New Zealand vs India 2nd ODI live streaming

Dhoni's 84 not out is the best by an Indian skipper in New Zealand, beating Mohammad Azharuddin's 63 against New Zealand at Christchurch on January 19, 1999.Mahendra Singh Dhoni promoted himself to No.3, and played a sedate knock of an unbeaten 84 as India piled on 273 for 4 from 38 overs in a rain-reduced game.He said batting was India's strength and its hard-hitting batsmen were capable to take the total past 300 mark. "We have a couple of hard hitters like Yuvraj (Singh), (MS) Dhoni, (Suresh) Raina and Yusuf (Pathan) who can hit balls out of the grounds. We are expecting quick runs from them," Sehwag said. "If we don't lose wickets early, we can easily score 300 in every game. The new ball is important for us. In the last game we scored 273 off 38 overs. We could have gone on to 350-360 if it had been a 50-over game. Our batting is our strength.After a small wobble in the middle of the Indian innings where India lost a few quick wickets, Raina and Dhoni added 110 from just 12.2 overs to wrest the initiative away from the Kiwis.Dhoni rotated the strike cleverly since Raina was going great guns but it wasn't as though Dhoni was only the supporting act.
