8.40pm That final over has given New Zealand some momentum, but India will fnacy themselves with so much dew now especially because it was only the spinners that kept them down. So if the dew makes New Zealand's spinners ineffective, this could be an easy win for India. New Zealand, on the other hand, will want wickets before the ball gets wet. Watch out for a lot of cutters from the fast bowlers too. India's spinners: 10-0-56-3, fast bowlers: 10-0-119-3. Hemant Brar will bring you the chase

Arshdeep Singh to Mitchell, 2 runs, nails the yorker again, dug out towards long-off, and they will steal the second

Arshdeep Singh to Mitchell, 2 runs, looks for the ramp, Arshdeep gets the wide yorker right, Mitchell gets an inside edge and they steal the second. Kuldeep can't get the throw in. It has gone only as far as the 30-yard circle

Arshdeep Singh to Mitchell, no run, gets the wide yorker right this time, jammed into the ground and straight to Kishan

Pandya has a chat with Arshdeep. Mitchell sits deep. A slower length ball is not a bad ball for him

19.3

Arshdeep Singh to Mitchell, FOUR, Mitchell sits deep in the crease, Arshdeep looks for the wide yorker, and ends up bowling a low full toss. Mitchell places it wide of point for four more. Twenty-three off three so far
19.2

Arshdeep Singh to Mitchell, SIX, that is 19 off two balls. Misses the yorker again, and Mitchell loves it in his driving slot. Goes over wide long-on. Fifty off 26 after having scored a run-a-ball 16 or so

Over the wicket now

Arshdeep Singh to Mitchell, SIX, slower short ball, and Mitchell beats the fielder at deep square leg. He has gone deep in the crease, and pulled it at catching height, but fine of the man

Arsh oversteps again. Bring out the counter. I was wrong. Free hit coming up

Arshdeep Singh to Mitchell, (no ball) SIX, this is good batting. Arshdeep misses the yorker slightly, and Mitchell smashes him over long-on for a six. Also a no-ball

Shivam Mavi to Santner, OUT, superb comeback from Mavi too. Gets the bouncer right. Head high. Santner is off his feet trying to hook it, but you can't control them from that height. Caught at deep midwicket

Shivam Mavi to Mitchell, 1 run, wide yorker. Nails it. Just the single to long-ff

Shivam Mavi to Santner, 1 run, short of a length, punched to deep cover for one

Shivam Mavi to Santner, FOUR, slightly crafty, slightly lucky for Santner. Mavi bowls a good bouncer, just outside off, and he goes hard at it knowing the top edge will clear short third
18.2
1
Shivam Mavi to Mitchell, 1 run, high full toss, driven to long-on for one. Not high enough to be called a no-ball

Mitchell is the key man for New Zealand here

Shivam Mavi to Santner, 1 run, slower offcutter, 127ks, just around off, pushed for a single

Mavi comes back now. Only his second over

Superb comeback over from Arshdeep. People can stop counting no-balls now

Arshdeep Singh to Santner, 1 run, yorker, spot on, just goes past Arsh for them to get a single

Over the wicket to Santner, the new bat

Arshdeep Singh to Mitchell, OUT, oh he has missed out on runs here plus there might even be a run-out. Slower ball, on a length, on the pads, Mitchell misses, Bracewell wants to sneak in a leg-bye, but Kishan is too quick for him. Caught well short

MG Bracewell run out 1 (4m 2b 0x4 0x6) SR: 50.00

I am not sure if it was deliberate from Arshdeep but it is not a bad idea to bowl length to guys who like to sit deep in the crease. Yorkers to them can become half-volleys. Round the wicket to Mitchell

Arshdeep Singh to Bracewell, 1 run, bouncer, pulls this down to deep square leg for one

Arshdeep Singh to Bracewell, no run, spot-on yorker at 136ks, dug out back to him

Michael Bracewell comes in

Arshdeep Singh to Conway, OUT, is this a slower ball? Not quite. It is bowled at 131ks, and Conway sees it in his zone and looks to clear long-off. It is perhaps just short of driving length, and he is on the crease. Also perhaps slow off the surface. Mis-hits it to long-off

DP Conway c Hooda b Arshdeep Singh 52 (81m 35b 7x4 1x6) SR: 148.57

Arshdeep Singh to Conway, no run, misses out. Slower ball, but short and wide, and he has cut this straight to extra cover
