New Zealand slipped again when Kuldeep Yadav sent Glenn Phillips back for 12 and Krishna bowled Mitchell Hay for 18. The in-form Mitchell stood firm to raise his fourth 60-plus score in his past five ODI innings, including two centuries. But Mitchell kept up the attack and he hit Krishna for two fours and a six before the bowler had him lbw in the 48th over.
