    India have humbled New Zealand at Guwahati by eight wickets, taking an unassailable 3-nil lead in the five-match T20 series


    The hosts reached the 154-run target with 10 overs to spare.

    Indian opener Abhishek Sharma posted an unbeaten 68 off 20 balls - that's a strike rate of 340.

    However, Black Caps captain Mitch Santner believes the match was lost elsewhere on Sky Sport.



    The Scorchers have won a sixth Big Bash League T20 title, beating the Sixers by six wickets in the final.

    Black Cap Finn Allen scored 36 to help his side chase 133 with 15 balls to spare.
