Ravindra Jadeja celebrates with Virat Kohli.

NZ 159-5 (45 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Puff of dust on the pitch as Ashwin extracts lot of turn and bounce but it is down the leg side as Young glances it fine for two runs and then takes one.

Mitchell misses the whip and struck on the pads before he clips the fifth ball for a single to square leg.

Young is beaten last ball as he rocks back to cut Ashwin but misses.

Jadeja ends India's frustration with the wicket of Young. The ball spin sharply as Young looking to defend gets the edge and is caught by Rohit at slip.

Young walks back after a fine knock of 71, having put on 87 runs for the fourth wicket with Mitchell (39).

Jadeja strikes again in the over. Once again he bowls a ripper to get the wicket of Tom Blundell, who is also beaten on the outside edge to be bowled for a three-ball duck.

Blundell made the mistake of going back to block but the ball spun quite sharply across the face of the bat, to crash into the stumps.

India will sense their chances of bundling out the Kiwis under 200.
