India vs New Zealand, Live Score, 2nd T20I Match, India vs New Zealand 2017

Y Chahal to M Guptill, OUT! Stop the press. A wicket has fallen. Excellent bowling from Chahal. He gives this just a little bit of more loop than the previous one and Guptill lines himself up for the slog sweep. But he is not to the pitch of the ball and ends up mistiming it high in the air. Hardik Pandya at long off keeps his eyes on the ball and takes it easily. No half century for Guptill but he has played a wonderful innings. Can his team make use of this 105-run opening stand?

M Siraj to K Williamson, OUT! Straight to the man! Maiden international wicket for Siraj! Proud moment for him. Not the best of balls, a half volley around middle and off, should have been put away. Williamson goes for the half-flick, half-scoop but finds Rohit Sharma to perfection at deep square leg. Perhaps not a bad wicket to lose for New Zealand. India will not mind though.

T Boult to R Sharma, OUT! Two wickets in the same over for Boult! What a start for the Kiwis! Both the Indian openers are sent packing early. Once again Boult slants it away on a length outside off, Sharma just tries to use the pace and guide it away. It goes towards the keeper and New Zealand put in a loud appeal. The umpire after thinking for a while raises his finger. There was certainly a deflection there and don't know why it took him time to rule it out. Rohit walks back dejected.

T Boult to S Dhawan, OUT! Bowled 'em! Trent Boult is up and running! Perfect start for the Kiwis this! He bowls a length delivery, angling in from around off. Dhawan tries to heave it across the line but misses and sees his middle stump pegged back. Superb from Trent and India have been rocked early.

C Munro to S Iyer, OUT! Munro strikes! He can do nothing wrong today! What a day this man is having! Bowls a slower delivery outside off, Iyer looks to big down the ground. Gets it off the toe end of the bat and the ball lobs over the bowler. Munro keeps running backwards, keeps his eyes on the ball and then stretches his hands to take an excellent catch. The ball almost popped out of his hands. These catches are never easy. Iyer departs and a wicket at the right time for the Kiwis.

M Santner to V Kohli, OUT! Stumped? Caught? It is a dismissal and that is what matters for New Zealand. Big moment in the game. Santner fires this onto the pads on seeing Kohli come down the track and the batsman looks to go inside out. He misses and the keeper collects the ball on the second attempt, after fumbling initially. He is overjoyed and appeals for the catch but then has the presence of mind to whip the bails off. Kohli knows he has edged it and does not even bother to get back. He departs for 65. The 56-run stand is broken but it consumed 44 balls. Did that consume the skipper? India now need 74 from 21 balls.

Ish Sodhi to H Pandya, OUT! Bowled! Sodhi dismisses Pandya yet again. He gets the better of him twice in as many games. Bowls an excellent googly on middle, Hardik doesn't pick it up at all. The ball skids, cramps him for room and sneaks under the bat to hit the stumps. Lovely from Sodhi, he is continuing from where he left off. India under pressure now.

T Boult to MS Dhoni, OUT! Mr. Butter Fingers takes it! Santner was the one to drop Dhoni in the previous over and it is Santner who denies MS his half century. A short ball, Dhoni looks to pull but gets a top edge which just spoons to square leg. Mitchell Santner does not have to move an inch and takes a sitter. A forgetful innings for Dhoni.

T Boult to A Patel, OUT! Soft dismissal. Jumps down the track, Boult bangs it in short, Axar looks to go over cover but can only spoon it straight to Kane Williamson at short cover. Tonight might have been a big ask, but have to say - Axar has disappointed with the bat in his comeback to the national squad.
