IND 45/3 in 7 oversKerr continues. New Zealand bowlers are getting the ball to swing into the right handers. That has restricted Indian batters’ scoring area.

NZ 98/2 in 14 oversDeepti with her third over. Kerr rocks back and pulls to deep mid for a single. Kerr goes down the ground, falls well ahead of Harmanpreet at long off. Five singles from the over. Some confusion in the middle. Lengthy discussion between Harman and the umpires. The fourth umpire sent Kerr back when she was walking back to the dugout. Replays suggest that Kerr was run out while attempting a second run. The umpire returned the bowlers cap at the non-strikers end before the run out. Thus the point of contention is regarding whether the ball was dead before the run out was effected. - October 04, 2024 20:26 (India vs New Zealand Highlights)

Appeals for run out. A misunderstanding between the two batters in the middle as they attempted a second run. But, the throw came in at the wrong end. Devine just manages to get in. Another pull to long on for a single of a slightly shorter delivery. 6 from the over. - October 04, 2024 20:19 (India vs New Zealand Highlights)
NZ 75/2 in 11 oversAsha continues. NZ in the middle of a lull after both openers were dismissed in a trice. A run rate of 4.25 in the last three overs.Asha goes short, Kerr pulls to long on for a single. Tossed up to Devine, defended right back to the bowler. Devine steps down and drives on through the covers for a single. Just the three singles off the over. - October 04, 2024 20:12 (India vs New Zealand Highlights)

WNZ 68/2 in 9 oversAsha again. OUT! Plimmer comes down the track and is caught at long on. Two in two for India! Plimmer goes for 34 off 23 balls. Suddenly New Zealand has lost both its openers. Sophie Devine in at four. Asha keeping it tight, and Devine plays three dots before swiping the ball towards long on for a single. Only a single in that over plus a wicket. - October 04, 2024 20:02 (India vs New Zealand Highlights)
WNZ 67/1 in 8 oversReddy. Bates scoops and gets a double. There’s a change in intensity of Indian fielders now, in a positive way. OUT! Bates is gone. She goes for the slog towards midwicket and is caught in the deep. She falls for 27 off 24 balls. Amelia Kerr is here. Two dot balls to begin with. - October 04, 2024 19:58 (India vs New Zealand Highlights)
NZ 61/0 in 7 oversTerrific batting and poor fielding sum up the PowerPlay. Asha Sobhana into the attack. Both Bates and Plimmer aren’t shying away from using their feet and coming down the track. Plimmer hits slog sweep and a good fielding in the deep saves two runs. Plenty of running around. - October 04, 2024 19:534 (India vs New Zealand Highlights)
NZ 55/0 in 6 oversArundhati Reddy into the attack. Low full toss and Bates hits it toward square leg for a single. FOUR! That’s poor fielding. Plimmer hits the ball towards square leg, should’ve been just a single, but Renuka fails to collect the ball and it runs towards the boundary. DROPPED! Richa Ghosh drops Bates. She went for a slop and the ball went high in the air. Richa misjudges and the ball bounces off her gloves. Now Plimmer guides the ball towards fine leg and gets a boundary. Nothing going India’s way. - October 04, 2024 19:49 (India vs New Zealand Highlights)
NZ 43/0 in 5 oversDeepti continues. Bates comes down the track and chips the ball towards short midwicket. Shafali the fielder dives but can’t reach, Bates gets a single.

NZ 35/0 in 4 oversRenuka continues. Boundaries continue to come. This time mistake by Richa Ghosh as the New Zealand gets four-byes. Plimmer wanted to scoop and shuffled across and the ball beats both batter and the keeper. Richa Ghosh is standing up to the stumps. India appeals for a stumping though not much excitement from Indians. Plimmer is inside, not out. Plimmer comes down the track again and lofts the ball towards midwicket but only for a single. - October 04, 2024 19:394 (India vs New Zealand Highlights)
NZ 29/0 in 3 oversSo we have change in bowling. Deepti Sharma into the attack. Starts off with a wide down the leg. It was way too close to be called a wide though. Harmanpreet Kaur is having a discussion with the umpire. Plimmer comes down the track and smacks the ball straight past mid on for four. Now Plimmer hits towards sweeper cover and gets two more. Follows it up with a single, pushed towards square leg. Plimmer comes down the track and lofts the ball over JUST over the long on fielder. Umpires are checking whether it is a four or a six. It’s a SIX. - October 04, 2024 19:35 (India vs New Zealand Highlights)
NZ 13/0 in 2 oversRenuka Singh from the other end. Bates takes a single off the first ball. Not much movement so far, slight inswing for Renuka and Plimmer gives the strike back to Bates. A touch fuller by Renuka, Bates makes slight room and drives the ball towards cover and runs a double. Beats! Shaping up for an inswinger but holds it line and beats Bates’ outside edge. A good over. - October 04, 2024 19:304 (India vs New Zealand Highlights)
NZ 9/0 in 1 overPooja Vastrakar to bowl the first over. Short ball and Bates pulls the first ball towards square leg for four. Slightly fuller, and Bates just pushes the ball towards mid on for a dot. Third ball, Bates walks down the wicket and pushes the full ball past mid on for four. Vastrakar pulls her length back slightly and Bates cuts towards deep third for a single. Straight., full and Plimmer defends. Pulls her length back, Plimmer charges down the track but can only push the ball back to Vastrakar. - October 04, 2024 19:23 (India vs New Zealand Highlights)

Pitch reportHas cooled down slightly, breeze flowing across the ground might mean dew might not come in. Firm, plenty of live grass. Should be moderate pace and bounce. Spin could come later but if there’s dew, that probably won’t happen as well, reckon Nasser Hussain and WV Raman. - October 04, 2024 19:07 (India vs New Zealand Highlights)
