India pile up 271/5 as Kishan ton headlines brutal batting show

Thiruvananthapuram, Jan 31 (UNI) Ishan Kishan’s breathtaking century, captain Suryakumar Yadav’s audacious strokeplay and a ferocious finishing act by Hardik Pandya powered India to a towering 271 for five against New Zealand in the fifth and final T20 International here on Saturday.
Opting to bat at the Geenfield International Stadium, India lost Sanju Samson (6) early, and despite Abhishek Sharma’s brisk 30, New Zealand briefly sensed an opening. That hope was swiftly extinguished by Kishan and Suryakumar, who unleashed a sustained assault that ripped the heart out of the New Zealand bowling.
Kishan produced one of the most destructive T20I innings of his career, smashing 103 off just 43 balls with six fours and 10 sixes. He tore into the spinners, particularly Ish Sodhi, racing through the gears with a mix of slog-sweeps, reverse hits and towering straight blows.
