NZ vs Ind: Here is what happened on Day 1

New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson won the toss and asked his bowlers to have a go at the Indian batsmen first up on a green top on an overcast day. Opener Prithvi Shaw gave a decent start before he was clean bowled by Tim Southee for 16 runs. Jamieson, who came into bowl as the team's first change bowler, struck midway through his third over with a gem of a delivery to remove Cheteshwar Pujara for 11 runs. The delivery straightened off the seam to take the edge of Pujara's bat and into the gloves of wicketkeeper BJ Watling.
