IND vs NZ 1st Test: India dominating with 63-Run lead

The third day of the first test between India and New Zealand ended with the hosts having a 63 run lead. Batting second the Blackcaps scored 296 runs in their first innings and handed over the pitch to the home side for the second innings.

After failing to cross the Indian score of 345 runs, the visitors got an early break by removing Shubman Gill. Kyle Jaimeson had removed the Indian opener on his first ball of the day and gave his side a bit of momentum after a poor Day 3 with the bat.
