India vs New Zealand: The hosts scored 46 points in Bengaluru

Jaiswal and captain Rohit Sharma had moved to 9-0 in the seventh over when Rohit was bowled by Tim Southee while attempting a wild drive.

Kohli didn’t score in his nine balls before glove-slipping the 23-year-old O’Rourke, who was playing his fifth Test.

Sarfaraz was caught attempting a counter-attack midway through the game and after a brief rain delay and a 10-over partnership of just 21 runs with Pant, Jaiswal brought O’Rourke to the point.

Rahul was caught on the leg side by O’Rourke in the next over and an over later Jadeja took a catch off a front edge and Ashwin edged to the gully ahead of Henry in successive balls.

Henry’s next over brought back the wicket of Pant, who tucked an edge to second slip, and the seamer soon after produced a lovely sweeping catch to catch Jasprit Bumrah’s top edge at fine leg.

Henry then took his fourth Test five-wicket haul by catching Kuldeep Yadav at crease.

India’s total was the 18th lowest of any team in Tests.
