NZ 187-2 (19 ovs) vs India | Scorecard


India's fielding has been very poor today. Bhuvneshwar foxes Munro who is deceived by the slower ball and ends up chipping it on the off-side but Chahal puts down a simple catch in the covers.

Munro tries the reverse sweep but Bhuvneshwar again foxes him with the slower ball.

The left-hander then throws his bat at a wide ball but gets an outside edge which goes past short thirdman for a four as the runs continue to flow.

Munro continues to attack Siraj. This time he hammers the first ball of his final over down the ground for a six to take his score to 90.

Tom Bruce then shuffles across and scoops the pacer over wicketkeeper Dhoni for a four to get 16 from the over.

A forgettable debut for the debutant pacer as Siraj takes one for 53 in his four overs in his first international game.

Bumrah comes back as India look to end well and keep NZ under the 200-run mark.

He starts off well as he gives away just two singles from the first four balls before Munro flicks the fifth ball to square leg for two runs and keeps strike with one from the last ball.

Munro races to his century from just 54 balls in the next over with two runs through the covers off Bhuvneshwar.

The big positive for India has been that New Zealand have not managed to hit any boundary in the last two overs, while getting only 13 runs from it.
