    Four more straight down the ground! Not perfectly timed but Guptill is on the charge.

  2. NZ 10-0published at 2.2 overs

    Martin Guptill pounces upon some width from Chakaravarthy and carves it away for the first boundary. That absolutely raced to the boundary.

    It will be interesting to see how many towels will be on the ground. That will give an indication if there is any dew. If there is it will make things so much easier for the New Zealand batters.

  4. NZ 6-0published at 2 overs

    A ripper of a leg stump yorker almost knocks Daryl Mitchell to the ground but New Zealand get out of the over unscathed.

    Just the single from it, but there is absolutely no scoreboard pressure so the batters don't seem particularly bothered.

    Self belief, indeed.

    Jasprit Bumrah takes the second over. Can he produce the miracle that India need?

    Target 111

    A calm and steady start from New Zealand. Just what they needed.

    India need to be very careful what bowlers they use in the powerplay. They need to be careful not to try get two or three overs of Shardul Thakur out of the way because New Zealand could get 20-30 runs off him.

    India can't win the game in the powerplay, but they can lose it.

  9. NZ 1-0published at 0.1 overs

    Varun Chakaravarthy takes the first over for India as they opt to start with some spin.

    Martin Guptill gets New Zealand off the mark with a single.

    Thanks, Tom.

    Well, for all the disappointment in India, this game is not over yet. They are undoubtedly favourites at the halfway mark but New Zealand's batting wasn't at its best in their first outing against Pakistan.

    Virat Kohli leads his team out to the middle with a very steely look on his face. He doesn't look in the mood for cracking jokes, let's put it that way.

    Optimism, that's what we love to see.

    It's time for me to take a break. Here is Ffion Wynne to take you through the New Zealand innings.

    New Zealand spinner Ish Sodhi: "It played a little bit slower than we expected.

    "The main tactic was bowling first and the toss was based on that. We didn't expect it to a turn a huge amount and neither did it. If you bowl a bit slower it holds in the pitch a little bit.

    "It is tough to catch here. We would definitely have taken restricting them to under 120."

  17. New Zealand need 111 to winpublished at 15:41 Greenwich Mean Time 31 October 2021

    So India limp along to 110-7. A brilliant effort from New Zealand.

    Can they follow it up with the bat to get the win?

    Thumbs up for yes, thumbs down for no!

    That was a good knuckle ball from Tim Southee. It took all the pace out of the ball.

    The lights can make catching difficult at Dubai.

    Interval - Ind 110-7published at 20 overs

    Southee with the final ball of the innings, it's short and powered away towards the fine leg boundary and DROPPED by Ish Sodhi.

    He can't believe it, though it does not prove too costly as India only run one.

  20. Ind 109-7published at 19.5 overs

    In the air...but safe! Ravindra Jadeja top edges it into the on side but no fielder can snare it and India can run two.
