*****INDIA Vs NEW ZEALAND CRICKET SERIES 2016 - NZ TOUR OF INDIA*****

[Kool_SRG]

30.3

Santner to Ashwin, OUT, gone! That looked out as soon as Santner turned around to appeal. Pitches around off stump, straightens just a bit, but doesn't turn as much as Ashwin expects while coming forward to defend and his pad comes in the way of his bat. Ball hits pad before bat, in line with middle stump

R Ashwin lbw b Santner 5 (23b 0x4 0x6) SR: 21.73

Oh Rohit misses out on a Well deserved Hundred Superb Innings in the situation gets out for 82

60.2

Santner to Sharma, OUT, got him, no century yet in this series. Flat length ball outside off, spins away pretty sharply, and Rohit isn't forward or back while defending. Gets a thin outside edge to Ronchi

RG Sharma c Ronchi b Santner 82 (132b 9x4 2x6) SR: 62.12

60.6

Santner to Jadeja, OUT, goes for another big slog, and this time he doesn't get hold of it. Santner slowed it down, it pitched shorter than Jadeja would have liked, and turned and bounced and he ended up slicing underneath the ball and skying it to Neesham, the substitute fielder at square leg

RA Jadeja c sub (JDS Neesham) b Santner 6 (4b 0x4 1x6) SR: 150.00

60.5

Santner to Jadeja, no run, back of a length, turning in sharply. Wants to cut, but is cramped, and ends up chopping a short distance into the off side

60.4

Santner to Jadeja, SIX, takes on the deep fielders, a bit of flight, and he trusts himself to hit with the turn and clear the rope, and he does it easily, launches it over deep midwicket's head

60.3

Santner to Jadeja, no run, tossed up, turns towards off, defended to short cover

73.4

Wagner to Kumar, OUT, finally, a wicket. Short ball at the body, and for once Bhuvneshwar doesn't get on top of the bounce. Looks to turn it into the leg side, and pops up a simple catch a couple of feet to the right of short leg

B Kumar c Nicholls b Wagner 23 (51b 2x4 1x6) SR: 45.09

[Kool_SRG]

76.5

Boult to Mohammed Shami, OUT, Tom Latham falls to his left, scoops up a low-flying ball, and comes up claiming a catch at third gully (New Zealand have no slips, only gullies), and Rod Tucker soft-signals out and goes to the third umpire. Stays back to a length ball, Shami, and plays down the wrong line. The angle takes his outside edge. Replays, as always, are a little fuzzy, some of them suggesting his fingers are under the ball, some suggesting he may have grounded it. Will CK Nandan, the third umpire, go with the soft signal? He does, and India are finally bowled out

Mohammed Shami c Latham b Boult 1 (7b 0x4 0x6) SR: 14.28

16.5

Ashwin to Guptill, OUT, gone! Again that dip, again it turns in from outside off, but this time it pitched fuller, and hit his front pad juust about in line with off stump when he came forward to defend. Umpire Kettleborough thought about it for a couple of seconds and then raised his finger. Guptill's front leg was just about a foot outside the crease. His back leg was a long way inside the crease. Strange position to defend from

MJ Guptill lbw b Ashwin 24 (49b 3x4 0x6) SR: 48.97

[Kool_SRG]

35.5

Jadeja to Nicholls, OUT, change of angle does the trick! Good length, pitching just outside off and going on with the angle across the batsman. Nicholls isn't fully forward, can't cover the lack of turn, and gets an outside edge that flies to Rahane at slip. Excellent delivery

HM Nicholls c Rahane b Jadeja 24 (66b 2x4 0x6) SR: 36.36
