India 30-2 (6 ovs) vs NZ | Scorecard

Rohit plays a few dot balls from Southee before he finally cuts loose. Southee attempts a short ball but Rohit pulls it over fine leg region for a six, just about clearing the fielder on the fence, who leaps high and makes a one-handed attempt but can't take the catch.

He repeats the shot off the next ball and this time he clears the fielder comfortably for another six.

Southee continues to bowl short as Rohit pulls again but this time it goes to fine leg for a single as 13 come from the over.

Rohit looks to continue his attack as he gives Boult the charge but is beaten. However, Boult gets his man the very next delivery as Rohit attempts another heave across the line but misses it completely and is bowled for 20 from 18 balls.

A very strange shot from Rohit, who was looking to get on top of the bowlers unlike his natural game when he takes time at the start of the innings before playing a few shots later.

Kedar Jadhav promoted to No. 4 as he gets off the mark with a single from the last ball.
