  1. That wicket has lifted New Zealand's chances on WinViz but India are still favourites.

  2. Ind 131-4

    Hmmm, maybe we're going back into 'nurdle' mode here as India consolidate - Michael Bracewell's latest over goes for just one run.

  3. Ind 130-4

    KL Rahul has joined Shreyas Iyer, following a partnership of 98 that really didn't look like ending anytime soon until just now.

  4. Katey Martin
    Former New Zealand wicketkeeper on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    That's maybe a bonus wicket for Ravindra. It gives New Zealand an extra option.

    Kane Williamson takes a catch to dismiss Axar PatelGetty Images

    Taken beautifully by Kane Williamson.

    It just kept sailing backwards. Williamson initially thought he could take it two-handed but then has to take it with one.

    It's broken the partnership.

    WICKET

    Axar Patel c Williamson b Ravindra 42 (Ind 128-4)

    'One-handed catch taken beautifully' - Williamson leaps to take Patel dismissal for 42

    What a catch!

    Axar Patel gets into a tangle, going back to Rachin Ravindra but only half-heartedly pulling him. It takes the edge and Kane Williamson, at short fine leg, steps back, possibly misjudges it, but takes a fine one-handed catch to his right.

  7. Daniel Norcross
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    It's beyond the sponge.

    That is the second six of the innings and first since Rohit Sharma in the third over.

  8. 6 runs

    Ind 127-3

    MIchael Bracewell would have been hoping to file this over away into the 'tidy' folder, but Axar Patel spoils it by stepping down the pitch and lifting him mightily over cover for the second six of the innings.

    Lovely shot.

  9. The partnership is putting India into the ascendancy.

    Shreyas Iyer celebrates his half-centuryGetty Images

    Shreyas just looks like he has so much time. He's really improved that pull shot to pace.

  11. 50 runs

    50 to Shreyas Iyer

    Ind 118-3

    And almost straight away he works the ball away to reach a nice half-century off 75 deliveries.

  12. Not out

    Dan is right, Shreyas's foot was back just enough.

    Tom Latham attempts to stump Shreyas IyerGetty Images

    That one's bamboozled Shreyas.

    It's on the line here, is it?

    I think he's going to be alright.

  14. Umpire review

    Ooooh! Rachin Ravindra drags Shreyas Iyer down the track a touch, it beats the bat and Tom Latham whips the bails off. We're going upstairs...

  15. Daniel Norcross
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Just dragged a little short from Bracewell. His last few overs have been a little loose.

  16. Ind 117-3

    Michael Bracewell carries on but I wonder if he may be tiring? He drops a few short and off the fourth Axar Patel hammers him high over mid-wicket for four.

  17. Katey Martin
    Former New Zealand wicketkeeper on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Ravindra is quite traditional in the way he bowls. He loves bowling.

  18. Ind 108-3

    Thank you, Tom!

    There's a change in the attack with Rachin Ravindra's left-arm spin making its first appearance, and the India pair nurdle him around for four runs although Shreyas Iyer was trying to pull him aggressively off the final delivery.

    What are we thinking total-wise? I'm going for 280.

  19. And now to see the India knock to a conclusion, here's your man Tim Oscroft.

  20. Aatif Nawaz
    BBC Test Match Special commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Shreyas has been waiting for a loose delivery for a while and he finally got one and pounced on it.
