New Zealand vs. India 2nd ODI Live Score & Updates Welcome to CricketNews.com's live coverage of the second ODI between New Zealand and India at Hnry Stadium in Wellington. India batting updates The match is over as India clinch a four-run victory (D/L) to go 2-0 up in the series. Rain has stopped play. The DL par score is 109, and India are ahead by four runs. After 20 overs, IND are 86/5 India slipped to 86/5 at the end of the 20th over, turning what looked like a routine 135-run chase into a tense battle. Shreyas Iyer grafted a crucial 30 off 46 balls (4 fours, 1 six) before nicking Kyle Jamieson behind to Tom Latham on the final ball of the 20th over (19.6 ov). Fisher broke the 4th-wicket stand in the 13th over, having Axar Patel (7 off 17) caught by Jacob Duffy at 47/4. Rahul anchors the chase: KL Rahul remains unbeaten on 14* off 21 deliveries (2 fours, 1 six), holding the key alongside India's lower order. After 10 overs, IND are 40/3 Defending a modest target of 135 in 47 overs, New Zealand's new-ball attack struck vital early blows to reduce India to 40/3 by the end of the mandatory powerplay. Duffy removed captain Shubman Gill for a golden duck in the second over before having Virat Kohli (7 off 7) caught by Will Young in the fourth. Rohit Sharma provided early impetus with a brisk 23 off 28 balls (2 fours, 2 sixes), but fell to Kyle Jamieson in the ninth over after mistiming a shot to Henry Nicholls. Despite the top-order wobble, India require just 95 runs from 222 deliveries at a manageable required run rate of 2.56, with Shreyas Iyer (9* off 18) and promoted batter Axar Patel (0* off 6) holding the fort. After 41 overs, NZ are 134/10 New Zealand have taken a concussion replacement as Matt Fisher comes in for Blair Tickner. New Zealand suffered a catastrophic collapse in the middle-to-death overs, sliding from 112/5 to 132/9 at the end of the 40th over. Patel struck the decisive blow in the 35th over by removing Daryl Mitchell (55 off 104), caught by Kamboj, before bowling Kyle Jamieson (7 off 14) in the 39th. Brar finished an exceptional spell of 10-2-30-4, having Mitchell Santner (31 off 38) caught behind by Rahul in the 36th and removing Nathan Smith (3 off 9) caught by Rohit Sharma at 39.5 overs. After 31 overs, NZ are 100/5 Daryl Mitchell and Mitchell Santner steadied New Zealand’s innings, taking them to 99/5 at the end of the 31st over with an unbroken 46-run stand. Mitchell has anchored the innings tenaciously, moving to 44* off 85 deliveries with four boundaries and two maximums. Santner added valuable impetus from the other end, reaching 23* off 28 balls at a strike rate of 82.14. After 20 overs, NZ are 53/5 Gurnoor Brar completely broke the spine of New Zealand's middle order in the 20th over, as he produced a sensational two-wicket maiden that removed Tom Latham and Glenn Phillips without conceding a run. Latham (7 off 22) looked to break the shackles after a 30-run stand, but miscued an aerial attempt off Brar (19.2 ov) straight to Naman Dhir. Four deliveries later (19.6 ov), Glenn Phillips was drawn into a false shot, spooning a catch to Anshul Kamboj to exit for a four-ball duck. Daryl Mitchell remains the sole stabilizer for the Black Caps, battling to 24* off 47 deliveries. After 10 overs, NZ are 29/3 India dominated the opening 10 overs, leaving New Zealand reeling at 29/3. Auqib Nabi removed Tim Seifert for a duck (1.5 ov), caught by Kamboj, before getting Will Young (6 off 17) caught behind by KL Rahul in the 6th over (5.4 ov). Anshul Kamboj entered the attack and struck in his first over, castling Henry Nicholls for 11 (26b) in the 9th over (8.4 ov). Arshdeep Singh delivered a suffocating opening spell of 4-1-4-0 (20 dot balls), giving the Kiwis zero scoring room from his end. Toss result: India have won the toss and have opted to field (47 overs per side) Pre-match: India and New Zealand head to Wellington for the second ODI, with rain and strong winds threatening to disrupt proceedings at the Basin Reserve. Showers are forecast around the scheduled start, potentially making conditions challenging for both sides. Nitish Kumar Reddy is unavailable after joining India A ahead of the upcoming Test series. New Zealand, meanwhile, will be without the injured Devon Conway, leaving Will Young with added responsibility at the top of the order. The pitch at the Basin Reserve features long straight boundaries and shorter square ones, a contrast to Auckland's Eden Park. Bowlers will need to adjust their lengths accordingly, while the weather could ultimately have the biggest say in the contest.
