  • Player of the Match
    Mitchell Santner
Tomorrow is a double header. Bangladesh take on Pakistan at 1500 IST (0930 GMT) at Kolkata, whom they beat not too long ago. The second game will be between England and West Indies at Mumbai at 1930 IST (1400 GMT). Do join us then. Good bye! Take care!
That's it from us tonight. The highlight is India's 7-match winning streak has been broken. Now, India will take on Pakistan on Saturday at Eden Gardens on the 19th. India will need to maintain their 100 percent record over their Asian rivals to avoid mathematical complications. New Zealand take on Australia in their second game.
MS DHONI, the losing captain, says that it was a low scoring wicket and the score was good one to chase. About their batting, he said that they failed tonight as they played bad shots and kept losing wickets to soft dismissals. On the Kiwi bowling, he said that they bowled well but India were loose while chasing. When inquired about his injury, he confirms that all looks fine.
KANE WILLIAMSON, the winning captain says that they are pleased with the result. About the score, he said that the Kiwis got a good one and believed that it was a tough to chase. About their batting, he said that they wanted to bat freely in the initial overs and thus it helped. About the team selection, he said that selection is always a tough job and thankfully it worked out for them tonight. At the end, he confirms that the best way to defend that total was to bowl well and take wickets.
MITCHELL SANTNER, Man Of The Match, says that it was a good pitch. India bowled well too but so did his own team. When asked about his batting along with Anderson, he says that it was tough to get going and then they decided to play their game, worked on singles and thus built the momentum. When asked about his bowling, he said that Jadeja bowled fast so they wanted to bowl slow and in good areas. Thanks his luck that it worked out.
The big flaw for India tonight was their batting as they never got the momentum under their wings. They couldn't build a partnership and Dhoni was the lone warrior. At the end, New Zealand maintained their record of never losing a T20I match to India. A comprehensive win for the Black Caps. Stay tuned for the presentation.
India have been stunned here by New Zealand for their second lowest total in T20Is. After being asked to chase, India never looked in the game. They kept losing wickets every now and then. The pitch was slow and thus, New Zealand went on with their spinning web. Mitchell Santner bowled well for his 4 wickets and so did Nathan McCullum for a couple. Sodhi too bowled a brilliant spell and kept the scoring under the radar, taking the crucial wicket of Kohli.
