Over 15 Summary: ... ... India Beat New Zealand by 96 Runs to Win T20 World Cup 2026 Final; Become First Team to Lift Trophy Three Times
Over 15 Summary: Arshdeep Singh's Discipline Stifles New Zealand
The left-arm seamer Arshdeep Singh returns to the attack and shows why he is a vital cog in Surya's machine. After the high-scoring drama of previous overs, Arshdeep nailed his lengths, starting with two brilliant dot balls to Santner. Despite a minor hiccup with two consecutive wides, he quickly corrected his line. The Kiwi batters, desperate for boundaries, were kept to just five runs in the over. The pressure of the 20+ required run rate is clearly showing on the scoreboard.
| Mitchell Santner: | 35* (25b) | 4s: 1 | 6s: 2 |
| Jimmy Neesham: | 8* (5b) | 4s: 1 |
