New Zealand has now featured in four Super Overs in the last year including the 2019 World Cup final. New Zealand has lost on each occasion, with the last three defeats coming in T20I series at home against England and India.
India, on the other hand, played its first Super Over in international cricket in Hamilton and after Friday night's win, has a 100 per cent win record.
