Plucky Kiwis go in with four pace bowlers. But might feel Ravindra is a good bet for four overs.
India to bat first.

replacing McConchie with Duffy feels like a bad idea already
winning the toss and bowling feels like it might have been a bad idea
oh dear
The good news is that NZ restricted India to under a 100 in the power play. The bad news is that it wasn't by much
Oh dear
England-esque

Sanju Samson has all the time when he is in such form. What is surprising is the consistency he has shown in laln3 must win matches.
4. That was an outstanding cut short. Even Aravinda DSilva would be proud to play one like that.

And yet the pace-off isn't getting hit...
Ferguson not having his best series. Usually a white ball hero.

Out. Abhishek 52(21). Along with Sanju he has set the match for the remaining 13 overs.
100 comes up as well in 7.2 overs.

And now Ravindra gets a wicket. Neesham will go for runs, if he gets a bowl at all. NZ getting this badly wrong.
