India 140-0 (15 ovs) vs NZ | Scorecard

Dhawan goes after Sodhi as he pulls a short ball over the fielder at deep midwicket for a six and then slog sweeps the next ball through the same region for a four to take his score to 62, his highest in T20 cricket.

Dhawan picks one before Rohit steers the fifth ball past short thirdman for a couple and then takes one to get 14 from the over.

The experienced Southee comes back. Five singles from the first five balls before Dhawan pulls the last ball over midwicket for a six as India's openers continue to build their score.

Rohit goes after Santner as he hammers the left-arm spinner down the ground over long-on for a huge six to bring up his fifty in some style, from 42 balls.

Santner drops short as Rohit pulls it over midwicket for a four and then plays a cracking cover drive for the same result as New Zealand's bowlers suffer a double attack, with both opener going for their shots.

After 15 overs, India are well placed for a huge score as they reach 140 for no loss with Dhawan on 71 from 47 balls and Rohit on 61 from 45 balls.
