Live Cricket Score, India vs New Zealand 2nd T20I: Welcome to our live blog of the 2nd T20I between India and New Zealand to be played at Eden Park, Auckland. 80 runs - the margin of defeat for India in the first T20I, their biggest ever in the format. Also, the first time on this whole tour that their bowlers were rendered ineffective. New Zealand smashed 219 runs in their quota of 20 overs before bowling out the Men in Blue for just 139. Everything that could possibly go wrong looked like it went wrong for the visitors in the series opener. The bowlers were taken apart, catches were dropped, the fielding was poor and the batsmen never looked like they would get near the target. It was almost as if India had not turned up for the game. It would serve better though if we would rather give it to New Zealand who played a brand of cricket that was fearless and helped them thoroughly outplay a strong Indian unit.

Live Cricket Score, India vs New Zealand 2nd T20I: NZ 17/1 after 3 overs

11.48 IST: Khaleel to Munro, SIX! NZ 25/1 in 3.4 overs

*Kane Williamson walks out to the middle

11.44 IST: Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Tim Seifert, OUT! GONE! Edged behind and Dhoni takes a simple catch. Bhuvneshwar strikes. Tim Seifert can't replicate what he did in the series opener. A bit short, outside off, the opener looks to slog across the line but the ball keeps slightly low and takes the under-edge. Just a feather, which is all India need. The ideal start for them. NZ 15/1 in 2.3 overs

11.42 IST: Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Tim Seifert, SIX! First maximum of the game. That short, straighter boundary showing its colour already. Short of a length on middle and off, Seifert muscles the heave over long on.​ NZ 15/0 in 2.2 overs

11.40 IST: Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Tim Seifert, FOUR! That's smacked. Adjusted well after coming down the track. Kumar goes a little short, but Seifert brings those fast wrists into play as he pulls it through backward square leg for a boundary.​ NZ 9/0 in 2.1 overs

11.38 IST: Khaleel Ahmed to Tim Seifert, Play and a miss! Good length delivery around off, holding its line, Seifert looks to loft it over mid on but gets beaten.

*Khaleel Ahmed to bowl from the other end.

11.31 IST: Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Tim Seifert, Good length delivery outside off, Seifert mistimes the cut shot straight to the point fielder.

11.30 IST: We are ready to begin now. Colin Munro and Tim Seifert will open the innings for the Black Caps. Bhuvneshwar Kumar will take the ball first up. Here we go...

11.25 IST: Both the teams are out for their respective national anthems. We will begin with India's first.

11.15 IST: Pitch report - Simon Doull and his antics. He is hanging himself on the pitch-roller while doing his pitch report. Starts by informing us that the boundaries are short in Auckland. He advises by saying that you don't want to be bowling full with straighter boundaries on the shorter side. Feels that the bowlers need to pull their lengths back a bit and bring squarer boundaries into play. Signs off by mentioning that the spinners have done well here in spite of Eden Park being a small stadium.

11.07 IST: Playing XIs

IND XI: R Sharma, S Dhawan, V Shankar, R Pant, MS Dhoni, D Karthik, H Pandya, K Pandya, B Kumar, Y Chahal, K Ahmed

NZ XI: T Seifert, C Munro, K Williamson, D Mitchell, R Taylor, C de Grandhomme, M Santner, S Kuggeleijn, T Southee, I Sodhi, L Ferguson

11.05 IST: Captain's speak

Kane Williamson: "We are going to bat. Usually a good batting surface here. It's always a great opportunity to play against India. Same team for us today."

Rohit Sharma: "We were looking to bowl first anyway. I know we lost the last game, but chasing has been our strength. We have spoken about what we need to do with bat and ball. Hopefully we can get a win today. We just need to do the right things and do them consistently. We discussed what went wrong in the last game. Hopefully we won't repeat them. We are playing the same team. I know there will be a lot of talk about Krunal and Kuldeep. Kuldeep has been top class for us."

10.30 IST: Hello and welcome to our live blog of India vs New Zealand 2nd T20I from Auckland

Brief Preview: A strong comeback will be expected from India after the hammering from New Zealand in the series-opener when the two teams square up in the second T20 International at Eden Park on Friday. After suffering their biggest loss in T20 Internationals in terms of runs on Wednesday night, India don't have a lot of time to introspect with just 24 hours separating the two games. It was the kind of day when nothing went right for India who let New Zealand amass 219 before surrendering meekly in the steep chase.  (Read Full Preview)
