NZ 230-9 (50 ovs) vs India | Scorecard


Bumrah comes back as he starts with a superb delivery, beating Southee all ends up with a full delivery which moves away and goes close to the edge.

Southee takes one from the second ball before Santner is unable to get a run from the next three balls. He throws his bat at the next ball, hitting it straight back to Bumrah, who is unable to hold on to the tough chance on his follow through as it comes to him at an awkward height.

The two pacers will finish off here as Bhuvneshwar comes on from the other end.

Southee has a wild swing but gets an inside edge which goes to the vacant fine leg region for a four. He takes a single from the fifth ball before Santner manages one leg bye from the last ball.

In the next over, Southee takes a single to bring up India's 200, in the 47th over.

New Zealand's tailenders are restricted to only ones and twos in the final overs as two pacers bowl a good line and length and mix up their quite well.

Southee looking for the big hit against Bhuvneshwar but gets one courtesy of an inside edge on the leg side.

Santner slaps a wide delivery wide of long-off for two runs before he inside edges the next ball for a boundary fine on the leg side as 11 come from the over.

Southee gets an inside edge as Bumrah foxes him with the slower ball before he carts the next ball over midwicket for a six. He comes down the track and drives Bumrah through the covers for two runs and then keeps out a yorker for one to long-on.

Santner lofts the last ball down the ground but holes to captain Kohli at long-off to perish for 29 as New Zealand lose their ninth wicket.

Trent Boult is struck on the pads by a full delivery by Bumrah but the umpire turns it down. With nothing to lose and just one over left, the Indians decide to take the DRS but the ball is slipping down the leg side and missing the stumps.

Bhuvneshwar to bowl the final over. He concedes nine from the over as New Zealand finish on 230 for nine in their 50 overs with Southee unbeaten on 25 from 22 balls.
