    6.3 and he's gone, attempting one big shot too many, he falls. Spoons a simple catch to mid-off. Unfortunate shot from the batsman 34/3
    1.5 that ball came back into the batsman, who was on his heels and shouldering arms, and took the top of off stump. Useful breakthrough for New Zealand 1/1
    3.3 stunning catch by the point fielder Guptill. That was a short ball, the batsman stroked it well on the off side and was would have expected it to get past point on the way to the boundary. It was not to be. India in trouble. 18/2
