17.3 Tim Southee to Shivam Dube
SIX! Tim Southee to Shivam Dube. Short, down leg side on the back foot pulling, well timed in the air under control over long on for 6 runs. Finished in style. Dube hangs back in the crease, and flat-bats this over long on for a maximum.India cruise to victory. A magnificent performance from the visitors. They set the game up with their bowling, and timed the run chase superbly. Lokesh Rahul and Shreyas Iyer were the stars with the bat, and just took the game away from New Zealand. A lot to think about for the Kiwis, as they have been outplayed in these first two games.The next match in this five match series is on Wednesday, where the hosts have to win to prevent India from taking an unassailable lead.
