Phillips' 107-run innings from 49 balls helped New Zealand to secure a total of 259 run at the Eden Park in Auckland. India tried, but produced a 172-run innings in reply. He got the Player of the Match award as the best performer of the match. But how was he able to play such a lethal knock against a star-studded Indian bowling line-up? The batter himself explained.
