Jaspreet Bumrah and Axar Patel, both hail from Gujarat, the state where Ahmedabad is located.
This is their home ground and both have delivered what their team needs most - a bunch of early wickets.
The crowd are of course loving this - chants of Axar, Axar and Boom Boom Bumrah for the local boys.
NZ 68-3
Half-century up with a six!
Tim Seifert brings up the landmark from 23 balls, twice clearing the ropes at long-on off Varun Chakravarthy's first over.
The opener will need to go a fair bit further than this - almost all New Zealand's hopes rest with him.
The players take drinks at the end of the powerplay.
It is, just about, India's match to lose.

New Zealand could not get control of the game because they didn't get wickets in the powerplay.
On the flip side India have taken wickets and look threatening. It's an understatement to say India are in control here.

Jasprit Bumrah’s slower ball has been utterly devastating this World Cup.
Powerplay done, as Jasprit Bumrah delivers another over without a boundary.
India were 92-0 at this stage.

New Zealand don't have time to rebuild so it's got to be the quickest relaunch in history.
Target 256
Mark Chapman is next up for New Zealand.
He knocks Axar Patel's last ball back to the bowler for a dot ball.

Former England fast bowler on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
Axar Patel pushed that a touch fuller and it's dangerous when it skids on with the arm against batters looking to take it on.
Phillips b Patel 5 (NZ 47-3)
Another New Zealand wicket down!
Glenn Phillips picks up his first four with a pull through mid-on, but Axar Patel has his revenge two balls later.
His delivery breaks through the New Zealand batter and takes his leg stump.
The batting side in deep trouble.
That's gone miles!
Tim Seifert sends Axar Patel deep into the stands at mid-wicket.
He looks in excellent touch.

India had a quiet start before they made the most of every over. But New Zealand losing these wickets stunts your progress and the run rate keeps climbing.
A crucial boundary-less wicket from Jasprit Bumrah, with new batter Glenn Phillips picking up a first ball single.
The required run-rate is up at 13.75 runs an over.

Party time in the stands, on the field and among the local journalists in the press box.

Jasprit Bumrah has done exactly what he did to Harry Brook and started with an off-cutter. Rachin Ravindra would have expected a pace-on delivery and he's through the shot.
Ravindra c Kishan b Bumrah 1 (NZ 32-2)
Jasprit Bumrah strikes immediately!
An first ball off-cutter befuddles Rachin Ravindra and the New Zealand number three skews into the air.
Ishan Kishan runs in from deep square and takes an excellent catch diving forwards.
India in control early on in this innings.
Rachin Ravindra walks in at three.
He takes a single square to get off the mark from his first ball.

Finn Allen is stood there thinking why I have not tried to lift that rather than slap it. Axar Patel does the job for his captain.
Prakash Wakankar
BBC Test Match Special commentator
A few more feet and Finn Allen would have got six. You could see the joy on Suryakumar Yadav's face because he move the field the previous ball.
