Jamieson to bowl the 48th over. Rahul inside edges the first ball for a single before Hardik is beaten as he pulls out of the shot last second.

The next ball is short and this time Hardik gets a big top edge trying to pull as the bowler takes an easy catch on his follow through.

Hardik out for run-a-ball 18 as India lose their sixth wicket with New Zealand not giving up without a fight.

India still have a capable batter in Ravindra Jadeja at No 8. He clips the first ball he faces off his pads for two runs to get off the mark.

The short ball follows as Jadeja pulls it to fine leg for two more runs.

He taps the next into the off-side and wants a quick single but is sent back. The fielder at point rushes in and breaks the stumps as New Zealand appeal for run out but he has made his ground/.
