17.3 to Ishan Kishan, Taken at deep square leg. Kishan's show is over. NZ's players congratulate him as he walks back to whistles and applause. Slower bouncer, 123ks, pulled from just outside off. Hit closer to the sticker of the bat. 233/4 | ||||||||||

2.5 to SV Samson, Samson's short stay is done and the crowd has been silenced! Samson's back foot going back early costs him again. He stayed slightly leg side of the ball, stood still and looked to drive the 146ks length ball over cover, got a thick outside edge and was caught at deep third.. 31/1 4.6 to Abhishek Sharma, Pace makes the difference. 145ks and it smashes into middle and leg. Seam up length ball landed on leg and skidded through. Abhishek made room, like he often does, and looked to slap it over cover. Missed it completely. Ferguson, troubling all three batters, has two. 48/2 | ||||||||||

0.6 to TL Seifert, Soft dismissal. Fullish ball at 135ks on leg was chipped softly to midwicket. Innocuous ball, Seifert probably thinking of playing that along the ground, played it too early. 17/1 11.1 to R Ravindra, Wickets falling in a clump. Knuckle ball into the pitch outside off. Ravindra dragging it across with a top-edged pull, taken at deep-backward square. 137/4 11.3 to MJ Santner, Right up, Arshdeep celebrates before SKY takes a dolly at cover. Was a scramble-seam hard-length ball angling in towards off. Santner looked to pull it away, got it off the top of the bat and right up. 137/5 15.3 to KA Jamieson, This pull takes the under-edge and hits middle and off. Pace off again, this is short and over the stumps, Jamieson looked to hit it along the ground. 179/7 15.5 to DJ Mitchell, Arshdeep, after going for 40 in the first two, has a five-for! He is thrilled. This was a wide yorker, Mitchell wanted to reverse sweep it. Somehow, got the ball off the edge back onto the stumps.. 180/8 | ||||||||||

14.1 to BJ Jacobs, Googly knocks over middle and off. Length ball lands just outside off and spins in sharply. Jacobs is clueless, tries to flick it leg side and misses. 166/6 | ||||||||||

8.6 to FH Allen, Axar gets the key wicket and breaks the 100-run stand! Back of length at the stumps, Allen was deep in the crease, pulled and swivelled and found long-on. 117/2 10.2 to GD Phillips, Axar gets another, Phillips skies one to long-on. 93ks length ball on middle stump, Phillips stood leg side of the ball and looking to drive it straight and far. Got it too high.. 131/3 16.6 to LH Ferguson, Dances down and misses the straight ball. Length ball laded on off and went through the drive to rattle middle and leg. 191/9 | ||||||||||

19.4 to IS Sodhi, Taken by Arshdeep at point, he pockets the ball. That's the series done, India win 4-1. Was a short ball outside off, Sodhi looked to slap it, skied it right up to point. 225/10 | ||||||||||
