The previous game’s centurion Arshin Kulkarni fell shortly this time but his opening partner and number 3 batter Musheer Khan weaved 77 runs partnership and later a big hundred by Musheer Khan led India to post a good total of 295.
New Zealand, in the chase, lost two wickets in the first over for zero runs following two world-class inswinging deliveries by Raj Limbani.

The second match was of Group 2 where Sri Lanka faced off West Indies. Batting first, Sri Lanka dealt some early blows but stable Dinura Kalupahana stood up with a half-century and led his team to post 231 runs.
A better opening stand and healthy contributions from the middle order and lower middle order helped West Indies to reach the asked score with three wickets in hand.
