Jadeja, who is stationed there, moves to his right and takes a brilliant catch with both hands, and with the ball travelling quickly to him. Young cannot believe he has picked the fielder here, and that it was Jadeja, who rarely drops anything. He has to walk back for 30 off 41, and New Zealand are 58/3 now. 58/3

| Daryl Mitchell | 137 | 131 | 15 | 3 | 104.58 |
|
44.1 OUT! TAKEN! Mohammed Siraj strikes now, and India get rid of both the set batters in back-to-back overs. Siraj bangs this into the pitch, but rolls his fingers to take pace off. Daryl Mitchell steps across to pull it away but just has to wait for it and ends up getting a top edge. It flies towards deep square leg, where Kuldeep Yadav runs forward and takes a good catching diving forward with the sun right in his eyes. Mitchell departs after a fantastic 137 off 131, and gets a cheeky push from Kohli while walking back. 283/5

| Glenn Phillips | 106 | 88 | 9 | 3 | 120.45 |
|
43.1 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Arshdeep Singh finally gets the breakthrough for India and puts an end to this incredible 219-run stand. He goes full and outside off, takes pace off and keeps it out of the reach of the batter. Glenn Phillips still throws his bat at it, but only manages to get a thin outside edge behind, where KL Rahul moves to his right and takes a sharp catch with his extended right glove as it gets stuck in it. Phillips walks back after a superb knock of 106 off 88, and New Zealand are 277/4 now. 277/4

| Mitchell Hay Wk | 2 | 6 | 0 | 0 | 33.33 |
|
45.2 OUT! Given LBW! This looks straight but after a chat with his partner, Mitchell Hay has taken the review. This was the googly from Kuldeep, on a nagging length, on middle. Hay reached out in front and went hard on the reverse sweep. The ball snuck under the bat to catch Hay on the knee roll on the front pad. No bat involved on UltraEdge. It is three reds on Ball Tracking with the ball crashing into the off pole. Mitchell takes a review with him. 3 wickets in 14 balls for India. New Zealand are losing wickets at a crucial juncture in the game. 286/6

| Zakary Foulkes | 10 | 8 | 1 | 0 | 125 |
|
47.1 OUT! CAUGHT! A cheeky attempt, but it does not quite come off for Zakary Foulkes. Not the best of balls by Arshdeep as he gets the yorker wrong. It comes out as a low full toss, on middle. Foulkes backs away a bit and looks to go over the man at short third with a reverse scoop. He fails to get the elevation on the shot as the ball goes flat and straight to Kuldeep Yadav off the face of the blade. Kuldeep makes no mistake and New Zealand are 7 down for 303. 304/7

| Kristian Clarke | 11 | 5 | 1 | 1 | 220 |
|
49 OUT! CASTLED! You miss, I hit, says Harshit Rana. Gets the yorker in, does Harshit. Nice and straight at the stumps. Clarke shuffles across to play the scoop but misses it completely and the stumps are shattered. A handy knock nonetheless from Clarke. 11 (5) for Kristian. 327/8

4 OUT! CAUGHT! A real soft dismissal. Mitchell Hay will be a relieved man. Angled into the pads, on a good length, Rohit brings his bat out in front and sets up to play the aerial flick, more over mid-wicket. The ball appears to have stopped on him and Rohit ends up spooning a simple catch to mid on, where Kristian Clarke does the rest. 28/1

| Shubman Gill C | 23 | 18 | 4 | 0 | 127.77 |
|
6.4 OUT! CASTLED! Kyle Jamieson produces an absolute beauty. Shubman Gill wears a puzzled look, staring at the 22 yards. A sharp nip-backer, landing on a patch of grass, on a good length, outside the off stump. Shubman does not get completely forward and brings his bat out in front. The ball jags back in to go past the inside edge. It clips the front pad before going through and uprooting the off stump. 45/2

| Virat Kohli | 124 | 108 | 10 | 3 | 114.81 |
|
45.4 OUT! IN THE AIR....GONE! That is probably the game for New Zealand, and it is pin-drop silence here in Indore. Kristian Clarke goes fuller and on off. Virat Kohli tries to launch it down the ground, but his bat turns in his hands upon contact. He ends up mistiming it high in the air towards long off, where fittingly, it is Daryl Mitchell who settles under it and pouches it safely. It is disappointing for Kohli and India, as he walks back for a magnificent 124 off 108, but it won't be in a winning cause here. The crowd applauds him, but it is the Kiwis who are celebrating. 292/9

| Shreyas Iyer | 3 | 10 | 0 | 0 | 30 |

11.2 OUT! TAKEN! Shreyas Iyer absolutely throws his wicket away here. Kristian Clarke bangs this into the pitch and around. Iyer stands tall and tries to pull it on the front foot. He hits it quite well but does not get the elevation at all. It flies flat and straight to mid on, where Zakary Foulkes reverse cups it near his chest, while tumbling backwards after taking it. Poor choice of shot from Iyer and he has to walk back for 3 off 10, and India are 68/3, chasing 338 runs. 68/3

| KL Rahul Wk | 1 | 6 | 0 | 0 | 16.66 |
|
12.5 OUT! TAKEN! Jayden Lennox strikes in his first over, and this is a big wicket for New Zealand, as the centurion from the last game goes back cheaply here. This is slower through the air, full and around off, stops on the surface and turns away too. KL Rahul is taken aback by it as he looks to push it away but just checks his shot. The ball hits the sticker of the bat and loops towards extra cover, where Glenn Phillips takes a simple catch. 71/4

| Nitish Kumar Reddy | 53 | 57 | 2 | 2 | 92.98 |

27.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Kristian Clarke breaks through for New Zealand. Nitish Kumar Reddy was starting to look more confident, but his stay has been cut short. Into the surface, at waist height, on off. Reddy swivels on the pull and he connects well but fails to keep it along the ground. Will Young, at a catching mid-wicket position, gets low quickly and takes a sharp catch at shin height. The 88-run stand is broken. 53 (57) for Reddy. 159/5

| Ravindra Jadeja | 12 | 16 | 0 | 0 | 75 |

32.1 OUT! TAKEN! Jayden Lennox strikes gold again, and this is a big moment in this game. He sees the batter charge down the track, follows him and slows it up in the air, lands this full and on leg. Ravindra Jadeja does not quite get to the pitch of it but still goes through the heave across the line. It flies off the inside half of the bat straight towards deep mid-wicket, where Will Young pouches it safely. Jadeja fails to make an impact with the bat yet again in this series, and India are in big trouble now. 178/6

| Harshit Rana | 52 | 43 | 4 | 4 | 120.93 |

43.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Zakary Foulkes breaks through. Not the best of balls from Foulkes, a full toss, just below the waist. Rana is deep in the crease for a heave across the line. He is late on the shot and spoons it in front of long on. Henry Nicholls comes charging in off the ropes and slides to take a fine catch under pressure. The 99-run stand is broken. 277/7

43.5 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Mohammed Siraj has been strangled down leg. Two in two for Zakary Foulkes. Full and sliding down leg, Siraj looks to play the glance but the ball grazes the edge and the keeper, Mitchell Hay gets low to his left to gobble it up. Siraj was not sure whether he nicked it but opted against the review after having a chat with Kohli. Foulkes is on a hat-trick. 277/8

| Kuldeep Yadav | 5 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 166.66 |

46 OUT! KULDEEP YADAV IS RUN OUT! A brilliant piece of fielding, and Glenn Phillips has the final say in this game. Kristian Clarke lands this on a hard length and on off. Arshdeep Singh pushes it towards cover and sets off for the run. Phillips is quick to move to his right, picks it up, and without much of a backlift scores a direct hit at the batter's end in one motion. Kuldeep Yadav thinks he is in, and he turns back for the second run as the ball deflects away in the deep. However, it has been sent upstairs, and the replay shows that Kuldeep did not slide his bat inside in time. Phillips is ecstatic seeing this on the big screen, and every Kiwi player surrounds him to celebrate this historic win. NEW ZEALAND WIN BY 41 RUNS AND SEAL THE SERIES 2-1! 296/10
