India 186-4 (18 ovs) vs NZ 203-5 | Scorecard

Debutant Bennett comes back into the attack with New Zealand needing a wicket to push India on the backfoot. The first ball is on the pads as Iyer nudges it behind square for a four and then shuffles across before he clips the next over midwicket for another boundary.

Iyer makes room as Bennett goes short and makes the late adjustment of trying the ramp shot but is unable to make connection.

A good length ball from Bennett which Iyer can hit down to long-on for one as he races to 40 from 23 balls.

Pandey swings hard but can't get hold of the pick up shot as he gets a single to deep square leg.

The last ball is down the leg side as Iyer misses the glance and can only get a leg bye as the wicketkeeper is unable to collect it.
