    WICKET

    KL Rahul lbw b Santner 27 (Ind 182-4)

    What a review!

    Mitch Santner strikes again for New Zealand at a really crucial time. He breaks a dangerous partnership.

    Can the Black Caps make the most of this opening?

  2. The ball is trapped between bat and pad. Replays show that it's pad first, but KL Rahul has taken quite a big stride.

    Will that save him?

  3. Henry Moeran
    BBC Test Match Special commentator

    KL Rahul was advancing forward. It's the kind decision that pre-DRS, you never would have got but nowadays it might be a chance.

  4. New Zealand review

    Now then!

    A wicket after drinks?

  5. Virat Kohli has had that swagger about him today. He's intent on steering his side through yet another successful run chase.

  6. Henry Moeran
    BBC Test Match Special commentator

    That was about as controlled an edge as you can manage. Soft hands.

  7. Ind 182-3

    Target 274

    It looks like he nearly has the breakthrough, as Kohli edges behind for four, but replays show that was a deliberately guided edge and beautifully played.

    The deftest of touches.

  8. Trent Boult continues in his quest to break the partnership, as he did earlier to remove Shreyas Iyer.

  9. Daniel Norcross
    BBC Test Match Special commentator

    These two have steered the run chase back on track rather easily.

  10. Prakash Wakankar
    BBC Test Match Special commentator

    A bit of a directional problem down the leg side and KL Rahul was quick to pounce on it.

  11. Ind 174-3

    Target 274

    KL Rahul sweeps four more off Rachin Ravindra, and India are 100 runs away from their target.

  12. Cheers, Sam. India haven't run away with it yet, but with plenty of wickets in hand, they're certainly comfortable.

    They are just ahead of where New Zealand were at the 30-over mark.

    Kohli and KL Rahul are in cruise control at the moment, and New Zealand could do with someone taking a hat-trick.

  13. Ind 168-3

    It is beginning to look very ominous for New Zealand with Virat Kohli starting to go through the gears and KL Rahul settling in at the other end.

    To see if India march onto to victory, as seems likely, or New Zealand stage a brilliant comeback, I'll leave you in the ever capable hands of Ffion Wynne.

  14. Daniel Norcross
    BBC Test Match Special commentator

    I can tell, Prakash. You haven't stopped pacing back there.

  15. Prakash Wakankar
    BBC Test Match Special commentator

    I'm still tense.

  16. Ind 164-3

    Stunning.

    Virat Kohli is getting going now, shuffles down the pitch and hits a blistering drive through extra cover for four.

    Save your legs, Virat.

  17. Alex Hartley
    Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    That's turned sideways! Phwoar, that gets me going.

  18. Ind 160-3

    Big turn!

    Rachin Ravindra rags one past KL Rahul as the right-hander went for the big drive.

    There is still something there for the spinners but, as yet, they've not been able to turn that into wickets.

  19. Daniel Norcross
    BBC Test Match Special commentator

    For a moment, I thought the fielder in the deep was in the game but it just kept going and going.

    A super shot, inside out from Kohli.

    Ind 157-3

    Target 274

    Well, that's not particularly calm but it is brilliant from Virat Kohli.

    He sees Rachin Ravindra give the ball just a bit of air and he climbs into it, launching the ball ferociously over extra cover for six!
