This has been a brilliant performance by New Zealand, with all their key players showcasing their skills. Tim Seifert, Devon Conway, and Daryl Mitchell set up New Zealand's massive total. Indian bowlers, despite playing an extra pacer, went for plenty. In reply, India kept losing wickets at regular intervals, but Rinku Singh and Shivam Dube kept the Men in Blue in the hunt. However, an unfortunate dismissal for Dube on 65 off 24, saw India get bundled out for 165.
