3.44pm: It looks like India will be batting again. So follow-on not enforced.

Sid has a chuckle (but it's Ajaz's day, so who knows): "Sad ajaz ran out of partners.otherwise who knows"

This is the lowest total by any team against India in Tests. It is also the lowest total by any team in India.

3.40pm: New Zealand have been overwhelmed by a relentlessly devastating Indian bowling attack. They're bowled out for 62 in just 28.1 overs. Mayank Agarwal alone has scored more than double of that. Ajaz Patel bowled nearly double those overs by himself. Two hours ago, New Zealand were celebrating history with Ajaz's 10 for 119. Now their first innings is done and they trail by a whopping 263 runs.

Patel to Jamieson, OUT, given out caughty by silly point off a rebound but he reviews. Magnificent work by the fielder in any case. Was coming down the track and looking to launch this over long-on, ball pitches and spins past the bat, and seemingly takes the edge. Spike on Ultra Edge confirms the edge. It bangs into Saha and goes to Shreyas Iyer's left, who dives full length and pulls it off

Ashwin to Somerville, OUT, Somerville's resistance ends. He couldn't rein himself in enough to not go for that shot. Looks to swat across the line but the ball is on a good length and it's turning in too, can't get hold of it at all and it just plops to mid-on for the simplest of catches

Sandeep: "This is a shout out to Barrington Rowland. A former Karnataka player who played alongside Rahul David. Currently lives in NZ and was instrumental in Ajaz's development as a player. Also a mentor to former blackcap Jeet Raval. Great mentor to youngsters at Suburbs Newlynn and now Papatoetoe. Congratulations Barry!"
