India 16-1 (4 ovs) vs NZ | Scorecard

Left-arm pacer Trent Boult to bowl the second over. Dhawan edges the first ball but it falls short of the slips before he taps the next ball on the off-side and gets off strike with a quick single.

Boult overpitches as Rohit delights his home fans with a sweetly timed drive through the covers for three runs as the fielder does well to stop it just inside the ropes as four come from the over.

In the next over, Rohit steers the first ball to thirdman for one before Dhawan pulls the next to fine leg for another run.

Rohit then lofts a length ball back over the bowler but hasn't timed it too well and picks up two runs as India reach 16 for no loss in three overs.

Boult strikes in his second over. Dhawan throws his bat at a wide one but only gets an edge and is caught behind for nine as India lose an early wicket.

Virat Kohli cautiously defends the rest of the over as Boult bowls a wicket maiden with India reduced to 16 for one in four overs.
