  1. Ind 51-0

    Sweep from Rohit Sharma, in the air... and just past short fine leg for four.

    The fielder put a dive in and wasn't far away. But there is no stopping Rohit at the moment.

  2. What Kane Williamson decides to do is turn to spin. Mitchell Santner, New Zealand's best bowler at this World Cup, is into the attack early...

  3. Ian Smith
    Former New Zealand wicketkeeper on BBC Test Match Special

    It's all about what Kane Williamson can do now to change this up to unsettle these two India batters.

  4. Ind 47-0

    Rohit 34, Gill 11

    There is a bit of respite for New Zealand with Shubman Gill on strike for the last three balls of the over.

    However, the runs keep coming as a misfield at cover allows the ball through and Gill gets two.

  5. Andy Zaltzman
    BBC Test Match Special cricket statistician

    In the 2019 semi-final (batting second), it took India 35 balls to reach double figures, by which point they had lost three wickets. In 2023 they were 10-0 off just five balls.

  6. Ian Smith
    Former New Zealand wicketkeeper on BBC Test Match Special

    You couldn't write a worse script for New Zealand at the moment. They don't quite know what they are doing. The Black Caps are at Rohit Sharma's mercy.

  7. 6 runs

    Ind 44-0

    Six more!

    Rohit Sharma sends the Wankhede Stadium wild again as he latches onto a short ball from Trent Boult and pulls it miles back over fine leg - 15 rows back into the stand.

  8. Matthew Henry
    BBC Sport in Mumbai

    Press conferences can be relatively mundane affairs. The best moment of Rohit's yesterday was he said "fortune favours the brave" and an excited murmur went around the local journalists in the room.

    Is that what we're seeing from the India captain here?

  9. Ian Smith
    Former New Zealand wicketkeeper on BBC Test Match Special

    I was living under the cap of Mark Chapman in the deep. I think he thought he was in business but Rohit Sharma is someone in such good form it goes over the boundary.

  10. 6 runs

    Ind 38-0

    Are we on for a Rohit Sharma special? The early signs are that we might well be...

    The India skipper faces Tim Southee for the first time in the match and promptly pulls him behind square for four.

    He whips the next ball high into the leg side and for a moment it looks as though Mark Chapman at deep square might be a chance, but the ball keeps going, over his head for six.

  11. Ian Smith
    Former New Zealand wicketkeeper on BBC Test Match Special

    New Zealand have often preferred to bowl first but it was noticeable at the toss that Kane Williamson said they would have batted first on a used pitch. Emphasis on used.

    What is this controversy about? If it was changed from a pitch favouring fast bowlers to a pitch favouring spinners, all it does is it favours Jadeja and Kuldeep rather than the best trio of fast bowlers in this tournament. I don't see any difference in outcome. It is how you play on the day. Mountain out of a molehill.

  13. Ind 25-0

    Trent Boult sends down a leg-side wide but that is the only other run is the over.

    Ten from the first over, eight from the second, seven from the third - it is gradually improving for New Zealand, I suppose...

  14. Ian Smith
    Former New Zealand wicketkeeper on BBC Test Match Special

    That's a blow to the solar plexus of New Zealand because that is almost an impudent shot. To come that far and telegraph it so early...Trent Boult could do nothing about it. New Zealand just have to stay in the fight and hang in there.

  15. Prakash Wakankar
    BBC Test Match Special commentator

    That is the shot of a man who seems to do no wrong at the moment.

  16. 6 runs

    Ind 24-0

    Wow.

    Rohit Sharma skips down the pitch and hammers the ball over extra cover for six!

    That is some shot. India's intentions are abundantly clear in the opening exchanges.

  17. Ian Smith
    Former New Zealand wicketkeeper on BBC Test Match Special

    New Zealand are trying to find a testing length early on while India's batters are not allowing the bowlers settle. It's started exactly as we thought it might do. There will be a lot of mutual respect here.

  18. Ind 18-0

    Shubman Gill lets the last ball of the over go through to Tom Latham behind the stumps.

    Two overs down, four boundaries for India. Not a lot of lateral movement for the New Zealand bowlers.

  19. Ian Smith
    Former New Zealand wicketkeeper on BBC Test Match Special

    The secret to me is to take early wickets. It's not rocket science. That means Tim Southee and Trent Boult. This pitch has been used twice before, but New Zealand need that combo which have served them so well to serve them well here.

  20. Ind 18-0

    Tim Southee takes the new ball from the other end and offers Shubman Gill a freebie third ball.

    Full, on the pads and clipped through square leg for four.

    Four more - but this one is more than a touch fortunate. It's another attempted leg-side flick from Gill but it deflects off the insidge edge - the ball whistles past leg stump and down to the fine leg boundary.
