Virat Kohli reigned supreme once again with a 91-ball 93 and skipper Shubman Gill hit 56, but India huffed and puffed before completing a nervy four-wicket win against New Zealand in the opening ODI of the three-match series here on Sunday.

In pursuit of 301, India were in complete control when Kohli departed in the 40th over, but a flurry of wickets saw the home side go over the line with 306-6 in 49 overs.
