Kristian Clarke to Arshdeep Singh, no run
OUT! KULDEEP YADAV IS RUN OUT! A brilliant piece of fielding, and Glenn Phillips has the final say in this game. Kristian Clarke lands this on a hard length and on off. Arshdeep Singh pushes it towards cover and sets off for the run. Phillips is quick to move to his right, picks it up, and without much of a backlift scores a direct hit at the batter's end in one motion. Kuldeep Yadav thinks he is in, and he turns back for the second run as the ball deflects away in the deep. However, it has been sent upstairs, and the replay shows that Kuldeep did not slide his bat inside in time. Phillips is ecstatic seeing this on the big screen, and every Kiwi player surrounds him to celebrate this historic win. NEW ZEALAND WIN BY 41 RUNS AND SEAL THE SERIES 2-1!
Kristian Clarke to Arshdeep Singh, 4 runs
FOUR! Oh..where has that come from? Good length and around off, Arshdeep Singh opens the face of his bat and guides it past point with fine timing for a boundary.
Kristian Clarke to Virat Kohli, no run
OUT! IN THE AIR....GONE! That is probably the game for New Zealand, and it is pin-drop silence here in Indore. Kristian Clarke goes fuller and on off. Virat Kohli tries to launch it down the ground, but his bat turns in his hands upon contact. He ends up mistiming it high in the air towards long off, where fittingly, it is Daryl Mitchell who settles under it and pouches it safely. It is disappointing for Kohli and India, as he walks back for a magnificent 124 off 108, but it won't be in a winning cause here. The crowd applauds him, but it is the Kiwis who are celebrating.
