One for the pacer, too:
Adam Milne shatters the stumps to pick the last wicket of the match as New Zealand beat India by 47 runs. And it was the three-pronged spin attack of New Zealand that caused the demolition with a combined 9 wickets. The target of 126 is the lowest India has failed to chase down. It is also their second-lowest T20I score.
New Zealand have maintained their unbeaten streak against India in World T20
Little to no hope left:
MS Dhoni in a bid to go after the bowling, ended up giving a catch to Nath McCullum, who dived forward to take it brilliantly at long on. Ashish Nehra and Jasprit Bumrah are at the crease.
Dhoni to the rescue, again:
Yes, the man is at it again. Even as New Zealand are in the driver’s seat at the moment, MS Dhoni has consolidated India’s innings with a steady partnership along with Ravichandran Ashwin. He hits one straight down the ground to bring some cheer for the home crowd in the ground.

After 20 overs New Zealand 126 for 7: Luke Ronchi hits two boundaries and a six in the dying stages of New Zealand’s innings and scores 21 unbeaten runs off 11 balls to help his team reach 126 for 7 wickets in 20 overs. For India, Ashwin, Nehra, Bumrah, Raina and Ravindra Jadeja took a wicket each.
Toss:
Kane Williamson, New Zealand skipper has won the toss and elected to bat. It’s a big ground and the pitch is expected to get slow. In a surprising move, New Zealand have left out Trent Boult and Tim Southee from the starting XI and are playing three spinners. “We will have a bat. It is a dry surface and we will make first use of it and then use our spinners,” he said.Chants of ‘Dhoni Dhoni’ have already engulfed the VCA Stadium in Nagpur.

India Will WIN
Home grounds and other form factors.
New Zealand captain Kane Williamson on coming into the World T20 after playing a Test series at home said
“I suppose whatever build-up that you have, it doesn’t promise success. I think in the international game, it is important that you get your head around changing formats consistently.”
Where as India batsman Virat Kohli on the quick rise of players like Hardik Pandya and Jasprit Bumrah.
“They have not paid that much attention to who is in the opposition, who I am bowling to or batting against. They have backed their skills, which they also do in the IPL, and that has been an X-factor for our team in the last few series.”
