New Zealand will have to achieve their highest-successful chase against India to take a 1-0 lead. India started steadily, lost their way, rebuilt and then kicked on to get a mammoth score. Iyer brought up his maiden ODI century, Rahul continued to prove his mastery of the No. 5 position after the muddle he's been through, while Kohli did what he normally does, minus the hundred, of course.
