NZ 83-3 (18 ovs) vs India 280-8 | Scorecard

Guptill sustains a painful blow near his groin as Pandya bowls a sharp incoming delivery as he is down in pain before getting up a few minutes later.

He then takes a single from the fifth ball and Taylor takes one from the last ball as just two come from it.

Kuldeep drops short as Guptill cuts it past point for a four and pulls the last ball over midwicket for another boundary as New Zealand 76 for two in 15 overs, with Guptill on 30 and Taylor on eight.

Guptill gets an inside edge off Pandya which goes on the leg side for one and Taylor picks as the medium pacer bowls another good over.

Leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal comes into the attack, replacing Kuldeep, who took one for 17 in three overs.

Taylor goes for the cut but is beaten before he defends the next delivery as Chahal makes a good start.

Pandya is rewarded for his good tight bowling with the wicket of Guptill, who looks to break free but holes out to deep midwicket. Karthik takes a good catch diving forward to send back Guptill, who walks back after scoring 32 from 48 balls.

Pandya is doing a splendid job with the ball, building enough pressure to force the batsmen to make a mistake and give his wicket away. His figures so far read one for 11 in four overs as NZ slip to 83 for three in 18 overs.
