India vs New Zealand WTC Final Highlights: New Zealand 101/2 at stumps on Day 3, trail India by 116 runs

Ashwin start his post Tea session with a maiden. Ishant Sharma to continue from the other end.

FOUR!!! Tom Latham collects his first boundary in the post Tea session. Ishant Sharma bowls from around the wicket and the ball just nips away after pitching. Thick outside edge and the ball goes right between the third slip and gully fielder. NZ 43/0

Devon Conway (18*) and Tom Latham (17*) are all set for the final session on Day 3. India still looking for their first breakthrough. Ishant Sharma to start the proceedings for India post Tea. NZ 36/0 after 21 overs, trail by 181 runs

Openers Tom Latham (17*) and Devon Conway (18*) looked absolutely cautious against a sharp India pace attack in overcast conditions as they steadily took New Zealand to 36/0 at Tea on Day 3 of The WTC Final. This was after the Kiwi pacers quickly wrapped up India's tail soon after lunch, restricting them to 217 in the first innings. Kyle Jamieson turned out to be the wrecker-in-chief as he led the Kiwi attack with his fifth five-wicket haul in Tests. Resuming on 211 for 7 after Lunch, India could only muster 6 more runs and lost the remaining three wickets against a disciplined attack. Jamieson first removed Ishant Sharma (2) and then on the very next ball got rid of Jasprit Bumrah (0), putting rest to any hopes of resilience from the lower order. Trent Boult then wrapped up the India innings with Ravindra Jadeja (15) wicket. Latham and Conway, then took no chance and looked solid in their defence as the Kiwis managed to end the session with any loss of wicket. New Zealand still trail India by 181 runs.

Jasprit Bumrah completes the final over before the Tea break. The session goes to New Zealand, hands down. First, they wrapped up the Indian tail and then openers Tom Latham and Devon Conway ensured that their team did not lose any wicket in the second session. A solid opening stand from the the two New Zealand openers. Virat Kohli tried four different bowlers in the session but could not get the much-needed breakthrough. NZ 36/0 after 21 overs.

Another terrific delivery from Mohammed Shami. The ball skids and rises sharply after pitching, surprising Tom Latham. It hits the glove of Latham and balloons over Ajinkya Rahane at gully. Latham gets a lifeline!!!

R Ashwin starts off with a couple of maidens and Mohammed Shami has been bowling with him superbly at the other end but India still searching for it's opening breakthrough. Both New Zealand openers Tom Latham and Devon Conway have looked absolutely solid in their defence so far. Not worrying about the runs at all at the moment. NZ 24/0 after 17 overs.

A probing over from Mohammed Shami. Just two runs came off it. India skipper Virat Kohli has now decided to bring R Ashwin into the attack. For the first time in this WTC Final, spinner is in action. Can Ashwin get India the much-needed breakthrough? NZ 22/0 after 14 overs.

A sharp, rising delivery from Mohammed Shami and it caught Devon Conway by surprise. Thick outside edge and the ball balloons over the slip cordon and just lands safely. Shami has a smile on his face. Conway gets a lifeline!!! NZ 20/0 after 13.1 overs

Tom Latham and Devon Conway are back on the field again as play resumes. Looked like a passing shower. A 5-minute quick break as action resumes in Southampton. Ishant Sharma is back on his mark. NZ 19/0 after 10.1 overs

And just after one ball from Ishant Sharma, umpires have decided to halt the play. It just got a bit heavier and umpires have called for the break. Tom Latham and Devon Conway have made their way back to the pavilion but the Indian fielders are still around.

A cracking first over from Mohammed Shami. Beats Tom Latham on a couple of occasions. It has started to drizzle in Southampton. The fans have their umbrellas out. Not sure how long umpires will continue with play. NZ 19/0 after 10 overs

Mohammed Shami comes into the attack for the first time in this Test. He replaces Jasprit Bumrah. NZ 17/0 after 9 overs.

FOUR!!! What a lovely cover-drive from Devon Conway. Presses hit front foot forward and gets to the pitch of the ball from Jasprit Bumrah. Times the ball to perfection. NZ 16/0 after 7.3 overs.

A probing start from the India seamers. After starting from over-the-wicket, both Ishant Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah have changed their line, firing in from around-the-wicket and have looked much more threatening. Forcing the batsmen to play at the ball and then taking it away, beating the batsmen on a coupe of occasions. New Zealand openers Tom Latham and Devon Conway have looked pretty cautious so far. NZ 11/0 after 5 overs.

FOUR!!! Streaky from Devon Conway but the ball went into the gap. Pokes at an away-swinger from Ishant Sharma and gets a thick outside edge. The ball is in the gap and races to the vacant third-man fence.

FOUR!! A cracking cover drive from Tom Latham. Slightly over-pitched from Jasprit Bumrah and Latham leans into it. Middles and the ball races to the fence. NZ 7/0 after 3.5 overs.

Jasprit Bumrah too starts off with a decent first over. Just one run from it. NZ 2/0 after 2 overs.

Tom Latham collects an easy single off the last ball from Ishant Sharma over to get off the mark. Latham will retain the strike. Jasprit Bumrah will share the new ball with Ishant from the other end. NZ 1/0 after 1 over.

Tom Latham and Devon Conway are in the middle to start the New Zealand innings. Ishant Sharma has the new cherry in hand for India. Three slips in place for him. Here we go!!!
