Jacob Duffy to Abhishek Sharma, 2 runs - tough chance and Santner does not hang on. Very similar to the one he put down in the previous game.

Jacob Duffy to Sanju Samson, out Caught by Tim Seifert!! Early wicket for New Zealand. That has happened rarely in this series. The way Tim Seifert throws the ball away tells you how badly they were looking for this wicket. Duffy shortens his length after being carved away over cover. Samson backs away and tries to pull it into the leg-side - the ball climbs on him and the top-edge goes straight up. Seifert calls for it, takes a few steps forward and hangs on safely. Sanju Samson c Tim Seifert b Jacob Duffy 4(2) [4s-1]

Nitish keeps it full and outside off - Phillips could not middle the lofted drive and hits it high towards deep extra cover. Abhishek settles under and makes no mistake. Glenn Phillips c Abhishek Sharma b Nitish Reddy 107(49) [4s-6 6s-10]

Nitish Reddy to Glenn Phillips, SIX - that's now five sixes in a row for Phillips against Nitish. He's really taken him to the cleaners today.

Arshdeep Singh to Mitchell Santner, out Caught by Nitish Reddy!! 150th T20I wicket for Arshdeep. This is a decent penultimate over from him. And he's the only bowler to go under 10rpo. This is superb spell from the left-arm pacer. He bowls to his plan - full and outside off - makes Santner reach for the lofted drive and the New Zealand slices it straight to sweeper cover. Nitish takes a well-judged catch on the rope. Mitchell Santner c Nitish Reddy b Arshdeep Singh 5(6)

Arshdeep Singh to Glenn Phillips, SIX - hundred for Phillips. What a series he's having! Had his arms up as soon as he struck it. Santner embraces him. He takes his helmet off and raises his hands to soak in the applause. The DJ also plays John Cena's entrance song - that is GP's entry song as well. It is being played every time he walks out to the middle, and the DJ rightly plays it as he reaches the milestone. Mitchell was the first one up in the New Zealand team to stand and applaud. Arshdeep misses the yorker, and it was in the slot and Phillips has been really good down the ground, lofts through the line and sends it sailing over long-off

Arshdeep Singh to Glenn Phillips, 2 runs - low full toss outside off, Phillips reaches and slices the drive square of the wicket. The bottom hand comes off the bat handle and the duo scamper back for the second

Prince goes full and straight - Bracewell shuffles across and bends down to play the lap, misses as the ball dips under the bat and strikes him on the pad right in front of the stumps. Ball-tracking showed it to have pitched in-line and smashing into middle-leg. Can India pull things back now? Michael Bracewell lbw b Prince Yadav 65(25) [4s-4 6s-6]

Prince Yadav to Glenn Phillips, 1 run - low full toss around off, Phillips drags the drive off the inner half to long-on

Mayank Yadav to Michael Bracewell, no run - finally Mayank nails a yorker outside off, Bracewell brings his bat down and fails to jam it out. Another massive over - 20 runs, and it ruins Mayank's figures. He finishes with 4-0-48-3

Mayank Yadav to Michael Bracewell, SIX - another six. That's 7 sixes from the last 9 balls. Short and slow, but it is the line around leg which is allowing Bracewell to put it away, he swivels around and helps it towards fine leg. He generated enough power and timing to take it all the way

Mayank Yadav to Michael Bracewell, 2 runs - short and pace off, Bracewell is a bit early into the pull and miscues it high. The ball lands safely near backward square and the pair come back for the second

Mayank Yadav to Michael Bracewell, SIX - it is raining sixes at Eden Park. Bracewell knows what Mayank is trying to do and is outsmarting him at the moment. This is fuller around leg, Bracewell moves across and bends down to scoop it over the keeper. Once again cleverly uses the pace on offer and picks a maximum

Mayank Yadav to Michael Bracewell, no run - back of a length and at the body, Bracewell is cramped for and does not get the tuck away, struck on the thigh pad

Mayank Yadav to Michael Bracewell, SIX - five sixes in a row for New Zealand. Fifty for Bracewell. This is a fine knock. The home side needed someone to come in and keep going with Phillips, and Bracewell has managed to do that. He shuffles inside the line, waits for the back of a length delivery and laps it fine. The pace of Mayank takes care of the rest as Bracewell raises his bat and acknowledges the applause..

Nitish Reddy to Glenn Phillips, SIX - 32 from the over! This is a hammering for Nitish. He has failed to execute like his previous two overs. He went full or for the yorker and didn't quite nail 'em. This is a full toss and Phillips does not miss out, smashes it down the ground and clears long-off with ease. He moves into the 90s

Nitish Reddy to Glenn Phillips, SIX - hat-trick of sixes. Nitish goes round the wicket and angles the full delivery across, but that meant there was room on offer and Phillips throws his bat on the big shot, the outside edge flies towards third man and goes the distance. 200 up for New Zealand..

Nitish Reddy to Glenn Phillips, SIX - this is not the length on this venue. Nitish goes full and it is an easy shot down the ground. It is only a 63 meter hit. Full pitcher around off, Phillips does not try to overhit the lofted drive, just lofts through the line and sends it sailing 30 rows back in the stands

Nitish Reddy to Glenn Phillips, SIX - whoa! That's a flat six. We will get a few of these today. The ground is small and there's hardly any air time but the ball still clears the rope easily. Full and outside off, Phillips has ample width to free his hands and he pumps it over extra cover

Nitish Reddy to Glenn Phillips, 2 runs - wide yorker outside off, Phillips squeezes it to deep backward point and races back for the second

Nitish Reddy to Glenn Phillips, no ball - FOUR, that must have slipped out. High full toss, well above the waist and Phillips swings it away into the leg-side. He hit it against the wind and hence the ball landed just inside the rope. Free-hit coming up..
