Glenn Phillips hits century as New Zealand claim T20I victory against India

Phillips, batting at number 4, scored a monumental 107 from just 49 deliveries that included six fours and 10 sixes, while Michael Bracewell smashed 65 off 25 balls as the Blacks Caps amassed a total of 259-7, their highest T20I total at home.

India's bowlers toiled with none of the visitors' seven bowlers going for under nine runs to the over, although Mayank Yadav did take three wicketsfor 48 runs in four overs.

Duffy then put India under the skids in the run-chase with figures of 4-23 in his fours overs, as the tourists were restricted to 172-9 after 20 overs.

The seamer was well supported in the field, with Matthew Fisher and spinner and home skipper Mitchell Santner took two wickets apiece.

India have won the five-match series but New Zealand pull another game back when the fifth and final match is played in Hamilton on Sunday.
