Coming to the match, opener Devon Conway and Daryl Mitchell hit quickfire fifties to guide New Zealand to 176-6. Conway, a left-hand batsman, made 52 off 35 balls and Mitchell smashed an unbeaten 59 to take on the Indian attack, which got regular wickets but leaked runs.
New Zealand started strongly after being invited to bat first, with Finn Allen hitting a brisk 35 as the opener got regular boundaries, including two sixes.
Spinner Washington Sundar cut short Allen’s stay as the batsman mistimed a hit to deep mid-wicket, and struck again in the over to get Mark Chapman caught and bowled for nought.
