Mitchell McClenaghan comically picks Rohit Sharma over Kane Williamson as captain

Indian pacer Mohammed Shami played a key role in derailing New Zealand's run chase in the final over, defending 2 runs off the last 4 balls successfully. After the scores were leveled and the Super Over was played, New Zealand made a formidable 17 but the Indians chased that down courtesy vice-captain Rohit Sharma's two brilliant sixes off the last two balls.
