A moment of brilliance by Shradul Thakur and skipper Virat Kohli brought India back into the game in the fourth T20I against New Zealand on Friday. India subsequently won the match after it went into a Super Over, for the second time in the series.

The runout helped the Men In Blue break the 74-run stand between Colin Munro and wicketkeeper-batsman Tim Seifert for the second wicket, with the opener departing after scoring 64 off 47 balls.

In the 12th over, Munro and his partner tried to steal a double after the ball had been slashed towards the sweeper cover region. However, Thakur quickly gathered the ball and released it to Kohli, who hit the stumps at the striker’s end to dismiss Munro.
