SOUTHAMPTON:
The Indian team were bundled out for 217 in the first innings of the ongoing World Test Championship (WTC) final at Ageas Bowl on Sunday.
Kyle Jamieson took five wickets, Trent Boult and Neil Wagner took two each for New Zealand as the Indian team came crashing down to the tight bowling on the third day.
For India, Ajinkya Rahane was the top scorer with 49 runs, while Virat Kohli managed a decent score of 44.
Resuming the second session at 217/7, India lost three wickets in quick succession with Jamieson dismissing Ishant Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah for 4 and 0 respectively.
New Zealand had won the toss and opted to bowl first at the WTC final against India.
The Day 1 of the WTC final being played in Southampton was abandoned due to rain, and Day 2 also witnessed the final session being called off early due to bad light conditions.
New Zealand will look forward to taking the lead and capitalising on the low total that India has posted on the board.
