As soon as the ball hit the pad, it looked close and all the Indian fielders appealed with their heart out. It looked close to the nakes eye and Rohit Sharma had to go for the review with a small total to defend.

It turned out to be a good one in the end. Indian fielders, including Virat Kohli looked at the umpire. The camera also panned out at the umpire Michael Gough.

It was a crucial breakthrough for India who were desperate for a wicket at that point. The score was 35-2 as Conway was dismissed for 17 off 39 balls. It was the second wicket of the session for Jasprit Bumrah, who bowled a long spell in the morning session of Day 5.

Jasprit Bumrah on fire on Day 5

Earlier in the day, Bumrah had dismissed New Zealand captian Tom Latham in the second ball of the day to give India a dream start. It was an unplayable inswinger from over the wicket to Latham, who was dismissed for a six-ball duck.

Despite losing two wickets early, New Zealand were well ahead in the game in their pursuit of chasing a target of 107 runs. India fought hard after being bundled out for just 46 in the first innings.

It turned out to be the difference in the match for India as New Zealand posted 402 in their first innings, thanks to a magnificent hundred from Rachin Ravindra and half-centuries from Devon Conway and Tim Southee.

India's excellent comeback in second innings

India made a superb comeback in their second innings through an excellent innings from Sarfaraz Khan and Rishabh Pant. Sarfaraz scored 150 off 195 balls while Pant was dismissed one run short of a well deserved hundred.

However, India suffered a batting collapse as their lower order failed to stay at the crease for a long time. The Men in Blue were finally dismissed for 462 runs leaving New Zealand with a target of 107 runs to win.
