India are all out for a paltry 133 chasing 201 in 47 overs

A 67n run loss is the result and India are still in search of a win in this tournament

PIndia are languishing at the bottom of the points table with 0 points. Sri Lanka have 6 points from 3 matches. New Zealand have four points from 3 matches

It's a rather depressing day for Indian cricket, unable to chgase 201 runs

Virender Sehwag, yet another experiment as an opener made 33, the top score of the indian innings

The Kiwi's of course have been in absolutely cracking touch today

Apart from putting on as many runs as possible in less than perfect batting conditions, they defended their low score well

In the early overs when India seemed to hvae a glimmer of hope the New Zelanaders fielded in amanner that would have made any captain proud - like cornered Tigers, to quote Imran Khan from 1992

The Indians found the going tough as one by one their batsmen failed to get going

To top it all, the run outs kept coming as well and there seemed to be nothing the New Zealanders could do wrong

At the end of the day Harris had figures of 7-3-9-2, Vettori 10-0-33-1, Nash 7.4-0-25-1 and so on... everyone was tidy

The end result - a comprehensive New Zealand win!

That's all we have for you from the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo
