Arshdeep Removes Allen Early as New Zealand Reach 15 for 1 in Chase of 192

Arshdeep Singh struck early in New Zealand's chase in the fifth T20I at Seddon Park in Hamilton today, removing Finn Allen for 2 off 3 balls, caught by Ishan Kishan, as the hosts slipped to 9 for 1 in 1.3 overs.

At the end of 3 overs, New Zealand were 15 for 1, with Tim Seifert on 11 off 12 balls and Daryl Mitchell yet to score off 3 balls.

New Zealand are chasing 192 after India posted 191 for 8, and India lead the five-match series 3-1, so a win here gives them a 4-1 series victory.
