October 22, 2017  21:09


NZ 243-3 (44 ovs) vs India 280-8 | Scorecard

Pandya comes back as New Zealand easily collect six runs from the medium pacer's final over, as he finishes with one for 46 in 10 overs.

Chahal comes back from the other end as it gets quite desperate for India with New Zealand running away with the game.

Latham tries the sweep but misses before he connects with the next for a single and Taylor does the same.

Chahal drifts wide as Latham slaps him behind point for a couple forcing Dhoni to have a long chat with the young leg-spinner.

The left-hander reverse sweeps the next ball for just a single to deep point for one.

Kuldeep comes back as Latham reverses the first ball from the spinner behind point for a four. He is beaten off the next ball before he sweeps the next to fine leg for one. Another single to Taylor raises the 150-run stand between the duo before Latham picks two runs from the last ball.

India's bowlers have not been able to put any sort of pressure with Taylor and Latham picking singles at will and the odd boundary in between.

Three singles from the first three balls before Latham sweeps Chahal as it goes over substitute fielder Manish Pandey at deep square leg for a six, who makes a sluggish effort expecting the ball to sail over.

Two singles from the last two balls as Chahal finishes wicketless, giving away 51 runs from his 10 overs.

New Zealand in control on 243 for three in 43 overs, needing 38 runs from six overs for victory.
