June 22, 2021 22:15

India 32-1 (14 ovs) & 217 vs NZ 249 | Scorecard

Jamieson bowls it wide but Pujara happy to leave it alone. The first three balls are left alone before he bowls one close to the stumps which is defended.

The last ball jags in sharply as Pujara looks to flick but is struck high on the pads.

Southee continues with the ball, his seventh in a row in the first spell. He gets the ball to move away as Rohit is opened up and gets it off the outside half of the bat towards gully.

He then taps the next on the leg side for a single before Pujara ducks under a bouncer and blocks out the last two balls.

Trent Boult is back into the attack. Rohit takes on the short ball as he mishits the pull but it falls safely to get him a single.

Boult gets the full delivery to swing in sharply as Pujara gets it off the inside half of the bat, as it falls just short of the fielder at short leg.

A few balls later, Pujara clips an overpitched delivery on the stumps through midwicket for three runs, to level scores.
