New Zealand's discipline in the death overs won them the match. They conceded only 24 off the last four overs, got their yorkers spot on and made scoring very difficult even for the well-set Jadeja. Time and again, Vettori has pulled things back and his experience made the difference and Oram supported him well.

Thanks for your company today. Apologies for the glitches in the scorecard. We hope it will get sorted out soon. Cheers.
