It was inevitable with the rain being relentless. The teams shake hands as India escape from losing the series 2-0. New Zealand deservingly walk away with the trophy after dominating two games.
The clock is ticking
We have been losing overs and we are definitely getting close to a stage where the game gets called off. Spectators have already started leaving.
Rain stops play
It was drizzling for a while and now it has gotten heavier. The players are heading back into the dressing rooms. New Zealand comfortably ahead at 104/1 after 18 overs but in terms of the DLS, two more overs need to be bowled in order to force a result.
Jinxed!!
No 100 for Allen tonight. The wait will continue as Umran Malik strikes for India. The partnership is broken three short of a hundred. It has come a bit late you must say with New Zealand needing only 123 more runs to win this contest. This was short and wide and Allen just toe ends it to cover. Soft dismissal but a job well done.
50 for Finn
He didn't look comfortable initially against the new ball when it was doing a bit but now Allen has settled down and is taking his chances. He smashes a six to bring up his fifty and you got to say the stage is set for him to bring up his maiden ODI hundred.
They are racing away now
The boundaries are flowing. India understandably look flat already. They don't have enough in the bank to defend and Allen alongside Conway is making merry.
Good start for New Zealand
It was a testing period initially but Finn Allen is slowly finding his groove and Devon Conway gets going finally in that final over of the powerplay to smash Deepak Chahar for four boundaries. New Zealand had only 28 runs in the first seven overs of the chase but after the 10th over, they already have 59 runs on the board. This should be a straightforward chase for them.
India 219 all out
Not sure why Washington reviewed that decision. The noise was quite clear when the ball went past his bat and was caught by the keeper but he goes for the challenge anyway. Replays confirm that there was indeed a nick. India are 219 all out. A poor performance indeed. New Zealand will fancy themselves to seal this 2-0.
