- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.4 thin edge barely carries to Dhoni, but he's snapped it low to his right. It's in the corridor, not too much movement. No feet as he prods at this, once again, inside the line. Dhoni looked like he was a lot deeper than fly slip 20/16.6 clips the leg stump after a few deflections. It's a knuckle ball that comes into him from middle stump. It was a good length ball that rose a little. Is that a sign of grip for spinners? We'll see. For now, Munro - he looks to drive through the line, but gets an inside edge onto his front thigh, which then directs the ball onto the stumps 27/35.4 he's been given lbw and he will review it. It looks very out. Caught in the crease in front of middle stump as he was looking to whip this length ball away. There was angle into him, but this isn't going down drastically. Hits him on the flaps and there is no edge...tracker shows it's hitting middle on umpire's call 25/215.6 he's walking. Pandya leaps for joy as he bounces out one of New Zealand's kingpins. Taylor goes for the hook, but only feathers the ball, originally aimlessly wandering down leg, into Dhoni's waiting hands. 58/429.1 knocks over middle stump! Latham attempts the sweep which reaped him such good rewards in Mumbai, but to do so against this ball, which is rather straight, he has to stretch a good way outside off. Unless he makes contact, he is in serious danger. He doesn't. India celebrate. 118/537.5 clean bowled! Tonks leg stump and sends it tumbling. Length ball from slightly wide of the crease, sneaks through his attempted drive on the up. Comprehensively beaten 165/643.1 draws a thick outside edge that carries to short third man. Well bowled. He's anticipated an aggressive shot from the batsman. Tosses it up but gets it to dip quickly, while staying marginally inside the rails. De Grandhomme slashes hard at this but can't get anywhere near it. Well worked out 188/748.5 slices it to long-off. Hasn't been very comfortable today, Santner. Full ball at off stump. Gets the front leg out of the way and tries to go over extra cover with the angle but he toe-ends it to Kohli 220/943.2 given lbw and it looks quite straightforward. It's a slider first up at length. Hits him in front of middle and leg as he plays for the turn on the front foot. He has reviewed. No bat on this...and it has straigtheneed. Hitting middle stump. And that's New Zealand's review gone. 188/8Extras8 (lb 3, w 5)TOTAL230/9 (50 Overs, RR: 4.6)Fall of wickets: 1-20 (Martin Guptill, 2.4 ov), 2-25 (Kane Williamson, 5.4 ov), 3-27 (Colin Munro, 6.6 ov), 4-58 (Ross Taylor, 15.6 ov), 5-118 (Tom Latham, 29.1 ov), 6-165 (Henry Nicholls, 37.5 ov), 7-188 (Colin de Grandhomme, 43.1 ov), 8-188 (Adam Milne, 43.2 ov), 9-220 (Mitchell Santner, 48.5 ov)
- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.3 that's soft, as if someone went up and dared him to give catching practice to short midwicket and he couldn't help himself. Full delivery, tailing in at the last second, cramping Rohit, forcing his head to fall over, his balance to go for a toss, and his bat to feebly hit to the ball to Munro 22/129.2 chips it straight to extra cover. Loose dismissal. He steps down the track to try and go inside out. It's back of a length and it looks like he's late on it. Can't open the face quickly enough and there isn't enough room either. It hurries on and hits high on the bat. A feeble end to his innings 145/313.5 caught behind, excellent work from Latham! It's the cross-seamer, which tends to bounce a touch more if the seam hits the pitch. Kohli, going for a drive, away from his body feathers a nick to the wicketkeeper, who has done really well, standing up. Rising with the ball, taking it ever so smoothly 79/240.1 sweeps a full toss to fine leg! New Zealand are ginning away at pulling off such a coup, with Santner firing a quicker ball at the pads and Pandya obliging him by picking out the fielder. Still, with only 27 to get in nearly 10 overs, that's not too costly a wicket 204/4Extras16 (lb 7, w 9)TOTAL232/4 (46 Overs, RR: 5.04)Fall of wickets: 1-22 (Rohit Sharma, 4.3 ov), 2-79 (Virat Kohli, 13.5 ov), 3-145 (Shikhar Dhawan, 29.2 ov), 4-204 (Hardik Pandya, 40.1 ov)
