  • 49.6

    FOUR! Tim Southee to Navdeep Saini. Off cutter full toss, off stump on the front foot driving, well timed in the air under control past long off for 4 runs. Nice finish to the innings from Saini. He is able to get underneath this low full toss and lift it over mid off for four.

    A decent total on the board from India, but they will be disappointed not to post a little more. KL Rahul stands out with his fourth ODI century, in what was a marvellous innings. Shreyas Iyer carried on his form as well with a handy 62, and Prithvi Shaw and Mandey Pandey chipped in with forties also. The Kiwis were a little sloppy in the field at times. They were excellent at the top and at the death with the ball, though. Hamish Bennett nipped in with four wickets. It should be an exciting chase to come. Will New Zealand make it 3-0? Or can India get a consolation win?

  • 49.5

    Tim Southee to Ravindra Jadeja. Full toss, outside off stump on the front foot driving, to backward point for 1 run, shy attempt by Taylor.

  • 49.5

    Wide Tim Southee to Ravindra Jadeja. Full toss, wide outside off stump down the track driving, missed to wicketkeeper for 1 run, fielded by Latham.

  • 49.4

    FOUR! Tim Southee to Ravindra Jadeja. Off cutter length ball, outside off stump moves in front Scoop, well timed in the air under control past fine leg for 4 runs. Clever from Jadeja. He walks across his stumps, and ramps it over short fine leg for four.

  • 48.3

    FOUR! Hamish Bennett to Navdeep Saini. Slower length ball, outside off stump on the front foot Slog, inside edge past fine leg for 4 runs. Agonisingly close to the five-for. Saini hacks across the line, gets a thin inside edge, and the ball shaves past the leg stump to trickle away for four.

  • 48.2

    OUT! Caught. Hamish Bennett to Shardul Thakur. Full toss, middle stump on the front foot Slog, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep backward square leg, by de Grandhomme. Very close to a no-ball for over waist height, but it is just ok. Thakur tries to clobber it over the legside, but totally miscues. The bat turns in the hands on impact, the ball goes up a long way, and de Grandhomme pouches it nicely. Four wickets for Bennett!

  • 48.1

    Hamish Bennett to Shardul Thakur. Slower ball half volley, outside off stump on the front foot driving, missed to wicketkeeper for no runs, fielded by Latham.

    Hamish Bennett to Ravindra Jadeja. Length ball, middle stump on the front foot Steer, to backward point for no runs, fielded by Taylor.

  • 46.5

    OUT! Caught. Hamish Bennett to Manish Pandey. Length ball, outside off stump down the track driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long on, by Santner. Two in two for Bennett. Pandey holes out to long on now. A little shimmy down the pitch, he attempts to launch it out the park, but it comes off the bottom end of the bat. Simple catch for Santner in the deep.

  • 46.4

    OUT! Caught. Hamish Bennett to Lokesh Rahul. Back of a length, outside off stump down the track driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long off, by Jamieson. Jamieson hangs on this time! He gets another chance straight away, and the ball nestles into the hands comfortably. Rahul attempting to up the tempo, but he just didn't get enough elevation on this shot. It is the end of a glorious innings from the number five.

  • 46.3

    SIX! Hamish Bennett to Lokesh Rahul. Half volley, outside off stump down the track driving, in the air uncontrolled over long off for 6 runs, dropped catch by Jamieson. Shocker from Jamieson. A regulation catch at long off for the fast bowler, but he can only tip it over the rope for a maximum. Very costly.

  • 46.2

    Hamish Bennett to Manish Pandey. Off cutter length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, to long on for 1 run, fielded by Santner.

  • 46.1

    Hamish Bennett to Lokesh Rahul. Off cutter back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, to long on for 1 run, fielded by Santner. The stand ticks over to one hundred. Back to back ton partnerships for India. They need a quick finish from these two now.

  • End of Over 46
    Over 46. 20 runs. Bowler: Shardul Thakur. New Zealand: 293/5 (rr 6.37)
  • 45.6

  • 47.1

    FOUR! Shardul Thakur to Colin de Grandhomme. Slower ball full toss, middle stump on the front foot flick, well timed past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. Low full toss, whipped away through mid wicket, and it pierces the infield to give the runs that New Zealand needed to secure the win.

    Another brilliant performance by the hosts. They were able to restrict the India total by bowling well at the death, and cruised the chase most of the way, apart from a little blip in the middle. Martin Guptill got off to a flyer, Henry Nicholls was the anchor, and Colin de Grandhomme finished things off with a wonderful cameo. India had one positive in KL Rahul's fourth ODI century, but not much else went their way. The Kiwis take the series 3-0.

    Both of these sides attention will now turn to the Test format, which will begin next Thursday.

  • 45.5

    FOUR! Shardul Thakur to Colin de Grandhomme. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, inside edge past fine leg for 4 runs. It's streaky, but it brings up a marvellous fifty for de Grandhomme. He flings the bat at this, gets a thick inside edge, and it scurries away to the fine leg fence.

  • 45.4

    SIX! Shardul Thakur to Colin de Grandhomme. Slower ball short, outside off stump on the back foot cutting, well timed in the air under control over deep cover for 6 runs. That's a remarkable shot. The power of the man is incredible. Flat-batted over the offside for six.

    FOUR! Shardul Thakur to Colin de Grandhomme. Short, outside off stump on the back foot hooking, top edge in the air uncontrolled past fine leg for 4 runs.

  • 44.4

    FOUR! Jasprit Bumrah to Colin de Grandhomme. Full toss, middle stump on the front foot flick, well timed past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. De Grandhomme is injecting the pace at the back end, which is exactly what the Kiwis were after. He clips a full toss away through mid wicket, and the ball flies away to the rope.

  • 44.3

    Jasprit Bumrah to Tom Latham. Off cutter back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot working, to mid wicket for 1 run, fielded by Agarwal.

  • 43.5

    FOUR! Navdeep Saini to Tom Latham. Back of a length, to leg down the track driving, well timed past long off for 4 runs. Latham nearly takes out his partner there. He shimmies down the wicket, and bludgeons this back down the ground for four. Brutal.

  • 43.4

    APPEAL! Navdeep Saini to Colin de Grandhomme. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot flick, bat-pad to short third man for 1 run, fielded by Jadeja, appeal made for L.B.W. Two noises on this one. Excellent call by the umpire. Spot on.

    FOUR! Shardul Thakur to Colin de Grandhomme. Slower ball back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, well timed in the air under control past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. Same again, but de Grandhomme doesn't put as much behind this. A more controlled shot, and he smashes it over mid wicket for four.

  • 42.5

    SIX! Shardul Thakur to Colin de Grandhomme. Slower ball back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. Heaved over the legside for six more. Knuckle ball from Thakur, it gets picked by de Grandhomme, and he belts it over the rope.
