5.1 OUT! CAUGHT! A big wicket for New Zealand as the Indian skipper is gone and India have lost two wickets in the first Powerplay! Kyle Jamieson comes in from over the wicket and bowls it on a back of a length, around off, Rohit Sharma presses back a bit and looks to pull it. He plays it well in front of his body and the ball does not arrive as quickly as he wanted. He gets it through the cue end of the bat and the ball goes towards mid-wicket where Will Young moves to his left a bit and takes a reverse cup catch above his head. Shreyas Iyer is the new batter. 22/2

| Shubman Gill | 2 | 7 | 0 | 0 | 28.57 |
|
2.5 OUT! LBW! Matt Henry draws first blood! A big wicket for New Zealand as the current No.1 ODI batter goes back to the hut cheaply. Henry serves this one much fuller this time, on middle, shaping in slightly. Shubman Gill gets stuck in his crease and looks to work it across the line but misses and gets hit on the pads right in front of the stumps. There is a big appeal and up goes the finger. It looks plumb but Gill takes the review after having a chat with his skipper. UltraEdge confirms no bat involved and Ball Tracking shows three reds with the ball crashing into the top of the leg stump. Early blow to India! 15/1

| Virat Kohli | 11 | 14 | 2 | 0 | 78.57 |

6.4 OUT! CAUGHT! AN ABSOLUTE STUNNER FROM PHILLIPS! Virat Kohli is left stunned but will have to go back to the dressing room. Matt Henry gets his second wicket and India are in big trouble as they have lost their top three inside the first Powerplay! Henry bowls on a good length, and well outside off, Virat Kohli extends his arms and looks to thrash it to the off side. He can't keep it down and the ball goes in the air through the outer half of the bat towards backward point. Glenn Phillips makes a full stretched dive to his right and extends his right arm to grab an absolute stunner. India are 30/3. 30/3

| Shreyas Iyer | 79 | 98 | 4 | 2 | 80.61 |
|
36.2 OUT! TAKEN! Will O'Rourke gets the set batter! Once again, a break in play brings in a wicket for the fielding side. The short ball plan has finally worked for New Zealand. This one is banged into the pitch again at 143 clicks, on middle, but this time it bounces a bit extra. Shreyas Iyer decides to take it on and looks to pull but the ball gets big on him. He gets a top edge that flies behind mid-wicket where Will Young runs backwards, fumbles it on the first attempt but hangs onto it on the second. Iyer walks back after an excellent 79 off 98, and India lose half their side now! 172/5

| Axar Patel | 42 | 61 | 3 | 1 | 68.85 |
|
29.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Rachin Ravindra breaks the partnership and Axar Patel is gone! Ravindra keeps it a bit shorter, around middle, from over the wicket, Axar Patel bends a bit low and looks to pull it but generates a top edge that goes towards short fine leg. Kane Williamson at first misjudges the ball and comes ahead, but realises that the ball is going over his head. Adjusts by going back a couple of steps and extends his right hand to take it one-handed. Axar goes for 42 (61). The 98-run stand is broken and India are 128/4. 128/4

| KL Rahul Wk | 23 | 29 | 1 | 0 | 79.31 |

39.1 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Mitchell Santner joins the party now! Katey Martin and Dinesh Karthik On-Air were just talking about different wicket-keeping styles of New Zealand and India, and Tom Latham takes a sharp catch behind the stumps here. This one is flatter, full and on middle, turns away a bit and skids through too. KL Rahul backs away to push it away but gets a thin outside edge. Latham does not have much reaction time but grabs it really well. India are six down now! 182/6

| Hardik Pandya | 45 | 45 | 4 | 2 | 100 |

49.3 OUT! TAKEN! Turning out to be an excellent final over from Henry! Henry serves another bumper and gets it high enough to trouble the batter and tucks up the batter for room too. Pandya stays deep in the crease and swings for the pull. Skies it up towards deep square leg where Rachin Ravindra settles under it and takes it to his left. 246/8

| Ravindra Jadeja | 16 | 20 | 1 | 0 | 80 |
|
45.5 OUT! WHAT A GRAB! Kane Williamson has pulled off a beauty here! The senior pro throws his hat in the ring for the catch of the tournament. Henry steams in from around the wicket and bashes the deck hard, on off, Jadeja gets on his toes and tries to cut this one away. He fails to keep the shot along the ground and it goes low towards backward point. Williamson gets nice and low early and flings himself to his non-dominant left side. Sticks out his left hand low and snaffles it inches off the turf. 223/7

| Mohammad Shami | 5 | 8 | 0 | 0 | 62.50 |
|
50 OUT! TAKEN! Matt Henry completes his five-wicket haul on the last ball of the innings! A superb final over from Henry. 2 wickets and just 5 runs off it to restrict India to 249. Henry lands it on a length and rolls his fingers on the ball, on middle, Shami has a heave across the line but gets more height than distance on it. It goes only as far as deep mid-wicket where Glenn Phillips runs in off the ropes and takes a safe catch. 249/9

Will Young stays back and looks to punch it away but this one is too close to his body. The ball takes the inside edge and deflects onto the stumps. New Zealand are 49/2 now! 49/2

4 OUT! TAKEN! Hardik Pandya gives India their first breakthrough! Hardik stays over the wicket and bends his back in an effort to dig in short, outside off. Rachin hops and reaches out to flay it behind square on the off side. He is airborne while playing the shot and fails to get the distance behind the shot. It goes straight up towards deep third where Axar Patel misjudges at first as he takes a couple of steps back but makes amends as he runs and dives ahead to complete the catch. 17/1

41 OUT! STUMPED! Axar Patel gets the big fish on the final ball of his spell! He bowls the arm ball, full and on middle, angling in. Kane Williamson skips down the track to drive it over the bowler but misses it completely. He is so far out of his case that he does not even try to get back. KL Rahul collects and does the rest. Williamson walks back for a fighting 81 off 120, but this just might be the final nail in the coffin for the Kiwis. 169/7

| Daryl Mitchell | 17 | 35 | 1 | 0 | 48.57 |

25.1 OUT! LBW! Kuldeep Yadav breaks through for India! Or does he? Daryl Mitchell has reviewed it after consulting his partner. Kuldeep gives flight to the ball, on a length, around middle, turns in, Daryl Mitchell comes forward and looks to defend it with the full face of the bat. Gets beaten on the inside edge as the ball takes a turn and wears it on the front pad. There is an appeal for LBW from Kuldeep and the umpire raises his finger. The third umpire comes into play as the UltraEdge shows that there is no bat involved. The Ball Tracking presents that it is three reds with the ball crashing into the top of the leg stump. Daryl Mitchell will have to go back. New Zealand are 93/3. 93/3

32.2 OUT! LBW! A loud shout and the finger is raised! Tom Latham has a word with Kane and decides to keep walking. This is pushed through by Jadeja, around off, on a length, Tom gets his hands out in front and goes for the reverse. The ball sneaks under his bat and gloves to rap him on the crouched back leg. The partnership had a good tempo but it has now been broken. Jadeja has his first wicket of the night and New Zealand are 133/4, needing 117 runs in 104 balls. 133/4

| Glenn Phillips | 12 | 8 | 0 | 1 | 150 |

35.4 OUT! PLUMB IN FRONT! Brilliant response from Varun Chakaravarthy and New Zealand have now lost half their side. This is flicked from the back of the hand by Varun, on the fuller side, on off and middle, Phillips presses on the front foot to flick it away with a closed bat face. The ball just slides past the inside edge to hit Phillips on the front pad and trap him right in front of the stumps. 151/5

37.1 OUT! LBW! A big, big appeal and the finger is raised! Michael Bracewell walks up to Kane Williamson and after a discussion, he decides against the review. This is fizzed through, on a length, on the off stump, Bracewell looks to unleash the drive as he leans forward but the bat stays behind the front pad. The ball brushes the flap of the front pad and then goes on to hit the bat. Well, well, well, the Ball Tracking shows that the ball is sliding across with the angle and missing the off stump. A massive moment in the game! 159/6

44.2 OUT! CASTLED! Varun Chakaravarthy gets his fourth now! New Zealand's remaining hopes come crashing down with the wicket of their skipper. This one is the seam-up delivery, pushed through quicker as well, skidding on. Mitchell Santner fails to pick it and stays back in his crease to play at it. However, the ball goes through before his bat comes down and shatters the stumps. Santner departs after playing a good hand, but the Kiwis are eight down now. 195/8

44.4 OUT! TAKEN! NUMBER FIVE FOR VARUN! What an elite performance from the mystery spinner and he just keeps on getting better and better. Maiden ODI five-wicket haul for Varun. Tosses this one up, full and on off. Matt Henry looks for the big slog but fails to get under it. He mistimes it as the ball goes high in the air towards long off. Virat Kohli runs forward, settles under it, and pouches it safely. India are just one wicket away from the win now! 196/9
