T20 World Cup: India's hopes damaged as New Zealand inflict second defeat

India's hopes at the Men's T20 World Cup are hanging by a thread after New Zealand inflicted a second successive miserable defeat on the pre-tournament favourites.

After a 10-wicket thrashing against rivals Pakistan in their opening game, Virat Kohli's side were again woefully abject with the bat to suffer an eight-wicket defeat.

India will likely need to win all three of their remaining matches, against Afghanistan, Scotland and Namibia - and turn around a huge net run-rate swing alongside other results going their way - to stand any chance of progressing.
