- Scorecard

NZ 1st inns: 0-0 (1 over)

Brendon McCullum walks out to open the innings with Martin Guptill in overcast conditions at the M Chinnaswamy stadium in Bangalore.

And surprisingly, India get left-arm spinner Pragyan Ojha to open the bowling. Wonder what MS Dhoni is thinking!!

The first ever time in history of Indian cricket that a spinner has opened a bowling for India in Tests.

The first ball is right up to the batsman as Guptill defends it back to Ojha, while the second is down the leg side. Ojha bowling it slower in the air and giving it a lot of air but Guptill is content to defend as Ojha stars with a maiden.
