What's behind this
India secured a narrow 4‑run victory over New Zealand in the rain‑hit second ODI in Wellington, taking a 2‑0 series lead. New Zealand were bowled out for 134, with Indian pacer Gurnoor Brar claiming four wickets and earning Player of the Match for exploiting the extra bounce. After a shaky start, Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul steadied the chase, but opener Shubman Gill was dismissed on the first ball, caught by Henry Nicholls off Jacob Duffy. India were 113/7 in 26 overs, needing 22 runs from 66 balls when rain halted play and the Duckworth‑Lewis method awarded the win.
