IND vs NZ 2nd T20I Highlights - Raipur (23 January 2026)

Fuller and on middle, Dube drills it down the pitch. Duffy dives to his left on the follow-through but lets it through to long on for a single.

Back of a length and on middle, SKY steps across and nudges it towards deep mid-wicket for a couple of runs.

SIX! JUST OVER! A slower one, full and around middle, Suryakumar Yadav gets inside the line to play his favourite scoop but gets it from the toe-end of the bat. It flies towards deep backward square leg, where Mark Chapman leaps up and tries to push it back to save the six, but takes his eyes off the ball and it pops over the ropes for a six.

FIFTY FOR SKY! After 23 innings, the Indian skipper has got a half-century and this is a big positive for the hosts to see him back in form ahead of the World Cup. Good length and around off, Suryakumar Yadav guides it towards deep point for a single. He touches the pitch and points up to the sky to celebrate his milestone.

Short of a length and on off, Shivam Dube flat-bats it to long on for one.

FOUR! Finds the gap! Bangs this into the pitch and just outside off. SKY hops up and swats it aerially but well wide of the mid off fielder for a boundary.

Floated, full and on middle, Dube flicks it away wide of deep mid-wicket for a brace.

SIX! Going, going, gone! That is a six on any ground in the world. A googly, full and on middle, turns away. Dube gets down on one knee and launches it high and handsomely over the long on fence for a biggie. 100 METERS!

A shout for LBW, but turned down! However, Mitchell Santner takes the review but more in desperation. Flatter, full and on middle and leg. Dube stays back to flick it away but misses and gets hit on the pads. UltraEdge shows no bat involved and Ball Tracking shows that it has pitched outside leg. The Kiwis lose a review.

Quicker, short and on middle, Shivam Dube forces it onto the pitch and the bounce takes it over the bowler's head towards long on for one.

Floated, full and around off, SKY goes inside out and lofts it towards sweeper cover for one.

SIX! That is bread and butter for him! Flighted, full and on middle, turns in. Dube gets it right in his arc, clears his front leg away and smokes it over the deep mid-wicket fence for a biggie.

SIX! It's raining sixes here in Raipur! Fuller delivery, on middle, Suryakumar Yadav steps across and plays the scoop. He gets it from the outer half of the bat and goes miles in the air. The fielder at deep fine leg thinks he is in the game but only watches it sail over his head for a biggie.

A low full toss, on leg, SKY jams it out towards mid on for a quick single.

FOUR! Powered away! Short of a length and just outside off, Dube extends his arms and muscles it away wide of long off. Santner is not too far away, but the ball zips through the outfield and beats his dive to his right for a boundary.

Hard length and outside off, Dube punches it to sweeper cover for one.

A rare swing and a miss! A slower one, full and outside off. SKY backs away a bit too much and throws his bat at it but misses.

Back of a length and on middle, takes pace off, Suryakumar Yadav bends his back to sway away and almost falls over but manages to upper cut it over the short third fielder to collect two runs. The 50-run stand comes up between these two batters in just 23 balls.

On a length and on middle, Dube clips it away to deep mid-wicket for a single.

DROPPED! Would you believe it? It is the skipper who puts it down, which you don't see often. Hard length and on off, SKY tries to slam it down the ground but miscues it off the outer half of the bat, wide of cover. Santner runs to his right but gets a bit casual and spills it down. He gives a hug to his bowler, for whom the night cannot end quickly here.

SIX! Change of bat, change of result! Pitched up and just around off, Suryakumar Yadav gets right underneath it and clobbers it down the ground over the long off fence for half a dozen more.

In the air..SAFE again! Fuller and on off, SKY looks to flick it away but gets a leading edge over point. Conway runs backwards but loses sight of the ball and cannot reach it. Two taken.

FOUR! Deft touch now. Short of a length and just around off. Suryakumar Yadav plays it very late, opens the face of the bat and uses the pace to steer it to the third man fence for a boundary.

WIDE! Tries the slower bouncer but goes way down the leg side, SKY leaves it. Wided.

FOUR! SKY looks in a hurry to finish this game now. Fuller delivery, on middle, Suryakumar Yadav presents the full face of the bat and lofts it over the bowler's head towards the long on fence for four more runs. India need just 13 runs to win now.

Going across the left-hander, on a length, Dube swings through and powers the drive to the man at mid off.

SIX! That has gone back many a mile. Duffy bashes the hard length, outside off. Dube stands tall on his toes, swivels and smacks the pull over deep mid-wicket for a biggie. 200 comes up for India.

Wide! More effort behind this short ball but this is too high, over middle. Dube ducks under it as the ball sails over his head.

Nails the wide yorker, does Duffy. Dube gets his bat down and steers it with an open bat face behind square. Mark Chapman sprints and slides to his left in the deep to cut it off. Two runs taken. 4 more needed for India.

A good effort by Ish Sodhi! Sprayed on the pads by Duffy, on a length, Dube swings to get it past short fine leg. It goes on the bounce to Sodhi there, who dives to his right and gets a hand to it. He parries it away to his right. Just a single.

On a short of a length, outside off, Suryakumar punches it off the back foot to cover.

A searing yorker at 133.3 kph, at the toes. SKY gets the front pad out of the way and jams it out behind on the leg side for one.

Mitchell begins with an off-cutter, into the wicket. The line is around the hips. Suryakumar pulls it across to deep backward square leg for a single. Scores are level!

India romp home! Mitchell serves another short ball, around the left shoulder. Dube gets on his toes to ride the bounce and pulls it through mid-wicket for the winning run. The Men in Blue chase 209 in a canter as they get home with 28 balls to spare.
