India 280-8 (50 ovs) vs NZ | Scorecard

Kohli looks for the big hit against Milne but fails to make proper connection and refuses the single but promptly takes one off the next ball, as it goes on the bounce to deep midwicket.

Bhuveshwar picks one before Kohli again fails to connect with the slower bouncer and again gets just one to long-on for one.

Bhuvneshwar gets it off the middle as he carts the slower ball straight down the ground, over long-on for a much-needed six for the Indians.

In the next over, Kohli smashes Southee back over his head for a straight six but the bowler gets revenge off the next ball.

Kohli goes for another big hit but this time he caught by Boult at long-on to perish after a wonderful innings of 121 from 125 balls, having hit nine fours and two sixes.

Bhuvneshwar continues his good form with the bat in recent months. A short ball from Southee is pulled over fine leg for a four and then shuffles across and pulls the next ball over midwicket for a six.

He tries the shot again but this time he is caught at deep midwicket after a superb cameo of 26 from 14 balls as India finish on 280 for eight in their 50 overs.
