      That brings us to the end of this run-fest in Raipur, where India made it 2-0 with a chasing masterclass. Next, we shift our focus to Guwahati and the Barsapara Stadium for the third T20I of this five-match series, with India looking to seal the series and New Zealand needing a win to stay alive. The game will begin at 1.30 pm GMT (7 pm IST), but as always, you can join us early for all the build-up and coverage. For now, thanks for your company, take care, and we will see you at the next one.

      Ishan Kishan is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his outstanding knock of 76 off 32 balls. He says his focus was firmly on what he needed to do and that he was in a good headspace for this game. He feels that at times, you simply know when you are batting well, and it was about watching the ball closely and playing good cricket shots. Chasing 209, Ishan acknowledges the importance of getting a solid start in the Powerplay. Mentions that he was able to connect well from the start and he backed himself. Ishan also highlights the importance of domestic cricket in earning his way back into the national side. He adds that when he was out of the national side, he kept asking himself if he could do it again.

      The victorious skipper of India, Suryakumar Yadav jokingly says that she does not know what Kishan had for lunch. Adds that he has never seen someone bat like that after being 6/2, and then end the Powerplay at around 70. Mentions that they want their batters to play like that and express themselves out there. Tells that he got angry as Kishan did not give him strike in the Powerplay, but he got to assess the conditions. Says that he has been batting really well in the nets and had a good practice and a break before this game. Credit all his bowlers for the way they pulled things back, as at one point he thought they could be chasing 230-odd runs. Ends by saying that the mood in the camp is really good and he is enjoying it and wants to keep it in that space.

      New Zealand's captain Mitchell Santner reflects on the defeat. Asked how much is enough against this Indian side, he cheekily responds that maybe even 300 might not be enough against these guys. Santner says when you come up against a side that bats deep on a good wicket and with the way India came out, it becomes all about trying to squeeze wherever possible. He admits they know that 200 or 210 is unlikely to be enough and that his side needs to go harder with the bat to stay competitive.

      Presentation Time...

      Shivam Dube is in for a chat. He praises the batting from Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav, calling it an amazing effort. Dube says Ishan played exactly what the team required, adding that while it was Abhishek Sharma who stepped up in the previous game, today it was Ishan who led the way. Talking about the mood in the camp after losing two early wickets, Dube jokes that he just told the physio to mobilise his back and shares that the atmosphere in the dressing room was pretty calm. Tells that they knew how the wicket was behaving here and says the belief in the group is strong, with every player having the ability to finish games.When asked about his promotion, he replies that it just depends on the situation. Mentions that the move was probably down to the left-right combination, with Ishan and Suryakumar at the crease and Hardik and himself next in. Tells that he is not really sure what a good total is on such surfaces, but the key to defending the totals is to pick early wickets and bowl well in the Powerplay.

      One Over That Turned the Tide! New Zealand will feel they missed a big opportunity after having the hosts where they wanted, with Henry and Duffy striking early. However, once Santner handed the third over to Foulkes, the momentum completely shifted as he was taken for 26 runs, and the Kiwis never really found a way back into the contest. Foulkes could not recover and ended up conceding 67 runs from his three overs. Sodhi did manage to pick up a wicket in the middle, but by then the damage had already been done. A few uncharacteristic dropped chances further summed up their night, showing just how much pressure they were under, and the wet conditions only added to their woes as they suffered a heavy defeat.

      New Zealand's batting! Earlier in the game, after being asked to bat first, New Zealand posted a big total, although they might feel they left a few runs behind in the middle overs, given the strong start they made. They played with intent throughout despite losing wickets, with most batters getting starts, but the standout contributions came from Ravindra’s 44 off 26 and Santner’s unbeaten 47 off 27, which gave their bowlers a solid cushion in wet conditions. For India, Kuldeep and Varun slowed the scoring by sharing three wickets, while Pandya, Rana and Dube chipped in with one each, and although Arshdeep had a rare off day up front, he did pull things back a bit at the death.

      Kishan and SKY Power India to Record Chase! The big question was whether India could maintain their aggressive approach if Abhishek Sharma failed, and that was answered emphatically in this chase. After both openers were dismissed and India slipped to 6/2, Ishan Kishan continued his fine domestic form and launched a brutal assault on the New Zealand bowlers, bringing up his fifty in just 21 balls and racing to a fiery 76 off 32. SKY initially played second fiddle, but together they added a match-defining 122-run stand that broke the back of the chase. After Kishan’s dismissal, the skipper shifted gears to remain unbeaten on 82 off 37, his first fifty since 2024, while Dube chipped in with three sixes as India sealed their joint-highest successful chase in T20Is.

      Men in Blue make light work of 209! India have made a mockery of this big chase with some incredible hitting. New Zealand might have thought they had a sniff after making early inroads, but that was as good as it got for them as they soon looked helpless and out of ideas. This is a statement win from the Men in Blue, chasing down 209 with more than four overs to spare, and the Kiwis will have plenty to think about, especially in their bowling department.

It flies towards deep backward square leg, where Mark Chapman leaps up and tries to push it back to save the six, but takes his eyes off the ball and it pops over the ropes for a six.

      10.2

      Jacob Duffy to Suryakumar Yadav

      2

      2 runs, Back of a length and on middle, SKY steps across and nudges it towards deep mid-wicket for a couple of runs.

      1

      1 run, Flat and full, at the sticks, Dube taps it to long on and keeps the strike with a single. A good over for New Zealand. A wicket and 5 runs off it. Can they build on this?

      1 run, Short and turning away, outside off, Suryakumar waits on it and steers it wide of short third. They cross.

      1

      1 run, Another wrong'un, short and on off, Dube stays back and pulls it hard towards mid-wicket, where Henry lets it through and concedes a single.

      DRINKS! New Zealand have managed to get rid of Ishan Kishan and break the massive 122-run stand, but the damage has already been done here. They will need a couple of more wickets to put pressure back on India, but with the depth in batting the hosts have, they are favourites at the moment. However, we have seen stranger things happen in cricket, and if the Kiwis manage to test the middle order, they could still make a game out of this one. Also, Shivam Dube is the next batter in.

      End of over 10 ( 0 Runs )

      IND 128/3

      Ishan Kishan* 76(32)

      W

      out, OUT! CAUGHT! The fireworks from Ishan Kishan are over. The googly does the trick for Ish Sodhi. This is flighted, full and outside off, Ishan walks across his stumps and gets low to unleash the slog sweep. He plays against the turn and the ball catches a top edge. It is skied towards short fine leg, where Matt Henry does not quite judge it that well and could have taken a step or two more in front to make the catch easier for himself. He reaches out in front in the end to take the catch. Ishan falls for 76 (32). India are now 128/3, chasing 81 runs from 65 balls.

      3 wickets down for IND. Out batsman is Ishan Kishan

He fails to roll his wrists over the ball and gets a top edge. The ball flies over short fine leg.

      FOUR, FOUR! Just over and that will be FIFTY for Ishan Kishan. Ishan brings up his half-century in 21 balls and this is now the fastest fifty by an Indian in a T20I against New Zealand.

      FOUR, FOUR! Three in a row to end the over! Shorter in length and outside off, Kishan rocks back quicker, extends his arms and punches it sweetly through covers for four more runs. Three dots followed by a hat-trick of boundaries in the over.

      no run, What happened there? Not just the ball, the bat is flying too. Tossed up around off, Kishan camps back to heave it over the leg side but does not quite get hold of it. The inner edge drags it towards square leg, and the bat slips out of his hands, landing nearby as well. It's all happening in Raipur.

      FOUR, FOUR! Much more in control this time! Back of a length and outside off, Kishan frees his arms and absolutely crunches it towards point. Glenn Phillips flings himself to his left to grab it but the ball zips past him for a boundary. If he can't reach it, then no one can.

      Jacob Duffy to Abhishek Sharma

      W

      out, OUT! TAKEN! Jacob Duffy strikes on his first delivery, and there will be no fireworks from Abhishek Sharma in this game. Fuller delivery and on the pads. Just like Samson, Abhishek also picks it up and flicks it but hits it to the longer side of the ground. Also, does not get the distance as it goes straight to deep square leg, where Devon Conway pouches it safely. He makes up for his dropped chance. Sharma departs for a golden duck, and the Kiwis are well and truly on top here.

      An eventful first over. Jacob Duffy will steam in from the other end.

He knows the moment he hits it and the ball lobs up towards mid on, where Rachin Ravindra backtracks and takes a good catch. Samson walks back for 6 off 5, and India are 6/1, chasing 209 runs.
