Riding on a blistering 100-run opening stand between Tim Seifert (62) and Devon Conway (44), New Zealand registered their first win of the five-match series against India, beating the hosts by 50 runs in the fourth T20I here on Wednesday.

Seifert (62 off 36 balls, 7x4, 3x6) was the standout Kiwi batter but he did not have enough followers to fully drive home the advantage after India opted to field first.
