H Bennett to Y Chahal, Spears in a very full ball on middle, Chahal defends it back to the bowler. That's more the line and length they should be bowling, particularly to the tail-enders.

K Jamieson to Y Chahal, FOUR! Jamieson is not smart with his plans here. Bangs in a short ball outside off, Chahal picks it and cleverly tries to ramp it down to third man. The ball flies off the outside edge down to third man for a boundary. India are smelling a come from behind victory!

Score241 - 8

K Jamieson to Y Chahal, What a shot and what a stop in the deep! Short in length and outside off, Chahal plays a controlled pull shot over mid-wicket. It's destined to go to the fence but Chapman comes haring across to his left, dives full length and pulls it back just before the fencing. Saves two.

K Jamieson to R Jadeja, Smart bowling by Jamieson! He follows the batsman down the leg side with a short of a length ball. Jadeja fails to work it away and is hit on the thigh pad. They collect a leg bye.

Overs46.2
Score238 - 8

K Jamieson to R Jadeja, Great running between the wickets yet again! A smart shot as well. Jamieson lands it on a length close to off, Jadeja helps it with gentle hands to mid-wicket and scampers back for the second run as the bowler himself gives the chase. Jamieson slides near the edge of the circle to field the ball and then has a shy at the bowler's end. But no harm done. FIFTY FOR JADEJA! Sir brandishes his bat like a sword to celebrate it. The job is still not done though.

Score233 - 8

H Bennett to Y Chahal, ANOTHER RUN OUT MISSED. Full and outside off, Chahal drives it towards mid off and takes off for the single. Colin de Grandhomme charges to the ball and has a shy at the bowler's end. Misses. Had he hit, Chahal was a goner. The fielder from mid-wicket misses the throw while backup and there are more runs available as fine leg has to get to the ball. Jadeja charges back for the overthrow but Chahal has backed up too far and cannot return!

Score231 - 8

H Bennett to Y Chahal, RUN OUT MISSED! Jadeja was a goner. Taylor fumbles under pressure. A length ball outside off, Chahal taps it towards point and sets off for a single. Jadeja knows it is a suicidal call and gives up halfway. But Taylor, in a hurry to release the ball, fumbles and misfires a bad throw. Well away even from the man who has come to backup the throw at the striker's end.

K Jamieson to Y Chahal, Around off, watchfully defended. End of a successful over for New Zealand. But they find themselves in the scenario where they were multiple times in the T20Is. Will this be another choke?

K Jamieson to N Saini, OUT! BOWLED! Jamieson roars. The slower ball does the trick. This was not far from being sent out of the stadium. This is on a length and Saini is ready with his pull. But the slower ball comes on late and the bat swing is already completed by then. The ball skids on and hits the leg stump. End of a sensational stand of 76 in 80 balls. Saini departs for a wonderful 45 from 49 balls. Momentum with India now. 45 from 33 balls required.

K Jamieson to N Saini, SIX! PLUNDERED! How about that? You hit me for a six, I shall return the favour! A shorter ball, outside off, Saini backs away and slaps it over cover for half a dozen!
