Matt Henry toppled India's batting line-up as New Zealand bowled out the Men in Blue for a mere total of 89 while defending a big target of 334. Henry took a six-fer for just 27 runs in 9.4 overs he bowled. The right-arm pacer removed Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer for ducks in the very first over. He also dismissed Ishan Kishan, Kuldeep Yadav and Gurnoor Brar to register his best bowling figures. Henry's heroics earned him Kohli's respect and the Indian legend gifted him his jersey following the game.

Kohli has gifted his jersey to a handful of cricketers in the past and Henry joined the list following the fourth game. The senior pacer won't play in the fifth ODI, as he will begin preparations for the Test series, starting November 19.

India are without the services of Shubman Gill, KL Rahul, Nitish Kumar Reddy and Mohammed Siraj as they are also preparing for the Test series.

India are 2-1 ahead in the five-match ODI series. The visiting team won the first two games while chasing targets. The third game was washed out due to rain.

India once again opted to bowl first after winning the toss but they suffered a big 244-run defeat in the fourth ODI. The fifth and final ODI of the series will be played at Bay Oval on Sunday (November 15).

The first Test of the two-match series will be played at Basin Reserve in Wellington from November 19 to 23. Christchurch will host the second Test from November 27 to 31.
