17th over: 211-4 (Pandya 4, Varma 4)

Finn Allen drops Tilak Varma! The balls goes almost straight to him at backwards point but it bounces off Allens strapped left hand. He grimaces. Duffy still manages a relatively tight over, though.

Yadav opts to send Hardik Pandya in next, who picks up a single before watching Kishan send one into the hands of long-on. Neesham’s pumped.

Kishan joins Abhishek and Samson in making a half century, off Santner’s last over, and he takes India past 200. Still five overs to come…

Samson hits three sixes in a row off Ravindra’s bowling and this is absolutely astonishing. New Zealand are cooked here, surely.

12th over: India 161-1 (Samson 67, Kishan 34)

Ferguson is belted all around the ground as back-to-back sixes from Samson keep India racing through their innings. They pass 150 and Kishan takes his turn, smashing a six which just clears the rope at long-on, before Samson finishes the over with a four, rocking on to his back foot before clearing mid-on. Devastating batting!
