India thump Kiwis
And India have thumped the Kiwis by a big winning margin here in Raipur. The bowlers starred while the batters joined the party later to clinch the series by 2-0 with a match to go. If the death bowling was a bit off-colour in the previous ODI, it has made all big strides in this one. Since the word go, India were all over New Zealand as the bowlers jolted the Kiwi lineup. Shami and Siraj set it up, while others chipped in to get NZ all out for 108. The Indian openers provided a solid start as Sharma hit a fifty, while Gill remained unbeaten. India lost two wickets but Kishan and Gill saw India cross the line in the 21st over. India have won the series with one match to go. We now walk to Indore for the final match of the series. Expect a few changes? Well, we shall find that out on 24th January. Don't forget to join India TV. I Varun Malik, sign off. Take care!

Shipley finds 1st wicket
Henry Shipley has found the first wicket for New Zealand as India's captain Sharma walks back after a fifty. This was pitched on a good length and probably stayed a bit low as Sharma got beaten while trying to guide the ball on the leg side. Well-made fifty for Rohit but he has to go back. Kohli now walks into bat.

Fifty for Sharma
Indian captain Rohit Sharma has hit a fifty in this meagre chase. This was good batting from him as he smashed the bad deliveries without taking many risks. India is inching close to a win.

Rohit, Gill take India past 50
Indian openers Sharma and Gill are leading this chase well. They have taken India past 50 inside the powerplay. Sharma is being the aggressor, while Gill is not much behind his captain. India looking to wrap things up quickly.

Rohit, Gill lead India's charge
Both the openers Shubman Gill and Rohit Sharma have made a solid start and are leading the charge well. Rohit Sharma is taking on the bowlers. This is good batting.

Sharma ups the ante
Indian captain Rohit Sharma has made an expressive start. He has hit 3 boundaries, including one six off his favourite pull shot. Note, NZ could not hit a single six today.

Rohit, Gill make decent start
It's a decent start for India as both Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill are going well. They made a careful start and have stepped on the paddle a bit in the 4th over.

NZ bowled out for 108
And New Zealand are bowled out for just 108 in the second ODI. Surely not that sort of a surface. It was rather a dominance diaplayed by the Indian bowlers. They bowled disciplined lines and got maximum rewards in the form of wickets. Shami and Siraj started the party for India, while the others chipped in as India continued sending blows to the opposition camp. Phillips, Bracewell and Santner spent some time in their attempt to bail NZ out but they were sent back after getting starts. So India require 109 to clinch this series against Kiwis.

New Zealand 9 down
New Zealand are 9 down now as Ferguson has also been caught by Suryakumar at deep mid-wicket. Sundar gets his 2nd wicket as India are 1 wicket away from bowling their opponents out.

January 21, 2023 4:01 PM (IST) Posted by Varun Malik
Phillips walks back
Sundar has struck in his second over as the last recognised batter Phillips walks back to the hut. This was dragged short as Phillips wanted to pull this but it was not enough to clear Suryakumar at deep mid-wicket. NZ are 8 down now.

Shami sends back Bracewell
Shami has found the breakthrough as Bracewell has nicked this bouncer straight to Ishan Kishan behind the stupms. Just when a partnership was building for Kiwis, Shami has come as villain for them and a hero for India.

Spin time as Kuldeep Yadav brought in
It's spin time in Raipur as Kuldeep Yadav has been brought in by Rohit Sharma. Will need to see what role spin will play here.

Can Bracewell, Phillips bail NZ out
New Zealand are in big hole as they are 5 down but the batters Phillips and Bracewell are looking to bail their team out of this trouble. NZ still have Santner sitting but they need these two to spend as much time as possible. Meanwhile, Shami is back for India.

What is lowest ODI total?
If you are taken aback by the brilliant performance of India and wondering what is the lowest total in the history of ODIs. Let me tell you, the lowest total is 35. Zimbabwe was bowled out for 35 by Sri Lanka. Can this be shattered?

Shardul gets his 1st
It's winter in all parts of India but it's monsoon in Raipur as wickets are raining like anything. Shardul Thakur has sent back the Kiwis' captain Latham as Gill takes a comfortable catch at slips.

Pandya sends Conway back, NZ 15/4 after 10
Hardik Pandya has sent back Devon Conway as he completed a brilliant caught and bowl in his 1st over. NZ 4 down. New Zealand have got just 15 runs in the first 10 overs. Big credit goes to the disciplined bowling as the balls were pitched on good length areas. Looked like a sort of Test match bowling. The last match's hero for NZ Bracewell has come out. Can he inspire another comeback?

Double bowling change for IND
So India have replaced both Shami and Siraj with Shardul and Pandya just before the powerplay ends. Conway has hit first four of the match in the 8th over of Shardul. India bossing at the moment.

Shami brings NZ 3 down
Mohammed Shami has struck once again and wickets are raining in Raipur at the moment. Shami has caught and bowled Mitchell and NZ are in big trouble. Captain Tom Latham comes out to bat way too early than he would have liked. Note, NZ are yet to get into double digits.
-

Siraj gives India their 2nd
And Mohammed Siraj has also struck and given India their second inside the powerplay. This is a great start for Rohit Sharma's men. This was pitched on good length, close to the body as Nicholls tried flirting with it only to get a nick to Gill at slips. NZ 2 down.

IND holding NZ by neck

Another poor outing for Allen
This was another poor outing for the Kiwi opener Finn Allen, who is invested by the New Zealand side in place of Martin Guptill. Allen has scored only 1 fifty in his last 9 innings.

Shami draws 1st Blood
And Mohammed Shami has given India a great start. This was a beautiful swinging ball to beat the Kiwi opener Allen and shatter the timber to send the crowd cheering. NZ 1 down without a run on board.

No Umran as Thakur makes cut
So Umran Malik is not picked as the Indian team goes with Shardul Thakur yet again. The pitch looks to suit batters, will this be the reason why he is chosen?
