Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant first revived the innings with solid contributions of 90 and 60 runs, respectively. However, it was Washington Sundar's quick-fire 38 off 36 balls that pushed India's lead past 25, despite the spirited effort from Ajaz Patel, who claimed his second five-wicket haul in the city of his birth.
The seasoned duo of R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja then teamed up to take seven wickets between them, thwarting New Zealand's attempts to set India a daunting target on a frustrating pitch.
Tim Southee and Ajaz Patel both hit a six, but Southee was ultimately bowled by an unplayable delivery from Ravindra Jadeja, which turned out to be the final ball of the day.
