With the number of catches we dropped today (2 in the super-over itself), New Zealand should have not only won the match but won it with ease.
“Catches win matches” will forever be proved wrong if India win this match 😂😂😂😂

The Kohli run-out apart, another forgettable day in the field. It is an issue now.

Two dropped catches in the super over... India needs to fix the fielding errors.

I had given up, honestly. I was ready to take a lunch break.
New Zealand, though. SERIOUSLY?

After the World Cup final, we thought 'oh, what a once in a lifetime game', 'what thrill'.
Well, this is the SECOND super-over they have LOST in just this series. And I am falling short of words.

New Zealand loves Thanos. They always make the score perfectly balanced. #SuperOver

Quite Incredible to have a #SuperOver in back to back matches. The Indian seamers were simply outstanding in the last 3 overs to defend 18 . Love this quality of fighting till the end from India. Great win #NZvsInd pic.twitter.com/Eq9lV83xcf

Needing 7 runs from the last over, with no real tension of losing wickets, the Kiwis still managed to take things to a super-over. They scored 6 runs as 4 of their batsmen were dismissed by Shardul Thakur.
Again thriller 🔥🔥..what a match man...

Again #SUPEROVER
Shardul thakur is superb in slog over.
He has done what shami did in previous match. pic.twitter.com/EQ5Nb0HCqB
NZ seems to have no answer to play a #Superover but still they end up playing it.

Now, I am all for sportsmanship and New Zealand is truly, my 'second team' - but at this point, I have to say: Tumse na ho paayega. Twitter does too.
They gave India a target of 14 to achieve in the super-over, which, to put it simply - was not tough at all.
I think we can officially give the #chokers tag to @BLACKCAPS . Just refuse to take the win even when it's served on a platter. Well played India. #SuperOver #INDvsNZ

It’s high time that all matches with New Zealand start from super over directly. No one has so much time to waste. #INDvsNZ

That being said, what a brilliant performance by Indian bowlers in death overs. They have proved yet again why they are called the 'best bowling unit in the world'.
