"Virat Kohli's Wicket Was Huge": New Zealand Star Blunt Verdict

Top-order batter Rachin Ravindra was relieved after New Zealand managed to bag the big wicket of Virat Kohli off the final ball of the third day, and hoped the bowlers will keep piling pressure on India on Saturday.

But the former Indian skipper fell to Glenn Phillips, edging him to stumper Tom Blundell to bring some respite to the visitors.

The Indian team hit rock bottom in Bengaluru's overcast conditions on Day 2 of the opening Test against New Zealand on Thursday.
