Daryl Mitchell hit an outstanding unbeaten century as New Zealand levelled their one-day worldwide sequence towards India with a seven-wicket win in Rajkot.
Mitchell placed on a 162-run partnership with Will Younger (87) and completed the match with an elaborate scooped 4 whereas falling backwards.
The 34-year-old, who hit 84 within the first match of the sequence, introduced up his eighth one-day worldwide hundred from 96 balls.
He got here to the crease with New Zealand 46-2 after the dismissals of Devon Conway (10) and Henry Nicholls (16) and took the sport away from the house aspect.
Younger was caught by Nitish Kumar Reddy off the bowling of Kuldeep Yadav, however Mitchell accomplished the chase alongside Glenn Phillips (32) with 15 balls to spare.
India reached 284-7 on the finish of their 50 overs, thanks largely to KL Rahul’s 112 not out.
Shubman Gill struck 56 on the prime of the order, however no different batter reached 30 as India set an underwhelming goal.
The sequence concludes with the third ODI in Indore on Sunday, with a five-match T20 sequence to observe.
