Kyle Jamieson drops one short, and Abhishek looks to pull it. He ends up mistiming it, but the ball has enough to go behind the keeper for a boundary. With this, he smashes his fourth T20I century. Gets there off just 35 deliveries. The next two balls then go for a six and four.

India 178/1 in 9.5 overs.

This has been pure madness in Wellington. Here are all the records set by India today:

Highest powerplay score ever (118 runs)

Fastest team fifty for a full-member nation in T20Is (2.2 overs)

Fastest team 100 in T20Is (5 overs)

Most sixes hit off the opening ball in T20Is (Abhishek Sharma - 8 times)

26 runs of the opening over (Jacob Duffy) - joint-most expensive opening over of a T20I innings alongside Malta’s Varun Thamotharam against Gibraltar.

Abhishek Sharma skies one up, but Mitchell Santner fails to get under it, and the chance goes begging. Nothing is going right for New Zealand in Wellington. Abhishek is now on 95 off 29 deliveries.

India 151/1 in 7.5 overs.

Sooryavanshi looks to go down the ground but ends up mistiming the shot. Matt Fisher with the first wicket for New Zealand and Sooryavanshi's 19-ball stay ends. He walks back for 45.

India 133/1 in 7.1 overs.

India 133/0 in 7 overs.

The final delivery of the powerplay goes for a six and Vaibhav Sooryavanshi moves into the 40s. India now have recorded the highest score inside the powerplay. 118 runs! Yes, you read that right!! 118!!!!!

Just 5 overs it has taken for India to bring up 100 runs. This is brute hitting from Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson. A remarkable feat! Can't take your eyes off the TV screens! The left-handed opening duo has made light work of the 199-run chase.

Adam Milne bowls on the pads, and Sooryavanshi just flicks the ball away for a six! Short square boundaries and both left-handers are having a field day in Wellington. This is crazy hitting.

India 91/0 in 4.3 overs.

Abhishek Sharma now goes 4, 6 and 6 against Kyle Jamieson, and a 15-ball fifty comes up for the left-hander. After bringing the milestone up, he hits another boundary! It is absolute carnage in Wellington.

India 84/0 in 3.5 overs.

It's now Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's turn to deposit the ball into the stands. Michael Bracewell drops it short, and the ball goes 30 rows back. A dot ball to close out the over. India are flying in Wellington.

Both Abhishek Sharma and Vaibhav Sooryavanshi have begun with bang bang! 26 runs off the Jacob Duffy over. What a start to the 199-run pursuit.

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi opens the batting alongside Abhishek Sharma and he doesn't need any time in getting underway. A four and six to start off with. India are up and running.

India 14/0 in 0.4 overs

Daryl Mitchell and Bevon Jacobs remain unbeaten on 88 and 39 as New Zealand finish with 198/3 in the allotted twenty overs. A solid total on the board, looking at how the hosts lost Tim Seifert in the 2nd over.

The experiment to give the 19th over to Nitish Kumar Reddy doesn't pay off! He gives away 15 runs and New Zealand are now closing in on the 200-run mark.

New Zealand 189/3 in 19 overs.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar brings all his experience into play and doesn't try to do much. Simple straight strategy. Keep the ball at the stumps. Mitchell and Jacobs take just nine runs off his over.

New Zealand 174/3 in 18 overs.

Arshdeep is nailing his yorkers for now, and both Mitchell and Jacobs are finding it difficult to hit him for boundaries. However, as we write this, Arshdeep has decided to go short, and a mistimed shot fetches Bevon Jacobs a six. The ball evades the long-off fielder, and New Zealand get six more runs added to the total.

New Zealand 164/3 in 16.5 overs.

Prince Yadav is into the attack and will bowl his third over of the game. Just five overs remaining, and India would look to contain the damage in the final stretch of the innings. Mitchell and Jacobs are seeing the ball well, hence it would be quite a task.

New Zealand 149/3 in 15.2 overs.

Axar Patel rounds off his spell nicely, giving away just seven runs in the 14th over. Daryl Mitchell and Bevon Jacobs were more than happy to play him out. Axar finishes with figures of 1/36 from four overs.

New Zealand 142/3 in 14 overs.
