New Delhi: Cricket yesterday became an analogy to highlight the warm ties between India and New Zealand as Prime Ministers Narendra Modi and John Key drew references from the game to stress on the progress made in their bilateral equation.

The references came on a day when India were taking on New Zealand in the fourth match of a five-game ODI series.

Modi was the first to speak in the joint press briefing that followed the exchange of agreements between the two nations. Referring to the ongoing ODI series, Modi said some cricketing terms were apt description of the progress made in the two countries' bilateral ties.
