Glenn Phillips scripted history by unleashing absolute mayhem against India as New Zealand shattered the record for their highest-ever T20I total against the opposition.

The commanding performance underlined the team's relentless batting prowess in the shortest format. The previous highest total against India was recorded earlier in 2026 when England posted 257 for three in Southampton.

Adding to the list of heavy totals against the Indian bowling attack earlier this year, the West Indies had also notched up 252 for four in Ranchi.

Phillips stood out at the center of the onslaught with a masterclass in power-hitting, guiding his side to an imposing milestone.
