New Zealand all set for Day 4 after ending on 101

The rain-delayed match saw Virat Kohli’s men all out at 217 with Jamieson leading the bowling attack with a five-wicket haul. New Zealand started their first inning on a strong note with a 101 for two by the end of the day. Though New Zealand lost both their Openers, Conway could just score a half-century 54 off 152 balls before Ishant Sharma clinched his wicket and Tom Latham could post just 30 runs before Ashwin took him down.

New Zealand bowlers’ relentless efforts paid off as they curtailed India with Neil Wagner(15-5-40-2), Tim Southee (22-6-64-1), and Trent Boult (21.1-4-47-2) taking their time to decimate India. Jamieson was a nightmare for India’s batting order taking down Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Pant first and later came back to remove Ishant and Jasprit Bumrah off successive deliveries. Black Caps captain Kane Williamson and Ross Taylor would resume on Day 4.
