India have once again beaten New Zealand in a match which stretched to the Super Over.

Virat Kohli's men won the fourth Twenty20 International in Wellington to go 4-0 up in the five-game series.

The visitors posted 165-8 in 20 overs and in reply New Zealand tied the score for the second consecutive match.

Needing seven off the last over, the Black Caps lost four wickets to take the match into a Super Over.

Colin Munro and Tim Seifert guided them to 13-1 in the eliminator and in response, India reached the target with one ball remaining.

The fifth and final game of the series will be played in Mount Maunganui on February 2.
