Patel takes on Indian bowlers

- Scorecard

NZ 2nd inns: 247-9 (72 ovs) & 365 vs India 353

That was a disappointing over from Yadav as he hardly tested the two batsmen, bowling it short and was easily kept out.

Zaheer starts with a full wide delivery which Boult lets go and then drops the second ball on the off-side for a single. Patel then uses the long handle to good effect as he lofts Zaheer back over his head for a boundary.

Zaheer then switches to round the wicket and it is on the rib cage which Patel defends on the leg side for one.

Boult now tries to slog Zaheer on the leg side but gets an inside edge for two runs as Yadav makes a good diving stop on the ropes at fine leg.

NZ gets 10 runs from that over as the lead grows to 259 runs.
