New Zealand was in no mood to give up their top spot at the T20I ranking as they crushed India in the 2ND T20 match in Rajkot

After a horrific loss in the first match, the Kiwis looked fired up to make the series even and they did exactly that, after winning the toss, they decided to bat first and turned out to be the best decision as Munro smashed a magnificent 109 off 58 balls while Guptill played the perfect supporting role, scoring 45 runs helping New Zealand score 195 runs in 20 overs.

India chasing lost wickets cheaply, opener went for combined 6 runs and once again skipper Virat Kohli stepped to the occasion but his brilliance was not enough to dig India out of the hole.

With the win, New Zealand has tied the series and the decider will be played on 7th November in Trivandrum.
