India 154-4 (16 ovs) vs NZ 212-4 | Scorecard

Pacer Kuggeleijn from the other end. Four singles from the first four balls before the fast bowler strikes with the wicket of Pandya, who is caught in the covers after scoring 21 from 11 balls.

Dinesh Karthik defends the last ball as Kuggeleijn bowls a fantastic over, giving away just four singles, while picking up a wicket.

India are losing their way as they slip to 145 for five in 15 overs, needing another 68 runs from five overs for victory.

Mitchell deals India with the killer blow as the claims the big wicket of Dhoni, who aims to loft it down the ground but is caught at long-on for two.

This is highly unlikely of Dhoni, who likes to take the match till the end but with the asking rate growing to 14 per over, he had no option but to go for his shots.

Dinesh Karthik chances his arm but he manages to clear mid-off for two runs before he pulls the next ball for a six.

India are 154 for six in 16 overs, needing 59 runs from four overs for victory.
