Dominant India look to build lead on Day 4
October 11, 2016  09:56


India 30-0 (11 ovs) & 557-5d vs NZ 299 | Scorecard


India's two batsmen looking to rotate the strike with singles as they pick four runs from Santner's over, the second of the day before Henry sends down a maiden.

Santner also bowls another maiden before Vijay looks to break the shackles as he pulls a short ball from Henry over midwicket where the fielder in the deep makes a good effort, taking the catch just inside the ropes but fails to hold on as he loses his balance near the ropes. The fielder was Neesham, who manages to keep the ball inside the ropes but puts down the catch.

Change of tactics from Vijay, who looks keen to get going and not let the Kiwi bowlers stifle the scoring rate.

But with the field spread around, the Indians are only getting singles at the moment. The intent is certainly evident as Pujara looks to play the ramp shot against the short ball but fails to connect.

India have scored 12 runs from the first five overs on Day 4 to take their score to 30 for no loss in 11 overs.
