New Zealand v India, 2nd Test, Napier, 1st day


New Zealand 351 for 4 (Taylor 151, Ryder 137*) v India

  • Ross Taylor wasn't at his best at McLean Park but, on a day when almost everything went his way, he didn't need to be.
  • He flashed and edged but luck was on his side and he was dropped twice.
  • He battled his way to a third Test century to give New Zealand some much-needed innings
  • Riding shotgun at first before stepping into the driver's seat was Jesse Ryder, with his second century of the series, and New Zealand finished what had started as a disastrous day in a dominant position.
