After New Zealand had limited India to 263 in their first innings, holding a narrow 28-run lead despite contrasting half-centuries from Shubman Gill (90) and Rishabh Pant (60), the hosts made a strong comeback with the help of Ashwin and Jadeja.

However, New Zealand bowlers kept striking at regular intervals, and India collapsed from 180/4 before lunch to 263 all out in 59.4 overs, securing just a 28-run lead. Washington Sundar contributed an unbeaten 38 off 36 balls, but India’s innings, which looked promising, crumbled as they lost six wickets for 83 runs.
