New Zealand finish with a late burst there thanks to Luke Ronchi, but India will be more than happy having restricted them to a meagre total of 126. With the power in their batting line-up India will be strong favourites to chase this down.
New Zealand have picked all their spinners and the surface did turn quite a lot, so they will hope that can come in to play as they defend this small total. India are the masters of batting against spin though so they won't be too worried about that.
Nehra to Ronchi, two runs, blasts a full toss down to wide long off and they hurry back to complete the second run.

What a game of cricket we have witnessed tonight, though no one could have predicted how it panned out. New Zealand set a modest total of 126 but bamboozled India's batting line up, 9 of the 10 wickets fell to the New Zealand spin bowlers!
Mitch Santner picked up the incredible figures of 4/11 from 4 overs, and also chipping in with 18 from 17 balls, he is judged Player of the Match.
