Rachin Ravindra celebrates his half-century.

NZ 335-7 (80 ovs) vs India 46 | Scorecard

Ravindra dominating the spinners. He slog sweeps Jadeja over midwicket for a six to race into the 90s.

The next ball is slapped through the covers as Jadeja drops shot, beating the fielder at covers for a four.

He drives the last ball, a full delivery, down to long-off for a single to take his score to 99.

In the next over, Ravindra sweeps Ashwin for a four to bring up his century in style from 124 balls.

Ravindra continues his fine association with Bengaluru, the city where his parents were born.

He had hit a century against Pakistan in a crucial ODI World Cup match at Bengaluru last year.

Southee guides Ashwin behind point for a four before he uses his feet to launch the spinner over long-on for a six.

Ashwin strays down the leg side as Southee sweeps it fine for another four and then takes a single to make it 20 runs from the over.

The duo also raise the 100-run stand for the eighth wicket from 90 balls.

New Zealand have smashed 48 from the last three overs to take complete control with Ashwin conceding 35 from two overs.
