India 96-4 (20 ovs) vs NZ 273-8 | Scorecard
Medium pacer James Neesham into the attack in place of Jamieson, who bowled a good first spell of 1-19 in six overs.
He also starts off with a tidy over to ramp up the pressure, giving away just two singles in his first over.
Iyer inside edges de Grandhomme trying to drive it through the covers as he gets a single to fine leg.
Jadhav looks to break the shackles as he clubs a length ball from the medium pacer back over his head for a four.
The right-hander is then beaten trying to loft it over the covers before he offers no shot to the last ball.
Southee comes back into the attack as he replaces Neesham. Iyer turns the first ball to mid-on for one and Jadhav defends the next few balls before taking a single on the leg side followed by another run off the last ball.
Iyer and Jadhav looking to keep the scoreboard moving with four singles off de Grandhomme before the former launches the last ball over long-off for a six.
India are 96 for four in 20 overs, with Iyer on 38 from 41 balls and Jadhav on nine from 22 balls.
