New Zealand amassed 259 for 7 in the fourth T20I against India on Friday, October 30, and with it went a record that had stood for three and a half months.

New Zealand posted 259 for 7 in the fourth T20I against India at Auckland's Eden Park, setting a new record for the highest total ever conceded by India in T20I cricket. Glenn Phillips led the assault with 107 off 49 balls, supported by Michael Bracewell's quickfire 65 off 25 deliveries in a crucial 115-run fifth-wicket partnership.
The innings surpassed England's previous record of 257 for 3 set earlier in July at Southampton. Other totals rounding out India's top five highest conceded scores include West Indies' 253 for 5 in Ranchi, West Indies' 247 for 3 in Hyderabad, and England's 246 for 7 during the T20 World Cup semifinal.
