India 218-3 (68 ovs) & 318 vs NZ 262 | Scorecard

Kohli gets a thick outside edge as he looks to drive Santner through the off-side but again it flies away from the fielder at point and goes for a four.

The left-armer then bowls a beauty, dragging the Indian captain forward who looks to defend but is beaten all ends up before he retains strike with a single from the last ball.

In the next over, Kohli sweeps Craig for a single to fine leg as he looks to keep the scoreboard moving and get some momentum back in the Indian innings.

Pujara, who had been struggling to score in the last few overs, finally breaks the shackles as he rocks back and hits a short ball through the covers for a four.

Santner has a confident shout for LBW turned down against Kohli as the batsman came forward to defend and the ball looked to have struck both the bat and pad at the same time. Tough call for the umpire and he gives the benefit of doubt to the batsman.

Another failure for Kohli as he looks to sweep Craig but ends up getting caught at deep midwicket for 18.

A bit more bounce caused Kohli's downfall as he looked to sweep it square but ended up getting a top edge, straight into the hands of the fielder in the deep, giving Craig his 50th wicket in Test cricket.

Ajinkya Rahane gets off the mark in some style as he punches a short ball from Craig through the covers for a four.
