Mayank Agarwal led India on the opening day with an unbeaten century.
Jayant Yadav strikes in his first over and NZ will go to TEA on 38/6, trailing India by 287.Superb session for India as they've rattled NZ with six wickets. The initial burst was set up by Mohammed Siraj who returned 3-14 in his first 3 overs. Thereafter the spinners took over as the visitors haven't had a good start to their innings. What can they do in the final session? Join us then.
Spin from both ends as Ashwin strikes first ball!Beats Nicholls and knocks over the stumps. NZ – 31/5.
OUT! And another!Axar gets his first wicket as Mitchell is trapped leg before. NZ are in trouble at 27/4.
Oh dear… the on-field call is not out! But it looks mighty close. India review… It's the hat-trick ball! Drama in Mumbai!Pitching outside leg and it's not out. No hat-trick then for Siraj.
Beautiful from Siraj as he knocks Ross Taylor over with a jaffa!It had just enough movement in it to knock the stumps over. He's picked up all the three wickets to fall so far. Siraj is on a hat-trick after having dismissed Latham off the last delivery of his previous over!!
Mitchell is given out leg-before against Umesh.New Zealand review. Looked a bit high on first view, and it is! It's too high and missing the stumps. Mitchell survives. Only just.
And another! This is brilliant from Siraj.It was the short ball that did Latham in after a rising delivery meant he couldn't keep his hook down. It went straight down Shreyas's throat at deep square leg. Kohli had two men in the deep and Latham finds one of them.
OUT! Siraj strikes early as Young edges to Kohli at slip!Big wicket as India pick up an early wicket. NZ – 10/1. It was a good catch at slip, mind you, lower to his right.
The NZ openers are in the middle.
AJAZ CREATES HISTORY! A brilliant achievement from the man from Mumbai, who left for New Zealand when he was 7. He returned 10-119. He is only the third bowler in Test cricket's history to bag all 10 wickets in an innings.That, after Jim Laker and Anil Kumble. He bowled tirelessly from one end and kept chipping in with wickets. Eventually, he was the sole provider of them as India folded for 325.

Ajaz has 9!Jayant Yadav holes out in the deep for 12.
NZ review! OUT! Superb review from NZ.It was a late call, but because of the no short offered, the impact outside didn't make a difference. Three reds and Axar falls for 52 as India lose their eighth and Ajaz gets his eighth!
Maiden Test fifty for Axar!
300 up for India
AND OUT! Ajaz has his man and his 7th wicket in the innings.Drift, bounce and turn and it's taken the outside edge off Mayank's bat. Mayank falls just after bringing up his 150. The 67-run stand is broken.
150 for Mayank! It's been a brilliant innings from him.
We're back after lunch

India were pegged back with two wickets in their second over of the morning when Ajaz Patel struck in successive deliveries to get Saha and Ashwin out. Thereafter, Axar and Mayank offered a rearguard in a 61-run stand to ensure India didn't lose any further wickets by the end of the session. Join us for live action in 40 minutes.
A slog sweep from Axar and it brings up the 50-run standbetween him and Mayank.
Mayank and Axar have kept New Zealand at bay with a good partnership that has revived India's innings after that double strike. Just an hour to go for the break now.
New Zealand take the new ball
No hat-trick for Patel, but it's been an excellent over
TWO IN TWO!Ajaz is on a hat-trick as he knocks Ashwin over next ball. Brilliant from Ajaz, who now has six wickets in the innings. He's picked all the Indian wickets to have fallen so far.
OUT! Ajaz has a 5-wickt haul!Patel strikes early on the second day as the ball hurries onto Saha, aided by a bit of dew in the morning. Saha is adjudged leg-before wicket and has to depart. The 64-run reviving stand is broken.
10 overs for the new ball. Southee will start for NZ. Here we go…
