Rahane 5, Pant 11
Kyle Jamieson starts with yet another maiden after the break and Kane Williamson will want him to carry on for as long as possible, the way he's bowled this morning.

Former New Zealand captain on BBC Test Match SpecialBy using the bottom hand Pant has been able to control it and smear it slightly. It was as if the ball was fuller.
drinks break Ind 89-4published at 43 overs
Rahane 5, Pant 11
A remarkable shot to finish the over from Rishabh Pant as he whips one with plenty of bottom hand from outside off stump, and somehow gets four through mid-on.
It's time for a drink.

Layeggbeforewicket: I don't understand India's approach. Suppose another wicket falls, then are Pant/Rahane followed by Jadeja and Ashwin going to draw this? India need to get to 120-run lead without losing another wicket.

Rahane 5, Pant 7
India will want to see the back of Jamieson here. He keeps prodding away with his immaculate line and length for another maiden.

BBC Sport at the Hampshire BowlJust a reminder that we have 98 overs in the day today. We can play until 18:30 BST. The final hour will begin at 17:30 which is the point, theoretically, the captains could call it a day - if New Zealand haven't won by then, that is!

Ind 85-4published at 41 overs
Southee has to forget that and focus on his bowling.
Pant plays a very strange shot, charging down the pitch and then goes for a defensive prod that he completely misses.
Rahane seems to give him a bit of a telling off there and Pant retreats back to his crease like a naughty schoolboy.

Pant dropped on 5published at 40 overs
Ind 82-4
The crowd roars as Rahane gets off the mark with a push for two through the covers.
Jamieson then beats Pant for pace, finds the outside edge and Tim Southee has dropped a relatively simple chance at slip. How costly could that be?

BBC Sport at the Hampshire BowlThis game is properly on.
Ind 77-4published at 39 overs
Pant takes a risk immediately with a wristy dash outside the off stump that he manages to get away for four down to third man.
It's gone from a pretty tame start to everything happening at once. Can we go back to the dot balls for a minute just so I can catch my breath please, New Zealand?

Former New Zealand captain on BBC Test Match SpecialI have been working out the numbers in my hotel room, trying to work out how this game can see a result - I didn't anticipate New Zealand actually bowling India out!
Ind 73-4published at 38 overs
Rahane 0, Pant 1
Rishabh Pant is at the crease and this could go one way or the other. He certainly can change a game very quickly and he takes a quick single from his second ball, just making his ground with a tumbling dive.
New Zealand well on top.

Pujara c Taylor b Jamieson 15
And another one!
That is huge, and it's that man Kyle Jamieson again. Pujara just looking to play and then changed his mind to try and leave, he just got a bottom edge to Ross Taylor at slip.
The crowd is silenced.

BBC Test Match SpecialYou can sense the tension in the crowd. India are under pressure here.
Ind 72-3published at 37 overs
New Zealand are fired up now, darting about in the field, whereas the crowd has gone quiet.
Pujara takes just a single from Southee's over. You sense this is a very significant partnership for India now.
