    5th T20I: Kishan's 42-ball Hundred, Suryakumar’s 63 Carries India To Mammoth 271/5

    By IANS News January 31, 2026 • 21:16 PM View: 421
    Greenfield International Stadium: Ishan Kishan smashed a breath-taking 42-ball century while captain Suryakumar Yadav struck a fine 63 as India piled up a commanding 271/5 against New Zealand in the fifth T20I at the Greenfield International Stadium on Saturday.

    India’s innings featured 23 sixes, the joint most they have hit in a T20I game, with Kishan leading the assault after the early dismissals of Abhishek Sharma and local lad Sanju Samson inside powerplay. He and Suryakumar combined for a 137-run stand that dismantled New Zealand’s bowling attack and shifted momentum firmly in the hosts favour.

    Though Suryakumar fell to Mitchell Santner after reaching his half-century, Kishan continued his onslaught to bring up a scintillating first T20I hundred before departing for 103 off 43 balls, laced with six fours and ten sixes at a strike-rate of 239.53. Hardik Pandya added late fireworks with a brisk cameo of 42 off 17 balls to push India past the 270 mark, and get their third-highest score in the format.
