249.649.6: Prasidh Krishna to Kristian Clarke, Prasidh angles it into the batter on a good length, Kristian Clarke makes room and heaves it into the deep square leg and deep fine leg gap. Ravindra Jadeja gets across to his left and cuts it off, but the batters run for a couple. The throw from Jadeja is a bit wide of the keeper, and Jamieson looks to take the third, but Kristian has run far at the other end, so, they settle with a couple only. 14 runs off the final over. NEW ZEALAND FINISH EXACTLY AT 300/8!

349.349.3: Prasidh Krishna to Kristian Clarke, Up in the air... lands safely! And an outstanding run between the wickets. Slower length ball, outside off. Kristian Clarke mistimes his slash over cover and point and lands in the vacant real estate in the deep point region. Mohammed Siraj is a bit slow to get to the ball from the inner ring and that allows the batters an extra room to pinch in the third run.
449.249.2: Prasidh Krishna to Kristian Clarke, EDGED, FOUR! New Zealand will take it no matter how the runs come! An attempted yorker, on off, Kristian Clarke shapes up to drill that through cover, but gets a fat outside edge. There's no one in the deep third region and the ball races away to the fence.

047.447.4: Prasidh Krishna to Daryl Mitchell, OUT! LBW! Krishna with a massive wicket in the backend. This is full and straight, in line of the stumps, slightly nipping back into the batter. Daryl Mitchell tries to smoke it over long on by clearing his front leg, but swings over the line and wears it on the back pad. A big appeal for LBW, and up goes the finger. Daryl Mitchell goes upstairs straightaway and takes a review. There is a daylight gap between bat and the ball and Ball Tracking shows three reds with the ball projected to crash in the leg stump. A fine, fine knock from Daryl Mitchell. Wickets kept falling around him, but he held his ground. 84 off 71 from him. New Zealand are 281/8.
447.347.3: Prasidh Krishna to Daryl Mitchell, FOUR MORE! Off the top edge! At 127.8 kph, this is short and over the shoulders, Daryl Mitchell tries to pull, tries to play it a bit fine, but gets it off the top edge and the ball races away to the deep fine leg fence for a boundary.

446.646.6: Harshit Rana to Kristian Clarke, FOUR! Excellent placement! Harshit is fuming at the fielder for not reacting quickly to that shot. Slower ball, wide outside off, on a good length. Kristian Clarke waits for it and uses his wrists to steer it to the right of short third. It has enough wheels on it to beat the deep point fielder to his left to hug the fence.

044.544.5: Harshit Rana to Daryl Mitchell, WIDE! Slower bouncer again and around off, just a bit too high. Daryl Mitchell shuffles across to scoop it away but misses. Called a wide but Rana is not happy with that decision.

Ravindra Jadeja is a bit late to move to his left as he does not expect it to be timed that well. He dives over to let it through for a boundary. You do not expect that from Jaddu.

Zakary Foulkes stays back and tries to guide it very late, but this is too close to his body. He ends up getting an inside edge and the ball rattles the stumps behind.

Harshit Rana bowls this in the blockhole, on middle, Daryl Mitchell jams it out towards long on, and calls for the second run. However, Shreyas Iyer is quick to run forward, picks it up with one hand and hits the bullseye at the bowler's end, with Michael Bracewell struggling to make his ground while completing the second run. He does not look that confident, and the replay shows that he is short of his crease. The Kiwi skipper goes back for 16 off 18, and New Zealand are 237/6 now.

He drags it off the inside half, and it sails over Sundar, who was stationed a few yards inside the rope.

Devon Conway reads it well and drives it beautifully in the gap between extra cover and mid off.

15.25.2: Harshit Rana to Henry Nicholls, IN THE AIR AND DROPPED! Kuldeep Yadav is not one of the best of the fielders, but that was a regulation chance. Harshit is shell-shocked and the camera pans on Gill who has a straightish look, hiding his disappointment. On a back of a length, outside off, Henry Nicholls slashes hard, but gets a thick outside edge that flies at catchable height towards deep third. The ball dips a bit in front of Kuldeep, as he runs in off the ropes, a bit to his left, but just doesn't get himself into a comfortable position to catch it. He opts to go down a bit, his left knee jars on the ground, and because of the jerk, the ball pops out of his palms to roll away for a single.

KL Rahul wants the run but is sent back. The fielder takes aim and has a shy at the bowler's end but misses. Even if he had hit the stumps, Rahul was in. There is no backup and the ball rolls away in the deep, which allows the single. This is ordinary cricket from New Zealand after being so sharp in the field for most of the innings. 
147.647.6: Zakary Foulkes to Washington Sundar, Pitched up and angling into the pads, Washington Sundar chips it in the air but on the bounce to deep fine leg for one more. 12 needed in 12 now.

146.346.3: Kristian Clarke to Washington Sundar, Lovely shot! Fuller delivery, on off, Washington Sundar shows the full face of the bat and lifts it over mid off. Daryl Mitchell runs after and dives to push it back inside. However, as soon as Sundar played the shot, he looked in a lot of pain and only managed to get a single by hobbling gingerly to the other end. He was also seen holding his back. Might have just tweaked it a bit. 
046.246.2: Kristian Clarke to Harshit Rana, OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Kristian Clarke gets his MAIDEN ODI WICKET! He is ecstatic and so are the Kiwis as they see another twist in the tale. Clarke hits the length hard this time, on middle, gets some extra bounce.

Rana goes back after playing a handy knock of 29 off 23.

043.543.5: Zakary Foulkes to Harshit Rana, IN THE AIR AND DROPPED! Daryl Mitchell, of all people! We just saw an absolutely brilliant effort in the field the last ball, and it is followed by a schoolboy error. Short of a length outside off, the slower one at 102 kph. Rana backs away and flat-bats it straight down the throat of Mitchell at long on. He gets comfortably underneath it and spills a sitter. Harshit had already started to walk off but gets a slice of luck.
243.443.4: Zakary Foulkes to Harshit Rana, My word! Glenn Phillips is everywhere. Stops yet another boundary. Who says Kiwis cannot fly? That ball had no business getting cut off. Short and drifting down the leg stump, as Rana steps down the track. Harshit swivels and pulls it out to deep backward square leg for a brace, with Phillips sprinting and flinging himself to his right to intercept it. Just two.
143.343.3: Zakary Foulkes to KL Rahul, Rolls his fingers on the leather, short and on middle, KL Rahul pulls it to deep backward square leg for a single.

143.143.1: Zakary Foulkes to KL Rahul, Full and on the pads, KL Rahul flicks it to the mid-wicket region and the call is for two.

442.642.6: Kristian Clarke to Harshit Rana, FOUR! SMASHED! Harshit ends the boundary drought for India. It was an outstanding over from the young Clarke until this delivery. Speared fuller, outside off, Harshit backs away to give himself room and slashes hard at it.

141.541.5: Kyle Jamieson to Harshit Rana, A massive mix-up but no harm done! Back of a length, outside off, Harshit Rana hops off and punches it to deep backward point for a single. KL Rahul is glued to the crease after completing the single, but Harshit Rana is already halfway for the double and has to retreat back. He does so with a dive, before the throw comes in at the keeper's end, and Mitch Hay underarms the throw to the bowler's end. Looks like he has jarred his left shoulder on the dive, and needs some medical assistance. 
041.441.4: Kyle Jamieson to Harshit Rana, Nagging length, angling on the leg stump line, Harshit Rana punches it to mid on.

Shreyas Iyer plays a loose shot over the line and gets beaten on the inside edge as the ball smashes into the stumps behind. The off pole goes for a walk. This game is wide open now. Shreyas Iyer departs on 49 off 47 and India are 242/5. They were 234/2 at one stage. JAMIESON IS ON A HAT TRICK!
140.640.6: Zakary Foulkes to Shreyas Iyer, Nips in off the pitch, on a good length, on middle. Shreyas heaves it off the toe end to widish square leg for a single. The equation - India need 59 off 54 balls.

He ends up just chipping it straight to mid on, where Kristian Clarke gets low to his front to take a simple catch. Jadeja is not happy with himself at all, but has to walk back for 4 off 5, and India are 239/4 now, chasing 301 runs.

039.139.1: Kyle Jamieson to Virat Kohli, OUT! TAKEN! Oh, dear! It is absolute pin-drop silence here in Vadodara, and heartbreak for Virat Kohli as he falls just short of his century. Kyle Jamieson lands this on hard length and around off, Virat Kohli charges down the track and tries to loft it down the ground, but ends up hitting it too close to mid off. It flies flat, and Michael Bracewell does well to move to his right to take a sharp catch with the ball almost behind him. Kohli is very disappointed with himself, not only because of not getting to a hundred, but also for not staying there till the end and finishing the job. Virat walks back for a magnificent 93 off 91, and to a big applause from the crowd.

This is a well-directed bumper on middle. Virat Kohli tries to pull it away, but it looks like he misses it by some distance, before Mitchell Hay grabs it behind the stumps.
