NZ 1st inns: 8-1 (5 ovs)


Williamson steers Zaheer on the off-side to open his account. Guptill then plays him on the leg side to get himself off the mark as New Zealand get two runs from that Zaheer over to reach four for one after four overs.

That last delivery must have encouraged Dhoni to continue with Ojha. Guptill charges down the wicket and tries to whack it through the leg side but gets an inside edge. The next ball is well flighted as Guptill defends and does the same with the next ball.

Guptill finally breaks the shackles as he lofts Ojha over the mid-off fielder for the first boundary of the Test match.

After five overs, New Zealand are eight for one.
