Kyle Jamieson to Rahul, 1 run - short of length delivery outside off stump, KL steers it to third man
Kyle Jamieson to Rahul, no run - good length delivery on the off stump, Rahul delivery
Kyle Jamieson to Auqib Nabi, 1 run - short of length delivery on the leg stump, Nabi helps it away to deep backward square leg
Kyle Jamieson to Anshul Kamboj, out Caught by Jacob Duffy!! Ohh thick outside edge - taken at third man. Anshul Kamboj went for a blind swing across the line, wanted a big hit to the mid-wicket fence. But the ball jumped a tad extra and found the edge. Duffy settled under it at third man, stretched forward last minute to pouch it with both hands. India still 24 runs away and this is getting quite serious now for New Zealand. Can they get KL and spice this up further? Gambhir wears a kind of shocked look on his face. Could Anshul Kamboj have been patient and just given support to KL? Anshul Kamboj c Jacob Duffy b Kyle Jamieson 1(3)
Kyle Jamieson to Anshul Kamboj, no run - out-seaming ball with good bounce on a back of a length outside off. Anshul Kamboj pokes but pulls his bat in just in time to let it go
Kyle Jamieson to Rahul, 1 run - back of a length, Rahul turns it to square leg off the splice of the bat

Jacob Duffy to Anshul Kamboj, 2 runs - 137kph, shortish ball down leg, Anshul Kamboj manages to tickle it fine to fine leg off the inside edge. The ball was heading to the rope
Jacob Duffy to Naman Dhir, out Caught by Tim Seifert!! This is hit well but he's picked out the man at deep backward square. Third ump checks if Seifert touched the rope. After multiple angles he says "No evidence of touching the rope." So it will be out. Was mighty close. Interestingly - if you have a close look, the boundary cushioning where Seifert was stationed was slightly behind than the rest of the cushions in that region. The boundary cushion alignment wasn't right in multiple places. KL Rahul is seen having a word with both umps, wonder if he's referring to the same. But India won't make a scene out of it. Naman Dhir actually pulled this short ball pretty well, but he holed out at deep backward square leg. Full credit to Seifert though for being exactly aware of the rope. He placed his heel just an inch away from it and avoided any contact. Naman Dhir c Tim Seifert b Jacob Duffy 12(16) [4s-2]
Jacob Duffy to Naman Dhir, no run - well handled! Again the bouncer nips back in to the RHB but the difference between this ball and the Shreyas dismissal was, the latter had taken a back and across step in his trigger, while Naman Dhir did not. So Naman was easily able to sway away from the line and let it go
Jacob Duffy to Naman Dhir, FOUR - he's done well to straight-pull this, baseball type. Short and angling in, Dhir stands tall to slam it over the non-striker's head. With mid-on inside the circle, no one's going to stop that

Kyle Jamieson to Naman Dhir, FOUR - in the air, safe and four! 134kph, shortish ball with width on offer. Naman Dhir isn't afraid to play it uppishly. Walks across and nicely flays it over cover. He not only hit it in the air but also found the gap between backward point and cover-point

Jacob Duffy to Naman Dhir, no run - defended back to the bowler
Jacob Duffy to Rahul, 1 run - short of a good length, Rahul hops and pokes it to backward point and the batters set off for a sharp single. Glenn Phillips is super quick to get to the ball, running to his left from backward point. Releases the ball quickly but fails to hit the target. Dhir meanwhile puts in a dive. A direct-hit would have been curtains for Naman Dhir
Kyle Jamieson to Shreyas Iyer, out Caught by Tom Latham!! That's an ugly dismissal! The short ball does the trick once again. Jamieson returns and strikes. A snorter from Jamieson. Dug in short and angled in at 136kph - Shreyas Iyer has nowhere to hide. Can neither duck, nor sway. Fails to drop his wrists as well. The ball balloons up off the top-edge and it's an easy grab for the keeper. Shreyas is distraught as he walks off. Shreyas Iyer c Tom Latham b Kyle Jamieson 30(46) [4s-4 6s-1]
Kyle Jamieson to Shreyas Iyer, no run - yes-no situation! Back of a length ball that comes in with the angle. Shreyas Iyer arches back to pat it towards cover. Glenn Phillips runs quickly to his right to get to the ball. Righhtly sent back by KL Rahul
Kyle Jamieson to Shreyas Iyer, no run - Shreyas Iyer drives with an opened bat-face and Glenn Phillips makes a diving stop to his left at backward point
Kyle Jamieson to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR - Jamieson goes full, it's in the driving zone and Shreyas Iyer nicely plays an aerial drive. Over and straight of mid-off. Relies on timing rather than power
Kyle Jamieson to Shreyas Iyer, no run - short of length delivery outside off stump, Shreyas tries dab and gets an under edge that rolls to slip
Kyle Jamieson to Shreyas Iyer, no run - beaten on the cut! This short of length delivery doesn't rise as much as Shreyas expected and skids off the pitch to beat the bat
Matthew Fisher to Rahul, FOUR - Matthew Fisher is adamant on bowling on the leg-side. KL says thank you very much and plays a lovely swivel-pull, beautifully rolled his wrists and the hips through the shot and just placed this short of length delivery behind square for four more
Matthew Fisher to Shreyas Iyer, 1 run - tickled fine. Again down the leg-side, wonder what he's trying to do. This time it's easier for Duffy and he cuts it off
Matthew Fisher to Shreyas Iyer, wide - full and down the leg-side again
Matthew Fisher to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR - poor line down the leg-side, clipped off the back foot and fine leg tries to cut it off. Duffy could not put in the dive.

Matthew Fisher to Shreyas Iyer, FOUR - 142kph, with a slip in place, Fisher bowls a skiddy in-slanter straying onto the pads. Shreyas Iyer awkwardly glances and the ball races away to the fine leg fence off the inside edge. Not a convincing stroke but India will take it
Nathan Smith to Rahul, no run - good comeback from Nathan Smith. Short of length, gets it to nip away and squares up the batter. Oh wait, New Zealand have reviewed for caught behind. The appeal wasn't confident but they've sent it upstairs. Rahul turns into an 'S' as he looks to defend this out-seamer. Beats the outside edge, brushes the thigh and goes into the keeper's mitts. New Zealand burn a review
Nathan Smith to Rahul, SIX - even better on this occasion! 138kph, short again, no real bounce to trouble the batsman. Rahul pivots across and has no intention to play it along the ground. Slams the pull high and over deep backward square leg

GP ran in from backward point, threw himself forward, but the ball was always dropping in front of him. The physio comes out to have a look at the Indian all-rounder, but he's fine on all counts
Kyle Jamieson to Rohit Sharma, out Caught by Nicholls!! Jamieson gets his man now and he's chuffed to bits. A loose shot from Rohit though - pitched up just outside off and Rohit thought it was in the zone for the lofted drive - but he's gone too hard at it - lost his shape and played slightly across the line, the thick outside edge is found and it flies to second slip - Nicholls goes reverse-cupped and holds on with ease.

GB roars, first pumps and then does the same celebration as the last time, closing his left ear and then pointing to the sky with the other hand. Both dismissals are quite similar, just that Latham is left-handed and GP is right-handed. Short delivery, again at 141kph, just like Latham, GP also tried to fetch the pull. This ball definitely jumped more than the Latham dismissal. GP was in no control over the shot. Top edge was swirling in this Wellington wind, Kamboj circled and managed to make it look simple.

Good short delivery at 141kph, the key was it was angled slightly across so Latham kind of had to fetch the pull from outside off stump. Top edge resulted and he holed out.
