India Vs New Zealand 2nd ODI 2026 LIVE: Daryl Mitchell’s audacious scoop seals win

Daryl Mitchell finishes it off in style. Harshit Rana bangs it short outside off and Mitchell shuffles across a long way, stands tall and audaciously ramps it over his left shoulder. He doesn’t even get low, but the timing and elevation are perfect as the ball sails over the keeper’s head for four.

Mitchell tumbles to the ground after making contact, flashes a broad smile, and that sums up the night for New Zealand. The Kiwis secure a comprehensive 7-wicket victory to level the three-match ODI series.

"We’re going to bowl first. It looks like a really good surface, and hopefully the dew comes into play later in the evening, which should make things a bit nicer for batting under lights.

“We would actually have preferred to bat first, based on the last few games here. Even yesterday there wasn’t much dew, and the players feel the surface tends to slow down as the innings goes on, so batting first looked the better option. Personally, I felt really good in the last game - the rhythm and fluency were there, and it’s always nice to contribute. Hopefully I can build on that and produce a big one today. Washington is out of the series, so Nitish comes in for him.”
