Henry struck first ball, Duffy removed Suryakumar with a sharp return catch, and Santner ran through the middle order as India slipped to 82/5.

Match Highlights IND vs NZ 4th T20I Scorecard: With this consolation win for NZ, India cannot pull off a whitewash, as the series is 3-1 in favour of India with a game to go. Earlier, putting the Kiwis in to field first, the Indian bowling conceded too many runs against the openers Tim Seifert (62) and Devon Conway (44), who put on a century partnership.
While Arshdeep Singh (2/33) and Kuldeep Yadav (2/39) put the brakes, Daryl Mitchell (39*) played a cameo to take NZ to 215/7. India kept losing wickets regularly, but Shivam’s 23-ball 65 gave Team India some hope. After his dismissal, India was bundled out for 165 in 18.4 overs.
Earlier, India captain Suryakumar Yadav won the toss as the hosts decided to bowl against New Zealand. Ishan Kishan, the in-form batter, misses out due to a niggle.
