The Indians had a disastrous outing as their innings never got going, folding up for a mere 108. Rahul Dravid, once again, top scored among the batsmen with a score of 20. Although the Kiwi bowlers bowled in a disciplined manner, evident from the 199 dot balls out of India's 247 ball stay at the crease, they ended up conceding 22 extras.

The home team won the match and eventually won the series 5-2, ringing the alarm bells for the Indian team preparing for the World Cup.
