In the fourth ODI of the series against New Zealand, India was left reeling as the Kiwi bowlers gave early jitters to the visitors. With Shikhar Dhawan and Rohit Sharma sharing 21 runs for the first wicket, India did not have a good start especially after Dhawan's wicket was taken down by Boult. Then Boult and Colin de Grandhomme came down heavily on India, half of whose batsmen were back in the pavilion on a score of 34. 

Soon captain Rohit Sharma who was also dismissed by Boult who caught the batsmen off his bowling. Colin de Grandhomme cleaned up the middle order on a score of 0 which comprised of Ambati Rayudu and Dinesh Karthik.

Even though debutant Shubman Gill tried his best and was batting quite well in the middle order, but it didn't take Boult much time before he dismissed him by catching him off his bowling.
