OUT! Ravindra Jadeja is caught at long-off. He had to go for big shot and perishes in the process. A well-fought knock from Jadeja but he fails to take his side across the line. R Jadeja c de Grandhomme b Neesham 55(73)

OUT! Yuzvendra Chahal is run-out. Slight mis-field and batsmen think about going for second. Chahal is sent back by Ravindra Jadeja and he falls short of the crease at the striker's end. Y Chahal run out (Neesham/Latham) 10(12)

India needs 28 more runs to win from last three overs. Ravindra Jadeja has completed his half-century and he is important to India's success. Interestingly, he is showing a lot of confidence in Yuzvendra Chahal and had exposed him to the strike.

Ravindra Jadeja holds key for India now. 40 needed off last four and that's ten runs per over. With Jadeja still there, India are in contention. However, New Zealand have slight advantage.

OUT! Navdeep Saini departs. Kyle Jamieson strikes. Navdeep smashed Jamieson for a six and then on next ball, the bowler gets his revenge. India now eight down and Kiwis will be somewhat relieved. End of a fine knock by Saini. N Saini b Jamieson 45(49)

Superb over for India as Navdeep Saini hits Colin de Grandhomme for three fours in this over. CDG concedes 16 runs and that brings the asking rate down to 8.67. This partnership is now worth 69 off 77 balls.

The partnership between Ravindra Jadeja and Navdeep Saini is now worth 51 off 65 balls. India now need 70 more runs to win from 48 balls. The required run-rate is worth 8.75.

We are down to last ten overs and India need 85 more runs to win. Ravindra Jadeja is batting on 37 off 54 balls. Jadeja has batted in similar situation before and almost helped India win the World Cup semis. Can he do it this time around?

In 13 more overs, India need 102 runs to win this match and they have just three wickets in hand. The required run-rate for India is 7.85. Ravindra Jadeja is still out there and Indian fans will have some hopes of fightback.

OUT! Colin de Grandhomme strikes, his second wicket. Shardul Thakur departs as the ball goes between bat and pad. India seven down now as Kiwis take further control in the game. S Thakur b de Grandhomme 18(15)

OUT! Just after completing his half-century, Shreyas Iyer edges one to the wicket-keeper. India six down and the trouble continues. Hamish Bennett picks his second wicket. S Iyer c Latham b Bennett 52(57)

Halfway through and India are in some sort of trouble. The Men in Blue now need 166 runs to win from 150 balls. Shreyas Iyer is nearing towards his half-century as Ravindra Jadeja joins him in the middle. Meanwhile, Tim Southee finishes his quota of 10 overs, he finishes with figures of 2/41.

OUT! Just when things were starting to look good for India, Kedar Jadhav departs. He hits it straight to Henry Nicholls at cover. Soft dismissal this. K Jadhav c Henry Nicholls b Southee 9(27)

After 20 overs the equation for India now reads 178 runs to win off 180 balls. The required run-rate for Men in Blue is 5.93. Meanwhile, Shreyas Iyer is batting on 38 off 41 balls while Kedar Jadhav is on 9 off 22 balls.

Kedar Jadhav is the new batsman in for India. Shreyas Iyer is looking good and India needs him to bat till the end. New Zealand, on the other hand, will be looking to not allow this partnership to settle. 

OUT! KL Rahul chops one back on to the wicket. India four down now as Colin de Grandhomme strikes in his first over. Rahul plays a poor shot, he was looking to cut the ball and gets an inside edge. Rahul b de Grandhomme 4(8)

KL Rahul is the new batsman in for India. The Men in Blue have lost top-order cheaply and Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul will have to stitch a partnership here. The required run-rate for New Zealand is under six runs.

OUT! BIG wicket this for New Zealand. Tim Southee cleans up Indian captain Virat Kohli. The ball came into the right-hander, and goes on between bat and pad to hit the stumps. V Kohli b Southee 15(25)

Having lost two wickets early, the onus now lies on Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer to guide India close to New Zealand's target. This is a good start for New Zealand and they slightly have the advantage.
