After losing the toss, India were tasked to bat first. The Men In Blue looked in all sorts of trouble at 30/3 after losing Shubman Gill, Rohit Sharma, and Virat Kohli in quick succession.

However, they could post a good-looking total of 249/9 in 50 overs, thanks to Shreyas Iyer's 79, Axar Patel's 42 and Hardik Pandya's 45. For New Zealand, Matt Henry scalped an exceptional fifer.

In response, New Zealand got bundled out for 205 runs in 45.3 overs to give India a 44-run win. Varun Chakaravarthy was the star of the show for Team India, scalping a brilliant five-wicket haul. Kane Williamson showed impressive resistance, scoring 81 runs from 120 balls, albeit in a losing cause.
