It's all over, Radha doesn't get the fifty, and Devine completes a handsome win for New Zealand. Slower ball, full and wide outside off, Radha looks to flay it over extra cover, but gets a big top edge that nestles nicely into the hands of the fielder at backward point.

Right then, there's a huge decider coming up on Tuesday at this very stadium. Can India pick themselves up and turn in a better performance? We'll be there with you then to find out. Until then, this is Aaditya Narayan signing off, on behalf of my co-commentator Himanshu Agrawal and our scorers M Venkat Raghav and Binoy George.
Lea Tahuhu speaks: I think it started to skid on towards the end, and there was a bit of variable bounce, it was about trying to stick onto the wicket. We probably left some runs out there, the pitches we've played on have been amazing, we're probably looking at 280-plus in game three. Felt really good [rhythm], missed the first game after a big World Cup. On these pitches, need to bring those subtle variations into play.
8:45pm: New Zealand win by 76 runs and level the series. It's been a convincing performance from the White Ferns. Bates and Devine got to fifties with the bat. Tahuhu rocked India in the powerplay with the wickets of Mandhana and Yastika. Devine followed that up with the big wickets of Jemimah and Harmanpreet. That 70-run stand between Radha and Thakor added some respectability to the India score, but they were really outdone on the day by a terrfic, complete New Zealand performance.

India need 77 off 3 overs. So that isn't a point of contention anymore. Can Radha get the two runs she needs to get her half-century to follow up the four-fer and her brilliant fielding?

Jess Kerr to Thakor, OUT
sliced to extra cover! Finally, the frustration ends for New Zealand. Kerr bowled full and just outside off, as Thakor looked to loft it by opening the face of the bat. But there was no timing and placement there, and that went to the extra-cover fielder's right
