FOUR! Arshdeep Singh to Zak Foulkes. Reverse Swing-Out full toss, middle stump deep in crease flick, well timed in the air under control past deep backward square leg for 4 runs. New Zealand have posted a competitive total on the board. Conway and Seifert gave an electrifying start but were dismissed inside the powerplay. Rachin Ravindra played a brilliant knock but couldn't convert it into a big score. The Indian spinners kept the score in check by controlling the middle overs and picking wickets at regular intervals. Mitchell Santner provided some late fireworks boosting the total past 200. Can the New Zealand bowlers defend this total with a lot of dew in the outfield? Let's find out in a while.

What a run chase from India as they storm to the target with more than four overs to spare. It was a shocking start to their chase as Samson and Abhishek Sharma departed cheaply, but Ishan Kishan's bold attack in the powerplay made a huge impact in the chase. He scored 76 off just 32 balls, and that helped Suryakumar Yadav to take off and regain form, hitting the New Zealand bowlers all over the park to score an unbeaten 82. It was a tough outing for the New Zealand bowlers with the ball and they will look to rectify this within the next game. Ishan Kishan is the Player of the Match.
