M Shami to C Munro, OUT! Shami you beauty! Second wicket in two overs and he is roaring. On a good length, gets the ball nipping back into the left-hander. Munro looks to drive it but is totally beaten. The ball goes on to hit the top of middle and New Zealand lose their second wicket. Excellent line and length from Shami. New Zealand's openers are back in the hut. Another dangerous batsman dismissed.

B Kumar to C Munro, FOUR! That is a terrific shot! The timing is excellent. The length is not all that bad, fractionally short of a good length but Munro just lifts his right leg up and plays a Nataraja pull shot through mid-wicket!

M Shami to M Guptill, OUT! Shami strikes! Becomes the fastest to 100 ODI wickets for India. Sets up Guptill perfectly. Inswing, outswing and now another ball moving away. On a good length around off. Moves away a tad. Martin looks to play it on the off side but gets a faint edge and onto the stumps. The lights flash and India are up in celebration. Martin Guptill is a huge wicket. Shami goes past Irfan Pathan to become the fastest Indian to 100 ODI wickets, who took it in 59 games. This is Shami's 56th ODI.

M Shami to M Guptill, Long appeal this time and a confident one but the umpire stays put. Inswinging length ball on off, comes back in. Guptill offers no shot and gets rapped on the pads. India don't opt for a review. Looks like height was the only issue there.

B Kumar to M Guptill, Down the leg side again, flicked away once more but this time fine leg has been placed much squarer. He is moved to long leg and hence, it is just a single.
