In reply india once again lost an early wicket agarwal and pujara then surged a fightback but the two along with kohli fell after getting starts.Post that,Rahane and vihari have shown gift and really batteled hard out there.They have consumed 118 balls so far to stitch a 31 run stand.That though was the demand of the hour as they neeses to hang in there.The visitors still hang in there.The visitors still trail by another 39 runs and their first aim on Day 4 will be to wipe off the difficult without loosing any more wickets.Can they do so? New zealand are not going to make it easy for them.Do join us at 11.30 local for what could also the final day of the game.
An excellent day for the hosts! They are in the drivers seat in this game! Right from day 1,they have been the dominant side and it continues to be that way.The only moment India had a sniff in this game was today morning when they got rid off Southee and wattlingin quick succession.However, it was all New Zealand after that.Colin de Grandhomme along with Kyle Jamieson and Ajaz Patel built a few handy stands.To make matters worse for India, Trent boult also played an outstanding cameo towards the end which took their lead close to 200 run mark.
jamieson to H. Vihari.Four! A boundary on the last ball off the day.Jamieson goes short and wide outside off,Vihari cuts it square on the off side and gets a boundary.That will be stumps on day 3.
jamieson to vihari, Length ball down the leg side,Vihari leaves it alone.
K jamieson to vihari, Excitement among the kiwi players. Jamieson bowls one short of a length delivery and it rears up on Vihari eho looks to defend but gets it it off the gloves towards leg gully. It does not carry to the fielder.Would not have mattered though as the buttom hand was off the handle when yhe ball made contact.
