53' NZ HAVE A PC WITH NZ A MAN DOWN - VARUN FLICKS THIS ONE WIDE!!

ROSS KEEPS THAT ONE OUT AND NZ BREATHE EASY

52' INDIA HAVE A PC!!!! THE CROWD ROARR!!

52' INDIA LIVING DANGEROUSLY AS PATHAK SOMEHOW SAVES ONE YET AGAIN AS NZ SHOOT FROM CLOSE RANGE

51' IT ALMOST SEEMED LIKE NZ HAD MADE A MESS OF THE PC, BUT FINDLAY SCORED.

SAM HIHA MISSES A SITTER AS PATHAK SAVES ONE RIGHT IN FRONT OF GOAL!!!

49' India holding on at the back but NZ have a PC - their second!!!!

48' Krishan Pathak gloves a tomahawk as NZ ups the ante - Child and Lane testing the Indian defence

47' Simon Child skies one after Sam Lane has a go!!!!!! NZ looking dangerous in the India circle

46' india free hit outside the NZ circle, no space up ahead and the home try a back-pass route
