Henry's six wickets power New Zealand to a 244-run win as India collapse for 89

New Zealand beat India by 244 runs in the fourth one-day international at Bay Oval, Mount Maunganui, on Friday 13 November, keeping the five-match series alive at 2-1 to India. Will Young's 125, supported by Tim Seifert's 58 and Finn Allen's 41, took New Zealand to 333 all out in 50 overs after stand-in captain Shreyas Iyer chose to bowl. Matt Henry then produced a career-best 6 for 27, removing Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Iyer for ducks in a triple-wicket maiden in the first over of the chase. Iyer was leading India in the absence of Shubman Gill, on his debut as ODI captain. The third ODI of the series had been abandoned because of rain.

India were bowled out for 89 in 26.4 overs, with Ishan Kishan top-scoring with 27 and Axar Patel making 21, in India's second-biggest defeat by runs in ODIs. The series decider will be played at the same ground on Sunday 15 November. Henry, who was named Player of the Match, finished with 6 for 27 in 9.4 overs, including two maidens, and completed his five-wicket haul by dismissing Kuldeep Yadav. He became only the second New Zealand bowler to take six wickets in an ODI against India, after Shane Bond in 2005. The win was also New Zealand's second-biggest in ODIs, and they can level the series by winning the decider, though they cannot win it. Young had capitalised on early reprieves and India's fielding lapses on his way to the century.
