SIX! Hit extremely hard! Good-length delivery on the middle stump, skidding off the track. Daryl Mitchell clears the front leg and swings it over deep mid-wicket for a flat six.

 SIX MORE! Even better from Mitchell! Slammed hard into the surface, outside off, Daryl Mitchell picks the length early and launches it effortlessly over deep mid-wicket for a huge six.

Angled onto the pads, whipped across by Mitchell, but straight to the fielder at mid-wicket.

Hits the back of a length, on the leg stump, Mitchell rides the bounce and nudges it wide of square leg for a single.

Tailing in on the leg stump, full in length, Seifert flicks it to the mid-wicket fielder.

Finishes it off well. Nails in a yorker and gets some inswing as well, on the leg stump. Seifert's head falls over as he tries to dig it out. Shovels it to the mid-wicket region for a single. 14 runs off Prince's first.

A big swing and a miss! Serves it on a good length, outside off. Seifert clears the front leg and tries to hit through the line but can only connect with thin air.

FOUR! Up and over. Pace taken off by Bhuvi, fuller and at the sticks. Tim makes room to open up the off side. He waits for the ball to arrive before carving it over extra cover. Tilak Varma gives chase but the ball wins the race.

SIX! Clean as a whistle. Kumar goes searching for the yorker but misses his mark. Serves it right in the slot, on middle. Seifert backs away, clears the front leg and pumps it over the sight screen for half a dozen.

SIX! And again. With that, the 50 comes up for New Zealand. It is the knuckleball by Bhuvneshwar and the length is dragged back, on off. Seifert moves to the leg side and frees his arms, thumping it with a horizontal bat towards the sight screen. 37 runs in 13 balls since that dropped catch.

Around the tramline, very full. Seifert reaches out but loses his footing and bunts it down to extra cover.

FOUR! Streaky, but they all count. This has been quite the momentum shift since the dropped catch. 20 runs off the final over of the Powerplay. At the end of 6 overs, New Zealand are 59/1, needing 133 runs in 84 balls. Pitched up, outside off. Seifert throws his hands at the ball. It flies over short third off an outside edge for a four.

India have run out of their reviews! Flighted up, it is the googly, full and on middle. Mitchell shimmies down the track and shapes up to clip it away with a closed bat face. The ball spins back in to go past the inside edge and pings him low on the front pad. A single is taken as the ball goes away on the off side. Sanju Samson and Varun Chakaravarthy convince Shreyas Iyer to take the review. A spike on UltraEdge when the ball is next to the bat. The on-field decision is upheld.

Shorter and on middle, that is punched off the back foot to long on for a single.

Wide! Sliding down leg, on a nagging length. Mitchell misses out on the tickle. Good work by Sanju Samson to move to his left and whip the bails off quickly but Daryl had his back leg ground inside the crease.

Slower through the air, on a good length, on off. Mitchell clears the front leg and swipes it away off the inner half to deep mid-wicket for one.

This is quicker through the air, on a length, on middle. Seifert pushes it down to long on and crosses over.

SIX! Good use of the feet. Sliding on with the arm, on a length, on middle. Mitchell skips down the track and reaches the pitch of the ball. Launches it over long on, where Tilak Varma is a mere spectator.

Rapped on the pads! Skidding through, on a nagging length, outside off. Mitchell shuffles across for the block but is beaten on the inside edge and gets hit on the pads. The impact looked outside the line there.

Prince follows Seifert with a good-length delivery as he backs away. Tim plays all around it and wears it on the pads.

Full and fast, around leg. Seifert clears the front leg and swats it away to deep mid-wicket. They cross.

Good hustle! Tailing back in, it is a low full toss, on the pads. Mitchell fails to help it away. The ball thuds into the pads and trickles into the vacant square leg region. The batters take the first run hard and make it back for the second before Sanju Samson can get to the ball.

SIX! Watch out in the crowd! Prince hits the back of a length, on middle. This sits up to be hit and Mitchell stands tall to pummel it over deep square leg for a flat six.

Yorker attempted but it comes out as a low full toss, on middle. Mitchell taps it away towards wide long on for only a single.

At 109 kph, curving back in, flat and short, on middle and leg. Seifer gets low to swing it away on the leg side but gets an inside edge onto the pads.

Keeps it away from the batter's arc, fuller in length. Seifer reaches out and slices it off the outer half to the left of deep point. Just a single.

OUT! CAUGHT! Varun Chakaravarthy breaks through for India. A lot of air given by Varun, full and on off. Mitchell puts his head down and swings through the line. He does not quite get hold of it, and it dips on Abhishek Sharma, who charges in off the long off fence. He dives forward to take the catch. A quick check upstairs and the replays confirm that Sharma had his fingers under the ball and at no point did the ball come in contact with the turf. New Zealand are now 2 down for 82, needing 110 runs in 69 balls.

Doing too much! Another optimistic shout from Varun Chakaravarthy but that is going down leg. It is the googly, on a good length, on middle. Phillips plays around it and wears it on the front pad.

Skidding through, shorter and on top off. Glenn dabs it wide of point for a single.

Floated up, on off. Seifert extends his hands and plays a punchy drive along the ground. Shreyas Iyer dives to his right at extra cover and gets a hand on it. He gets back up on his feet and keeps the batters down to a single. End of a successful over for Varun Chakaravarthy and India. A wicket and 3 runs off it.

Six.
