Halt.

13.2

That will hurt! Prince delivers another full ball, at the sticks. Phillips swings through the line and picks the bones out of it, smacking it back towards the bowler. Prince gets both hands to his right on his follow-through. The ball hits him on the right thumb and goes away, allowing a single. That will sting on a chilly night.

13.1

Slips in the yorker, on off. Seifert digs it out to mid off and crosses over.

Prince Yadav has been brought back.

12.6

FOUR! Edged but safe! 18 runs off this over. New Zealand are in the driver's seat now. Full and wide outside off at 109 kph. Phillips spots the width and throws everything at it, getting a thick outside edge that flies over short third and races away to the boundary.

12.5

Spins in sharply on middle, Seifert drags it to the left of deep mid-wicket for a single.

12.4

FOUR! This is really sloppy from India now. Kishan should have stopped that. A schoolboy error. Pitched up and wide outside off, and Seifert stands tall to thump it through the off side, just right of deep point. Kishan gives chase, but the ball curls away from him late. He overruns and slips, and can only watch it squirt past him to the rope. That also brings up the 50-run partnership between Seifert and Phillips.

12.3

A full delivery outside off, and it's the googly. Phillips stays leg side of the ball, pushes forward, and looks to drive through the off side, but gets an inside edge that runs away to backward square for a single.

12.2

FOUR! Action replay of the previous ball. Glenn Phillips goes past Mark Chapman to score the most runs for New Zealand in a T20I series, informs Simon Doull on air. Short again on the stumps, Phillips uses the depth of the crease and nails the pull shot, this time in front of square for a boundary at deep mid-wicket.

12.1

FOUR! Boundaries are leaking here and the Indians are out of answers at the moment. Dropped short by Varun, on leg, Phillips pick the length early and pulls it off the back foot to the left of deep square leg for a boundary.
