India vs New Zealand 4th T20I Live Updates: Virat Kohli does in in style, slapping a back-of-length delivery from Southee towards the vacant midwicket fence as India snatch another victory from the jaws of defeat to go 4-0 up in the series. Tim Southee’s will probably be having nightmares about the two lost Super Overs for a month now. New Zealand’s luck just remains rotten. Tough being a Black Caps fan. Preview: New Zealand will hope to end their losing run against India in the fourth T20I in Wellington, with only pride left to play for after surrendering the series with an unassailable 3-0 lead. The Black Caps failed to defend a challenging score of 203/5 in the first T20I at Auckland’s Eden Park, and were outplayed in the second game of the series that took place at the same venue on the Indian Republic Day, posting just 132 in 20 overs that was easily overhauled by the visitors. The Kiwis however, fought back admirably in the third T20I in Hamilton, with Kane Williamson’s 48-ball 95 nearly guiding the side home in their chase of the 180-run target. However, the last-minute brain-fade saw the match ending in a tie from a position where the home team needed two to win from four balls with six wickets in hand. New Zealand’s hoodoo as far as Super Overs are concerned continued as Rohit Sharma smacked back-to-back sixes off Tim Southee to help his team seal the series with a memorable win. Williamson will be hoping to rally the troops and raise their morale after the heartbreaking defeat at Hamilton’s Seddon Park, and try and pull things back in the remaining games. His Indian counterpart Virat Kohli, on the other hand, signalled the need to give the bench a try in the last two games and fine-tune their combinations with the ICC T20 World Cup in mind. Kohli, however, maintained the experimentation, in no way, will interfere in their quest to complete a 5-0 hammering of the Kiwis after having already clinched their first T20I series win in New Zealand. Here are all the details on the live coverage of the fourth game of the five-match series: Squads: India team players: Rohit Sharma , Yuzvendra Chahal , Shivam Dube , Shreyas Iyer , Manish Pandey , Rishabh Pant , KL Rahul , Virat Kohli(c) , Ravindra Jadeja , Kuldeep Yadav , Shardul Thakur , Jasprit Bumrah Navdeep Saini , Washington Sundar , Sanju Samson New Zealand team players: Kane Williamson (capt) , Martin Guptill , Ross Taylor , Scott Kuggeleijn , Colin Munro , Colin de Grandhomme , Tom Bruce , Daryl Mitchell , Mitchell Santner , Tim Seifert (wk) , Hamish Bennett, Ish Sodhi , Tim Southee , Blair Tickner .

20 Overs: It’s a tie! We have another Super Over! Two Super Overs in as many games! What a game it turned out to be in the end, going down to the very last delivery of the last over! Santner steers the ball through point, but straight to a fielder and is comfortably run out while coming back for a second. NZ 165/7
Santner run out (Samson/Rahul) 2(2)
19.5 Overs: OUT! What an over from Shardul Thakur! Now Mitchell miscues to get caught by Dube at wide extra cover! NZ 164/6; need 2 off 1
Mitchell c Dube b Thakur 4(3)
Surely, not!?
New Zealand aren't going to mess this one up, too, are they?!

19.3 Overs: OUT! Mitchell sets off for a run after missing the ball completely, and Rahul’s bang on in his throw as Seifert gets run out! NZ 163/5; need 3 off 3
Seifert run out (Rahul) 57(39)
19.1 Overs: OUT! Shardul Thakur strikes first ball! Are we in for a thriller now! Taylor skies the ball towards deep square leg, and perishes! NZ 159/4; need 7 off 5
Taylor c Iyer b Thakur 24(18)
After 19 overs,New Zealand 159/3 ( Tim Seifert (W) 57 , Ross Taylor 24)
Saini bowls the penultimate over, and starts off with a dot. Seifert gets a thick top edge off the second delivery, the ball landing between three converging fielders near long leg, Kohli clearly not happy with the confusion on the field. Single off each of the last two balls. New Zealand need 7 off 6. Surely, we’re not getting any surprises today, are we?
After 18 overs,New Zealand 155/3 ( Tim Seifert (W) 54 , Ross Taylor 23)
Risky single collected by Taylor off the third delivery, Pandey missing the striker’s stumps narrowly to allow Seifert to continue. Seifert crunches the ball through point next ball to bring up his 2nd T20I fifty, and bring his team closer to the finish line. Bumrah misses a direct hit off the last delivery, looking slightly disappointed with himself despite finishing with quality figures of 1/20 at the end of his quota. NZ need 11 to win off 12 balls.
After 17 overs,New Zealand 148/3 ( Tim Seifert (W) 48 , Ross Taylor 22)
Thakur returns to the attack, and concedes a boundary first ball — Taylor slapping a back-of-length delivery through point. Seifert gets a leading edge that lands short of backward point, allowing him to set off for a single. Two singles collected off the last three deliveries, with the Black Caps left needing 18 runs off as many deliveries.
After 16 overs,New Zealand 140/3 ( Tim Seifert (W) 46 , Ross Taylor 16)
Bumrah brought back in the 16th, Kohli hoping for a miracle now. Run out chance in the second delivery, with Taylor setting off for a leg bye after getting rapped on the pad, with Seifert beating Bumrah in the dash to the striker’s end. Seifert collects a boundary off the fourth by steering a full toss towards the third man fence. 10 from the over, with the equation almost run-a-ball now for the Black Caps — 26 off 24.
