India 247-9 (58 ovs) vs NZ 235 | Scorecard

The two spinners taking calculated risks to build India's lead. Sundar lofts the flighted delivery from Phillips straight down the ground for a six.

The left-hander clips the spinner wide of long-on for one as he wants to push for the second but Ashwin is not interested.

Ajaz has a confident shout for leg before wicket turned down against Sundar. The ball turned in sharply into Sundar, who was beaten on the inside edge and hit on the pads.

The ball is turning sharply to miss the leg stump as umpire Michael Gough's decision stands vindicated.

The next ball hold its line as Sundar is beaten on the outside edge this time.

He can't get hold of the slog sweep as he wafts across the line only for a single to deep midwicket.

Turn and bounce for Ajaz to beat Ashwin outside the off-stump before he falls off the next ball.

This time the line is closer to the stumps as Ashwin looks to block but it hit on the gloves as Mitchell bags another catch in the slips.

Ajaz picks up a five-wicket haul, his sixth in Test cricket with all of them coming in Asia.

Ajaz continues his love affair with Wankhede, picking up his 19th wicket in his third innings. He had taken 14 wickets, including all 10 wickets in an innings, against India in 2021.
