049.649.6: Mohammed Siraj to Michael Bracewell, FOUR BYES! Oh, that's gone through. 10 runs off the last 2 balls after the first four dots. Siraj looks to bowl at the stumps as Bracewell moves across again. He swings but does not connect. The keeper, KL Rahul, expecting the wide yorker, is standing a bit to his left than his usual standing position. Rahul dives to his right and gets a hand to it, but it is not enough, and the ball races away. New Zealand finish with 337 on the board.

049.149.1: Mohammed Siraj to Michael Bracewell, Siraj starts with a slower bouncer, over off. Bracewell hops and reaches out to go big on the off side. Ends up mistiming it but the ball lands right between extra cover and mid off. He does not take the single.
048.648.6: Harshit Rana to Kristian Clarke, OUT! CASTLED! You miss, I hit, says Harshit Rana. Gets the yorker in, does Harshit. Nice and straight at the stumps. Clarke shuffles across to play the scoop but misses it completely and the stumps are shattered. A handy knock nonetheless from Clarke. 11 (5) for Kristian.

648.548.5: Harshit Rana to Kristian Clarke, SIX! Slower ball picked and dispatched! Off-cutter from Rana, on a length, outside off. Clarke walks way across to the off side and swings across the line to clobber it over deep mid-wicket for a six. 15 runs off the over with a ball to go.

047.347.3: Arshdeep Singh to Michael Bracewell, A confident shout for LBW but turned down. Arshdeep Singh is pretty convinced and Shubman Gill takes the review. A searing yorker from Arshdeep, tailing in towards the off stump. Bracewell swings at it but it appears that the ball has gone under the bat before hitting him on the left boot. Oh, the UltraEdge shows a scratch when the ball is near the toe end. The on-field call is upheld.
147.247.2: Arshdeep Singh to Kristian Clarke, Slow bumper, over middle. Clarke pulls it towards deep square leg for a single.
047.147.1: Arshdeep Singh to Zakary Foulkes, OUT! CAUGHT! A cheeky attempt, but it does not quite come off for Zakary Foulkes. Not the best of balls by Arshdeep as he gets the yorker wrong. It comes out as a low full toss, on middle. Foulkes backs away a bit and looks to go over the man at short third with a reverse scoop. He fails to get the elevation on the shot as the ball goes flat and straight to Kuldeep Yadav off the face of the blade. Kuldeep makes no mistake and New Zealand are 7 down for 303.

045.245.2: Kuldeep Yadav to Mitchell Hay, OUT! Given LBW! This looks straight but after a chat with his partner, Mitchell Hay has taken the review. This was the googly from Kuldeep, on a nagging length, on middle. Hay reached out in front and went hard on the reverse sweep. The ball snuck under the bat to catch Hay on the knee roll on the front pad. No bat involved on UltraEdge. It is three reds on Ball Tracking with the ball crashing into the off pole. Mitchell takes a review with him. 3 wickets in 14 balls for India. New Zealand are losing wickets at a crucial juncture in the game.

It flies towards deep square leg, where Kuldeep Yadav runs forward and takes a good catching diving forward with the sun right in his eyes. Mitchell departs after a fantastic 137 off 131, and gets a cheeky push from Kohli while walking back.

Daryl Mitchell is too far to the off side and just throws his bat at it. It goes off the toe-end and bounces behind. KL Rahul has also moved early to his right and has no chance of stopping that as it races to the fine leg fence for a boundary. The umpire signals it as byes at first, but then changes it to runs.

He goes full and outside off, takes pace off and keeps it out of the reach of the batter. Glenn Phillips still throws his bat at it, but only manages to get a thin outside edge behind, where KL Rahul moves to his right and takes a sharp catch with his extended right glove as it gets stuck in it. Phillips walks back after a superb knock of 106 off 88, and New Zealand are 277/4 now.
442.642.6: Mohammed Siraj to Daryl Mitchell, DROPPED AND FOUR! India need to take even the half-chances now. This is short and outside off. Daryl Mitchell slaps it aerially wide of extra cover.

042.342.3: Mohammed Siraj to Glenn Phillips, Edged and gone? The finger goes up, but Glenn Phillips reviews it right away. KL Rahul, the keeper, also does not look that confident here. Mohammed Siraj serves this full and well outside off. Phillips throws his bat at it and it looks like he hits the ground as the ball goes over his bat. The replay confirms the same and the on-field call is overturned.

Also, 250 up for New Zealand now.
040.240.2: Kuldeep Yadav to Daryl Mitchell, Flatter, full but down the leg side, Daryl Mitchell looks to paddle it away but misses.

Kristian Clarke lands this on a hard length and on off. Arshdeep Singh pushes it towards cover and sets off for the run. Phillips is quick to move to his right, picks it up, and without much of a backlift scores a direct hit at the batter's end in one motion. Kuldeep Yadav thinks he is in, and he turns back for the second run as the ball deflects away in the deep. However, it has been sent upstairs, and the replay shows that Kuldeep did not slide his bat inside in time. Phillips is ecstatic seeing this on the big screen, and every Kiwi player surrounds him to celebrate this historic win. NEW ZEALAND WIN BY 41 RUNS AND SEAL THE SERIES 2-1!

045.445.4: Kristian Clarke to Virat Kohli, OUT! IN THE AIR....GONE! That is probably the game for New Zealand, and it is pin-drop silence here in Indore. Kristian Clarke goes fuller and on off. Virat Kohli tries to launch it down the ground, but his bat turns in his hands upon contact. He ends up mistiming it high in the air towards long off, where fittingly, it is Daryl Mitchell who settles under it and pouches it safely. It is disappointing for Kohli and India, as he walks back for a magnificent 124 off 108, but it won't be in a winning cause here. The crowd applauds him, but it is the Kiwis who are celebrating.

He signals a boundary. Fair play to him.
444.644.6: Glenn Phillips to Kuldeep Yadav, FOUR! Gets it away somehow! This is fractionally short, on off, Kuldeep tries the reverse scoop and gets some bat on it. The ball goes past the keeper's left arm and it races away.
