Ravichandran Ashwin claimed 6-132 to complete his 10-wicket match haul and prove why he is considered India's premier spinner.

India celebrated their 500th Test in style when they overcame New Zealand's final dogged resistance to win the series opener by 197 runs and go 1-0 up in the three-match series at the Green Park stadium, in Kanpur, on Monday.
