Two Super Overs in two successive games - New Zealand yet again wasted a winning position to tie the fourth T20I against India. Needing seven to win in the final over, New Zealand lost as many as four wickets, with India pulling off another jailbreak. The visitors chased down a target of 14 in the Super Over to take a 4-0 lead in the five-match series.

The Twitterati was quick to react to New Zealand's latest choke:

The Super Over has become a familiar feature in games involving New Zealand. However, they haven't quite held their nerve such situations.
