49.3 Jimmy Neesham to Yuzvendra Chahal

Over 50. 4 runs. Bowler: Jimmy Neesham. India: 10-221(rr 4.42)

49.3 Jimmy Neesham to Yuzvendra Chahal

OUT! Caught. Jimmy Neesham to Yuzvendra Chahal. Slower ball back of a length, outside off stump on the front foot Slog, outside edge to wicketkeeper, by Latham. That's out, there's a nick and Chahal is gone. He's reviewed but Latham is confident. There's a big spike on UltraEdge and India are out of the World Cup. What a performance from New Zealand. That partnership yesterday between Taylor and Williamson seems a long time ago now and despite it feeling too slow at the time it's proved crucial. Matt Henry is man of the match and why not after that spell with the new ball. He and Boult ripped the heart out of India's top order and reduced them to 5-3. Jadeja was brilliant throughout for India but he couldn't quite get them over the line at the end, he was simply left with too much to do. So it's taken two days but New Zealand make it to the World Cup final for the second time in a row. Will this year see a repeat of the 2015 final or can England beat Australia and keep their dreams of winning on home soil alive.

OUT! Caught. Trent Boult to Ravindra Jadeja. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot Slog, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to cover, by Williamson.

The rate was climbing, lots of slower balls from New Zealand and India were struggling to find the boundary. Has Dhoni batted India out of another game? The pressure is all on him now.
