Santner slowed it up and got the ball to spin away wide of off, Shubman Gill thought it was a long hop and tried to maul the pull leg-side. Got a faint outside edge and the keeper did the rest. Santner was very confident about the edge and went up for the review almost instantly. Lures SKY onto the front foot with a full delivery and gets enough turn off the deck to beat him all ends up on the outside edge A tame push and past the edge 3.6 Santner to Suryakumar Yadav, no run, my word!

We knew it was spinning in the powerplay and it was nice to chip one out. I was trying to get it to skid on a little bit (Ishan Kishan's wicket) it's one of those ones, nice to pick up a wicket early in the innings and as a bowling unit, we were able to capitalize on that start. Santner ( 4-1-11-2) was the pick of the New Zealand bowlers and the skipper was well supported by his spin partners. But it was a great game and it was pretty tight at the end, we saw a lot of runs in the ODI series and it was nice to see the ball spin a bit more. It was nice to chip away some wickets in the powerplay and we had troubled doing that in the ODIs. In an era of match ups, Santner got his spot on and India were rocked early as they were 15 for 3; Bracewell accounted for the left handed Kishan, Duffy sent back Tripathi and Santner outfoxed the right handed Gill. SKY and Hardik steadied the innings and brought India back into the contest by the halfway mark, but the pair departed in successive overs and left the lower order with too much to do. There was a little bit of moisture out there towards the end, probably not as much as we were expecting. Player of the Match: It is nice to contribute to a score which helps us win a game. It is nice to take some momentum into the rest of the T20 series. It was my job to build a partnership and then take the onus on myself after Conway's departure. India would put this as one of their off days for the batters and look to come back strongly in the next game.

The onus to rebuild the chase is on the shoulders of Surya and Hardik. The Indian skipper has begun to show his A game. Poor choice of shot from the Indian captain and he pays the ultimate price. The ball pops out of his hands and Sundar is safe. Sundar and Hooda are currently batting and the Men in Blue have 5 wickets in hand. He gets under the delivery and smashes it over cow corner for a much-needed maximum. India vs New Zealand 1st T20I Highlights: Opener Devon Conway and Daryl Mitchell struck half-centuries to guide New Zealand to a comfortable 21-run win in the first T20I of the three-match series here on Friday. With this win, New Zealand go 1-0 up in the series. Mitchell Santner scores a direct hit at the non-striker’s end and catches Shivam Mavi might short of his crease. The visitors were on top of the game right from the beginning. But the hosts didn’t have the best of starts. For India, Washington Sundar (2/22) scalped two wickets, while Kuldeep Yadav (1/20), Shivam Mavi (1/19) and Arshdeep Singh (1/51) accounted for one batter each.
