India vs New Zealand 3rd Test Day 2 Highlights: NZ 171/9 at Stumps, lead by 143 runs; Jadeja takes four wickets

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: So India's last wicket pair is also their new ball pair. Washington Sundar comes in from the other end, his spell turned it around for India in the first session yesterday. Can he make early inroads today? Conway is facing him, he is on one off one, Will Young at the other end, he has faced a delivery for no runs.

New Zealand 2/1, trail by 26

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: That is some delivery from Akash Deep. India had appealed for LBW successfully off the previous ball, but Latham reviewed that straightaway, even before the umpire finished putting down his finger. As it turns out, he had got an inside edge to it. Deep keeps it full, gets to nip the next ball back in with Latham playing for the movement away. The ball hits the stumps unimpeded and Akash Deep roars, as does the crowd at the Wankhede Stadium.

Latham b Akash Deep 1 (4)

New Zealand 2/1 in 0.5 overs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Right, Devon Conway and Tom Latham are out there, the latter taking strike as usual. Akash Deep to bowl the first over with the new ball this time, not Mohammed Siraj, which was the case in the first innings. Virat Kohli had a lot to say during the team huddle before India broke out on to the field and we can hear him chirp away now.

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Wow, Akash Deep has been run out mainly because he was too slow to turn back when Washington refused the second run. Sums up much of India's innings really, especially wickets that fell before the second session. Washington was farming strike quite beautifully, sent the fourth ball from that over of Ajaz to deep third and sets off for a run. Akash Deep turns around after reaching the striker's end but is sent back by Sundar. Akash Deep takes his time turning around and trying to make his mark. In this time, Rachin Ravindra picks up the ball and throws it to Blundell who takes the bails off.

India have thus been dismissed for 263, Washington stranded on 38 off 36. New Zealand start their second innings trailing by 28 runs.

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Very good cricket in that 59th over there from Washington Sundar. Ish Sodhi brought back for it, Sundar refusing the single for the first three balls. Then Sodhi drops it shorter and it turns away from outside off, Washington rocks back to send it through the offside for a four. Then he pulls the next ball over wide long-on for a six. Washington then manages to shuffle across and sweep the last ball to fine leg for a single, keeps strike. He has moved to 33 off 32, Akash Deep won't face a delivery yet.

India 258/9 in 59 overs, lead by 23 runs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: It spits and spins and breaths fire on Ashwin and Daryl Mitchell takes the catch. India down to their last wicket. It was full and dipped on Ashwin, then bounced and turned to take the shoulder of the bat. There really is nothing Ashwin could've done about that.

Ashwin c Mitchell b Patel 6 (13)

India 247/9 in 58 overs, trail by 12 runs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Three runs off the first three balls of that over from Ajaz Patel. Ashwin has a very uneasy stay for the next three balls before sweeping the last ball over midwicket for a four.

India 239/8 in 56 overs, India lead by 4 runs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Phillips with a half-volley first ball of the 55th to Sundar and the batter goes inside out over covers for a four, it was nearly a six. Tries a couple of cut shots which don't come off and then he takes a single to stay on strike off the last ball. This is India's last batting pair and the pitch is looking quite treacherous now. Hitting out seems to be pretty much the only sensible option. India trail by just 3 runs now.

India 232/8 in 55 overs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Ajaz Patel gets his fourth wicket and it is the big one. Shubman Gill falls on 90. Just the perfect speed and drift from Ajaz, it is flighted on off, takes the outside edge but it looks like Gill hasn't brought his bat down in time. Edge and Daryl Mitchell takes the catch at slip.

Gill c Mitchell b Ajaz 90 (146)

India 227/8 in 53.2 overs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Washington reverse sweeps the very first ball he faces very effectively past slip for a four. He gets off strike third ball and then Ajaz gets the fourth ball to turn sharply past Gill's defence to the wicketkeeper. Gill keeps out the next delivery off the backfoot and then Ajaz errs on the batter's pads. Gill accepts the gift with glee, glancing it fine for four. Gill moves to 87 off 134 balls, Sundar on five off three.

India 221/7 in 50 overs, trail by 14 runs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Gill skips down the track to Phillips second ball of the 49th to convert the good length ball into a half volley and lofts it over mid-off for a four. He doesn't want to allow these NZ spinners to settle on that good length with the ball turning the way it is at the moment. He reverse sweeped the fourth ball into the ground to Mitchell at first slip. Then a half-volley to end the over from Phillips, Gill breaks his wrists and sends it past long-off for another four. So far so good from Gill, he is on 83 off 131, Washington Sundar is the brand new batter at the other end and he will now face Ajaz Patel, who is spitting fire at the moment.

India 212/7 in 49 overs, trail by 23 runs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Once again for New Zealand, one brings two. Ajaz Patel has been brilliant in this session and it is going to be very hard indeed for India to negotiate him. Sarfaraz didn't do much wrong, just too good a delivery for him to face so early in his innings. It spins and bounces away from good length, Sarfaraz nowhere near the pitch of the ball. Edge and the wicketkeeper.

Sarfaraz c Blundell b Ajaz 0 (4)

India 204/7 in 48 overs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Phillips draws Jadeja forward and the latter pokes at it defensively. He couldn't get to the pitch of the ball and it spins, takes his outside edge and Daryl Mitchell takes a very good catch at first slip. Misfields had started creeping in for NZ due to the heat but Mitchell as sharp as ever.

Cheers around the ground now as local hero Sarfaraz Khan walks out.

Jadeja c Mitchell b Phillips 14 (25)

India 203/6 in 46.5 overs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Shubman Gill didn't know much about anything in that over. The first ball is defended back to the bowler, then Gill drawn forward but there is extra bounce on that, it takes his glove but grazes off his back shoulder as well which stops it from being a catching opportunity for Blundell. The third ball also turns past Gill's defence and the fourth takes a leading edge to the empty silly point area. The fifth ball doesn't turn, Gill plays for it and a half-hearted LBW appeal comes. Then the ball hits the top half of Gill's bat to keep him in the crease.

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Shubman Gill takes strike, 70 off 106 balls while Ravindra Jadeja is at the other end on 10 off 18. Ajaz Patel to bowl the 44th over of this innings to start out the second session. The sun and the heat really beating down now on the Wankhede Stadium.

India 195/5 in 43 overs, trail by 40 runs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Shubman Gill and Ravindra Jadeja would want to bat out as much of the second session as possible, if not the whole thing, but they would also know that it is going to be a gruelling experience.

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: India came into the day on the backfoot, having lost three wickets to some bafflingly poor cricket towards the end of the first day. What better way to turn that tide than to hit some lusty shots and who better to do it than Rishabh Pant.

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Spider cam hanging low around the mid-on area and that little malfunction has come with just minutes to go for Lunch. It also came right after someone was hovering near the sight screen and Jadeja needed that person to move. Finally, the umpires take off the bails as the spider-cam hangs on helplessly in its own web. Just when the players trudge off though, the spider-cam moves but the deed has been done. Early Lunch called. India dominated the first hour but New Zealand fought back strongly after drinks. The hosts have decided to send out Jadeja ahead of Sarfaraz, who would've been raring to go having shown how good he is on this ground a number of times in domestic cricket. The home side's tactics continue to raise eyebrows. But all in all, it's been a good morning session for them. Shubman Gill is on 70 off 106, Ravindra Jadeja on 10 off 18.

India 195/5 in 43 overs, trail by 40 runs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Ajaz returned for the 42nd over, replacing Sodhi but the chokehold continues from New Zealand. The run rate has dropped to 3.20 in the last 10 overs. There is just under 10 minutes to go for Lunch though and so it looks like India are just waiting to get back into the hut. Not a bad strategy that. Gill is on 70 off 106 balls, Jadeja on 10 off 18 balls.

India 195/5 in 43 overs, trail by 40 runs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Sarfaraz Khan has scored 601 runs on this ground in six innings at an average of a whopping 150.3 in his first class career. It is Mumbai's home ground, after all, and he has been Mumbai's run machine. Surely, surely he would be seething sitting in the dressing room with his pads on, regardless of whether India wanted to maintain a left-right combination. Jadeja has looked fairly solid though, scoring six in 12 balls, Gill is on 69 off 100 balls.

India 190/5 in 41 overs, trail by 45 runs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: It is Ish Sodhi who gets him. Umpire Darren Gough raises his fingers as the Kiwis appeal for LBW. Pant has a long chat with Gill and then takes the review. This ball has been sent in full and then spins in sharply. It misses the inside edge and hits the pads. It is umpire's call on wickets. Gough never gets 'em wrong. A brilliant innings comes to an end.

And how about it, Ravindra Jadeja has been promoted ahead of Sarfaraz Khan.

Pant lbw b Sodhi 60 (59)

India 180/5 in 37.3 overs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Pant has scored just five runs in the 20 balls he has faced since scoring his half-century. He is starting to get fidgety and New Zealand had the perfect chance to get him with that catch, which makes it even worse for Henry. Ish Sodhi has been a huge reason for Pant slowing down and he continues in the 38th over. Can he make a dent here? Gill on 64 off 90, Pant on 56 off 57.

India 175/4 in 37 overs, trail by 60 runs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Pant and Gill may just both go and score double hundreds if this is how lucky they are going to be throughout the day. Glenn Phillips could've got both Gill and Pant out today and India would've been staring into the abyss at this point. Pant ran two off the second ball of that 35th over, then he steps down the track and tries to go over long-on. Matt Henry is the man standing there, the ball is going straight to him and he spills it. New Zealand have already dropped more catches today than they did in the whole series it seems. Pant on 54 off as many at the end of that over, Gill on 60 off 81.

India 169/4 in 35 overs, trail by 66 runs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: Rishabh Pant on 50 off 48, Shubman Gill on 58 off 75. How expensive is that drop from Chapman going to be for them. It has been quite expensive thus far already, Gill has looked absolutely serene today outside of that shot. Mark Chapman has got his bib back on and he has ran out to the field again with the drinks. Spare a penny for his thoughts, he hasn't seen too much action in this series and now he has this on his conscience.

The partnership has reached 79 in 87 balls. Pant has quietened down since crossing his fifty but that doesn't seem to have bothered him at all. Ish Sodhi has been the main reason behind that slow-down and he continues after drink.

India 163/4, trail by 72 runs

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score 3rd Test Day 2: India have gone at a run rate of 5.85 in the first 13 overs of the day. Just three runs off the 32nd and 33rd overs though. Sodhi especially has been difficult to score against thus far. Extremely low bounce second ball of the 32nd over, Gill was shaping up for a pull, he somehow gets low and prods the ball away. Gill gets a half-volley fourth ball, takes a single with it and then Sodhi beats Pant in the air. Pant on 50 off 43 balls at the end of the over, Gill on 57 off 74.

India 162/4 in 32 overs
