NZ 286-8 (87 ovs) vs India 557-5d | Scorecard


The drinks break works for India as Neesham is trapped leg before wicket immediately after the resumption.

Neesham tries to play the sweep but is beaten by the turn and struck on the backfoot as the umpire rules him leg before wicket after a good innings of 71.

That completes Ashwin's five-wicket haul, his 20th in Test cricket.

Neesham is unhappy as the ball pitched on off-stump and looked to be turning away but umpire Dharmasena upholds the appeal. That was a touch unlucky as Neesham walks back disappointed.

New batsman Matt Henry wastes no time as he targets Ashwin, lofting him for a four and a straight six.
