  1. Ind 17-1

    India captain Rohit Sharma was a fitness doubt for this game with a hamstring injury and he's not moving too smartly as they squeak a two. One to watch.

  2. Ind 15-1

    The two NZ seamers have looked really good early on this morning. Both beating the bat regularly and keeping things tight.

  3. Ind 15-1

    Virat Kohli is at the crease. Volume increases.

    It's hitting the top of leg stump and he has to go.

    WICKET

    Gill lbw b Henry 2 (Ind 15-1)

    'Up goes the finger!' - Gill dismissed lbw by Henry for two

    Got him! Missed a straight one. Out.

  6. Henry Moeran
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    It looked a good shout, I have to say.

    It's close to the edge.

  7. No bat on this. Surely the breakthrough.

  8. India review

    NZ have responded well and think they have the first wicket...

  9. Ind 15-0

    That six was actually straighter than it looked, was closer to long on. Was way back over the ropes, wherever. Made a lovely sound off the bat.

  10. Henry Moeran
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Rohit heaves it over the distant boundary. That's some shot.

  11. 6 runs

    Ind 15-0

    'That is some shot!' - Rohit heaves a six over long on

    A 0% chance of rain, 24C in Dubai. Turned out nice again.

    Rohit Sharma has seen enough, takes two premeditated strides down the track and absolutely whacks Matt Henry for a huge six over deep mid-wicket. Goodness me that flew!

  12. Ind 7-0

    Really good over from Kyle Jamieson. Just a single off it.

    England white-ball cricket is at a low granted but the batting is there, the fielding is good, a balance with the bowling attack needs to be found. The question is are those spinners and medium bowlers out there? England will return to winning ways when their belief in themselves returns.

  14. Ind 6-0

    The tall, angular Kyle Jamieson is the new bowler, jagging in all in black. He seams a beauty past the edge of Shubman Gill to start his spell.

  15. Katey Martin
    Former New Zealand wicketkeeper on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    I was waiting for him to play that pull shot.

    I reckon that is hit as much in the middle of the bat as possible from Rohit Sharma.

  16. Ind 6-0

    'whizzing away to the boundary!' - Rohit smashes Henry's delivery over mid-wicket for four

    Losing to get an 'easier' run to the final? The Southgate approach may come into play here.

    Lovely ball from Matt Henry to beat Rohit for pace, that carried nicely. And again! Good opening over for NZ... until the final ball which Rohit rocks back on to whip through the leg side for four.

    Maybe the team that loses this game has it easier in the semis on paper - that being said South Africa have been excellent in the last couple of tournaments

  18. Ind 2-0

    Rohit inside edges the first ball just past leg stump, instant hands on head for the NZ field and instant runs on the board.

  19. Katey Martin
    Former New Zealand wicketkeeper on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    I would rather face South Africa in the semis.

    Every player in this New Zealand side has contributed one way or another but the India team probably haven't been tested as much.

  20. Ind 0-0

    Matt Henry has the ball in hand... let's play!
