00:12Hello and welcome to the highlights of the 4th match of the 5-match T29 series between
00:16New Zealand and India.
00:20Captain Shreyasaya won the toss and once again decided to bowl first.
00:26Let's have a look at playing 11 for both sides.
00:28New Zealand made one change with Nathan Smith coming in for Kyle Jameson.
00:33Tim Seifert and Finn Allen opened the innings for New Zealand
00:36with Dallon Mitchell and Ken Phillips adding strength to the batting order.
00:39India make two changes.
00:41Ishaan Kishan and Mayank Yadav come in for Baibaf Suryavanshi and Govaneshwar Kumar.
00:46Sanju Samson, Abhishek Sharma, Shreyasaya, Radhila Karma formed a strong batting lineup.
00:51This pitch will have something on offer for the faster bowlers.
00:54It's got a nice cover of grass. There will be bounce.
00:59So it's important that the bowlers don't just think of defending but look to make inroads
01:05with the new ball.
01:06One thing New Zealand do need is runs from these two.
01:10Finn Allen but in particular Tim Seifert who's been relatively quiet.
01:14So it'll be interesting to see his approach.
01:16I'm pretty sure it's going to be all guns blazing and it has to be.
01:22Mayank Yadav, right arm quick.
01:26A regulation field otherwise with a slip in place in the form of Abhishek Sharma.
01:32Game on indeed.
01:41New Zealand innings underway.
01:47Plies away, down a fair chance.
01:49Oh, he just had to pop it back over the boundary.
01:54That's how short they are.
01:56Terrific piece of work.
01:59I think it got to him so quickly that he had no choice but to put it back into play.
02:05And not try anything else.
02:10No, it wouldn't have mattered because we're just hearing that it's going to be a free hit.
02:16Free hit for Seifert.
02:18Full toss.
02:20Finds the gap.
02:21Outfield will be a little bit slow I'm predicting.
02:23Just with the rain it's been around and that is the biggest area on the ground.
02:27That extra cover region.
02:29So it'll just be a couple.
02:33There's that uppercut.
02:34I think it's another opportunity though.
02:36And taken again.
02:37This time it's not a no ball and this time it's safe.
02:40Another sky from Seifert.
02:42The Yadovs combine.
02:44Prince takes the catch.
02:46Mayak the wicket.
02:47Just didn't get the pace on it.
02:49Went high up in the air.
02:50Didn't get the distance.
02:52Pretty straightforward chance here.
02:54And taken gleefully by Prince Yado.
02:57Seifert has to depart for three.
02:59It's five for one.
03:02For Daryl Mitchell the fine leg has come a lot finer.
03:09The straight and all the way.
03:12That's how short it is.
03:14Didn't go far above the head of Madon.
03:17But sailed for six.
03:19That's the shortest side of the ground.
03:24Goes again.
03:25Back to back for Mitchell.
03:27That one a little sweeter.
03:32I don't think he'll catch that either.
03:33That's beautiful timing from Daryl Mitchell.
03:36Oh some quality shots in this over.
03:39Now goes Yorker.
03:40Brilliantly bowled.
03:41Trapped in front.
03:42Gone.
03:44Superb.
03:45From Mayank.
03:46He's fought back beautifully here.
03:49Reviewed it straight away.
03:51Did he get a little tickle on it?
03:52A little inside edge.
03:53Kim Cotton.
03:53Over to you.
03:55Ball tracking coming up.
03:58Impact in line.
04:00Wickets is hitting.
04:03Go back to Phil.
04:05Stay with your out decisions.
04:06Stand by.
04:08Good decision originally from Phil Gillespie.
04:11A really poor review from Daryl Mitchell.
04:13Without any consultation whatsoever.
04:15From the other end.
04:16He's gone for 24.
04:17It is 34 for two.
04:21Short arm pull from Phillips.
04:24Brings about his first boundary.
04:27Lovely bit of timing.
04:29Reminder of where the leading run scorers are so far.
04:32Phillips and Abhishek standing out at the top.
04:34With Mitchell Bevan Jacobs and Finn Allen.
04:36So you can tell from that.
04:37That India have had great contributions throughout.
04:43Swivels that away for four more.
04:49Swings that away.
04:51Leg side.
04:54Does Phillips just got it.
04:56The line slightly wrong Ashdeep.
04:59Phillips was quick on it.
05:02And it's gone a long way too.
05:07Up and over the outside.
05:09Powerfully struck.
05:11All the way for six.
05:15That's gone fine.
05:16That is a good finish to the power play for New Zealand.
05:20Six overs gone.
05:2167 for two.
05:22Two.
05:25That's a poor delivery.
05:27Picked up and put away.
05:28The boundaries.
05:29They continue to fly.
05:33Short pulled away.
05:35All the way for six.
05:38A change of angle here from Akshar.
05:40And that is straight off the middle of the blade.
05:43Doesn't want to pitch it up does he either.
05:45Akshar Patel with the short straight boundaries.
05:49Goes again.
05:50Same result.
05:52Even further from Finn Allen.
05:57This could be a chance.
05:58Straight to deep point.
05:59And it is out.
06:02Gets his man once again.
06:04Akshar Patel.
06:05Deep cover back.
06:08Straight to him.
06:10Not what New Zealand needed.
06:11Phil Allen's on his way.
06:1231 off 17.
06:16That's up and over the next side.
06:17With the wind as well.
06:20All power once again from Glenn Phillips.
06:23What a series he's having.
06:25As New Zealand's 100 comes up.
06:30That's up in the air.
06:32Again the extra bounce doing the trick.
06:36Pace bounce.
06:38And Mike Yadav gets another one.
06:42India striking again.
06:47Brilliant.
06:48Brilliant bowling.
06:49Operating in a fuller league.
06:51This side of the input ball.
06:52Good pace.
06:54Good bounce.
06:55One twelve for four.
06:56Bevan Jacobs.
06:57Going for seven.
07:04That's in the gap.
07:05One bounce over the rope.
07:11Swings.
07:13And finds the gap.
07:18That's a good strike.
07:21Clears the fence.
07:23Twelve gone.
07:23One twenty nine for four.
07:26That's a good strike.
07:30Should get two.
07:37It's another half century here.
07:39He's having a tremendous run in this series.
07:44Highest run getter.
07:4750 at 50 for Glenn Phillips.
07:49In this format of the game.
07:51And the third in this series.
07:53So he's Mr. Consistent for New Zealand.
07:58What a strike that is.
08:00Lovely back swing.
08:02Didn't try to muscle it.
08:03It was a beautiful timing.
08:05This.
08:05Well Prince Yardov has struggled.
08:07He just hasn't quite got the links right.
08:09He's either been too short.
08:10Which he was early on.
08:11Making the adjustment now.
08:12To Phillips.
08:13Fractionally full.
08:14But that's a beautiful shot.
08:18Oh here goes Bracewell this time.
08:20The result the same.
08:24He had to fetch that one.
08:25The line was good.
08:26It was wide.
08:27Looking to get Bracewell to hit.
08:28To the longer part of the boundary.
08:31Bracewell was good enough.
08:32To reach it.
08:35Through the cross.
08:36No over mid-arm.
08:42He finds the gap.
08:47That's right.
08:48It will be a boundary.
08:54And another one.
08:57Funtos getting the treatment.
09:01Oh that's clean.
09:03Into the side screen.
09:05Four.
09:06Four.
09:06Four.
09:06Six.
09:06For Bracewell.
09:08Well here we go.
09:09Here's this pocket.
09:11Bracewell.
09:13Nothing but boundaries on his mind.
09:14With this over.
09:17Bang.
09:18Over the offside this time.
09:20Another boundary.
09:21The end.
09:23Three.
09:24Three.
09:25There.
09:25That'll be close to a no.
09:26Ball.
09:27Into the breeze.
09:28And yet still has the power to run away to the boundary for four.
09:34that is a great shot all power all the way for six well that helps
09:41shots like that will push you well beyond a par score
09:48easy as you like mid off inside the circle
09:51wouldn't have mattered and that is 30 rows back
09:58that might fly all the way as well
10:02three sixes in a row for phillips well it's carnage as the 200 comes up
10:10that'll go straight and that'll go all the way what a huge over for new zealand

11:52it has been brilliant batting right from ball one at hickley park for glenn phillips
12:01and it's just got better and better as the series has gone on
12:06that might be taken there's the outdoor league
12:10the wide yorker once again

12:59and new zealand 252 for seven with four to go
13:08gets the outside edge
13:09no one back on the boundary
13:12so it will be four more to the total to finish this new zealand innings
13:17they have batted brilliantly throughout
13:19they will finish 259 for seven
13:21time will tell whether it is
13:23enough for new zealand to gain victory
13:26but it's much sterner test for this indian lineup
13:31need two to finish this new zealand of sanjou samson career strike rate
13:34over 81 matches of us that tick under 160
13:38but this man here when you look at these numbers in this record for abhishek sharma
13:43it is modern greatness strike rate over a career of 71 matches almost 197
13:54Jacob Duffy with the new ball
14:03a little bit of shape but some beautiful timing from Sanju Sampson straight away brilliant
14:12straight up keeper Seifert takes it and New Zealand strike early Duffy strikes early and
14:22Sampson for it out so just shortening the length it was an effort ball and straight up in the air
14:28no timing whatsoever so Sanju Sampson has to depart for four just what New Zealand needed
14:32an early breakthrough they've broken the opening partnership it's four for one
14:51oh is this a Q ender it is a Q ender straight off the toe end of the bat back
14:57to Jacob Duffy he's got
14:58two in the over and India rocked early and a quick turnaround here two wickets and one over
15:05getting it right at the bottom of the bat and India rocked early four for two
15:14that'll be four yes drifting onto their leg side
15:18Tresa helps himself to four to get off the mark
15:24lovely timing brilliant from Santner not his favoured side
15:28oh I tell you what a direct hit there it's bounced over the top of the stumps
15:32direct hit might have had
15:36Abhishek in some trouble
15:41it's been timed well straight back past Milne for four
15:47straight down the ground don't think he's timed it I don't think he has Santner
15:53Santner can't grab a hold of it he was running around in circles
15:59did all the hard work got there couldn't quite set the feet and then in the end just had to
16:03stretch out
16:04hits the end of the fingertips is that the crucial moment Abhishek Sharma the batsman
16:13chips that one just over mid-wicket should be a couple more no miss field
16:18poor from Nathan Smith let's one go by a little uh Roco banner there and this is uh the great
16:28Virat Kohli arriving at Auckland International Airport today there was a throng of people at the airport
16:42and out of the attack into the terraces on the eastern side of Eden Park just uses the wrist to
16:55manipulate the direction
16:59down the ground for four couple of bounces and into the boundary
17:07no timing no timing maybe that's why a little bit of extra bounce Abhishek goes
17:13couple of boundaries and Fisher strikes back and much to the relief of
17:17Mitchell Santner because he was the man underneath it again no timing whatsoever for uh Abhishek Sharma
17:23and there'll be relief there because it's the dangerous Abhishek Sharma who has to depart
17:33he's got that fine and into the fence
17:37well then gave himself room and right on the money is Adam milt fast straight
17:47they're knocking center peg but again a good response from miltress are gone for 22
17:58that's gone through beat santner into the fence
18:05it's up in the air with a carry
18:09a dive and down
18:13Devon Jacob's not quite able to grab that one
18:21nice time this much better and it clears the fence
18:28top edge another six
18:34he's up the order taking his chances now
18:41taken first ball and a wicket
18:44it's a good one
18:47hands are cold it's not that warm out there so it is a very good catch
18:53just ready 21 86 for five
19:01it's cut away
19:03and excellent fielding keeps the batsman down to two
19:09for mitch center two left-handers two aggressive left-handers the notion that left arm is can't
19:14bolder left-handers well mitch setting is one of the best theory behind the theory there you go
19:20left-hander to left-hander caught and bold you beauty center you've got your man
19:27and the theory is thrown out it can take a walk
19:33except patel's gone for seven 89 for six
19:40that's flicked nicely
19:45this is a good cricket shot smart batting
19:49yes easing it over mid off for six
19:58out to deep cover oh through the hands through the hands he had issues with his hands in christ
20:05church bevan jacobs just as you talked about drop catches steven bevan jacobs still struggling to lay a
20:12hand on them
20:16up to chance mitchell takes it fires it back in and smith does the rest
20:28back of the length again changing the pace
20:32not very good hands daryl mitchell running away
20:36if anything he just slightly maybe misjudged the throw nathan smith did exceptionally well to turn
20:41back and get there
20:44he's waiting in the middle namundir hoping that that just got a bit of grass underneath it but
20:51new zealand have been on tonight good innings but not enough for india namundir 28 for him it's 121 for
20:59seven
21:02might have another might have four
21:04ashtick comes and goes
21:06is that bevan jacobs
21:11well those are the ones you want just to get the confidence up a little
21:15missed one earlier was at the last over off santner this time
21:19straight in the bread basket a lot easier side of things for team india
21:24first baller for us deep 121 for eight
21:30that should run away nobody in that short fine leg region
21:38two without scoring this should be a chance should be taken mid wicket comes around puts it down
21:47a piece of bowling by mitch satner slowed that one up enticed
21:53the big shot from prince see matt fisher having a look to see if tim cypher was going to go
21:58for it
21:59i've taken his eyes off it slightly at the last minute
22:04up and over the offside may even have carried all the way
22:13back to back this time it will bounce
22:18nicely done that should carry all the way for six
22:23it's down and helps it on on its way use the pace nathan smith looking for the yorker
22:29it's helped over the keeper
22:33that's well done once again we'll fly all the way i would say very close either way
22:43another chance for the new zealanders cypher says this is mine
22:49and does brilliantly well you could see no other fielder was going close to the ball
22:55it was cypher to said it's mine and a big pair of wicket keeping gloves finishing it off
23:06so he goes for 35 india 158 for nine
23:14that's time nicely all the way down the ground for six so having some fun now enjoy that prince
23:21yadev back over the bowler's head high on the bat held the pose nicely
23:29he won't enjoy that it's nathan smith
23:34which you'll pull to finish and that will be the match new zealand
23:38have fought that well after the comprehensive loss in wellington they have dominated
23:46india in this fourth t20i at eden park they win this match by 87 runs
