The T20I win for India has been fantastic and no less than a perfectly scripted winning story straight out of a movie. This is the first time for the men in blue who have won a T20I series in New Zealand and a major chunk of this winning streak is being given to KL Rahul, who has been in exceptional form for a while. One particular moment from the match which got his fans cheering was when during the third over, he made a brilliant run-out happen and flipped the game.

As the New Zealand team chased a target of 164 runs, the team lost its top order batsmen in the first 4 overs and was unable to recover from there. KL Rahul and Rohit Sharma were instrumental in leading the Indian team to a score of 163/3. India will now face the host team yet again on February 5 at Seddon Park in Hamilton for the first ODI in the upcoming three-match series.
