NZ 302-7 (78 ovs) vs India 46 | Scorecard

Jadeja to bowl his ninth over in a row. The runs are coming fairly easily now with Southee also looking much more comfortable.

The duo easily collect four runs from Jadeja's 19th over, including a leg bye.

New Zealand's lead is past 240 runs -- the largest lead India have conceded in a Test since 2012, when they conceded 207-run lead against England in Kolkata.

This is sensible batting from the Kiwis. A single each to Ravindra and Southee before the former sweeps Ashwin fine for two runs.

Ashwin struggling as he drops it halfway down and Ravindra again quick to rock back and pull the short ball with the whip for a four.

He takes a single before Southee uses his feet to loft the off-spinner straight down the ground for a six as New Zealand go past the 300-run mark.

15 runs from the over as Ashwin continues to leak runs, with figures of 1/74 in 15 overs.
