Before the match started, the Indian skipper, Virat Kohli won the toss and opted to bowl first.

By the time the powerplay ended, New Zealand had raced away to 68 for no loss. However, Colin’s departure didn’t bring any relief for the Indian cricket team as Colin Monro and Kane Williamson’s brilliant partnership made Men in Blue sweat it out. Colin Munro completed his fifty off 36 balls in the eleventh over with a four off Yuzvendra Chahal’s delivery.
50 up for Munro ?
