Shreyas Iyer and Akshar Patel formed partnership

After the fall of the first 3 wickets, India needed partnership from its batsmen. Then Shreyas Iyer and Akshar Patel together took the Indian innings forward and made a half-century partnership. But then captain Iyer became the victim of Blair Tickner after playing an innings of 22 runs in 26 balls. Then, Axar Patel lost his wicket after scoring 46 runs in 55 balls. Akshar hit 5 fours and 1 six in his innings. Naman Dhir returned after playing an innings of 22 runs in 31 balls and giving victory to his team.

Arshdeep scored 14 runs with the help of 2 sixes in just 4 balls. So, Siraj returned after playing an unbeaten inning of 14 runs on 20 balls. He hit 1 four and 1 six in his innings. In this way, the Indian team has been all out in 42.1 overs and New Zealand now has a target of 210 runs to win.
