New Zealand need 43 from 4 overs for victory

January 29, 2020 15:35

NZ 137-4 (16 ovs) vs India 179-5 | Scorecard

Jadeja comes back for another spell. De Grandhomme picks a tight single to get his captain Williamson back on strike.

Jadeja gets one tor turn and bounce sharply as Williamson is beaten and is lucky that the ball bounced over the stumps.

Williamson then lofts a full delivery from Jadeja back over his head for a six and then swings the next ball over midwicket for another six.

14 runs from the over as New Zealand reach 128 for three in 15 overs, with Williamson stroking 63 from 32 balls.

They need 52 from 5 overs for victory.

Pacer Thakur is called back. The first ball is pitched up as Williamson makes room and lofts it over the long-off fence for a six.

Thakur then goes for the bounce but ends up giving away a wide before the Kiwi captain picks one.

The India fast bowler then checks New Zealand's charge with the wicket of de Grandhomme, who is caught at short thirdman for five.
