India had New Zealand on the mat at a precarious 60 for six but allowed the hosts to stage a remarkable recovery through fighting centuries by skipper Daniel Vettori and Jesse Ryder in the first Test on Wednesday.
Put into bat, the Kiwis suffered a dramatic top-order collapse in the first session before Vettori (118) and Ryder (102) steadied the ship with a defiant 186-run stand to take the Kiwis to a healthy 279 all out on the opening day.
Kiwi skipper Vettori led from front, notching up his third Test century, while Ryder curbed his natural stroke-play to struck his maiden Test hundred on an eventful day the Seddon Park stadium.

India are bolstered by a strong batting line-up. Virender Sehwag slaughtered the New Zealand attack in the One-dayers, Sachin Tendulkar has overcome the stomach strain that restricted his ODI appearances, and the injection of fellow legends Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman, gives the Indian side an ominous look.
The pressure is on New Zealand bowlers to perform and they will be looking for the pace in the wicket they enjoyed in Auckland on Saturday when they had their sole One-day success.
The New Zealand Test squad includes two newcomers, bowler Brent Arnel and One-day top order specialist Martin Guptill, while James Franklin and Chris Martin have been recalled.
Of the seven Test series between New Zealand and India played in New Zealand, India won the first in 1969 while New Zealand have since won four and two have been drawn.
Although the green tinge on the Seddon Park wicket will give the bowlers hope on the opening session the pitch should favour the batsmen for the remainder of the five days.

The Indians have already taken an invincible 3-0 lead in the five match series and will be keen to try out their reserve players for the inconsequential game at the Eden Park.
Sachin Tendulkar, who sat out of the last game because of an abdomen injury, is likely to be rested for the match so that he is fully fit for the Test series beginning March 18.
While things have gone favourably for the Indians, the Kiwis have only pride to play for as they desperately need to salvage a win to convince the home fans of their limited-overs potential, especially after recording six consecutive series wins at home

An injured Sachin Tendulkar will be missed as India go into the fourth One-dayer against New Zealand on Wednesday, confident of being able to wrap up the series by taking an invincible 3-0 lead.
Tendulkar, who has been in superb form, has been ruled out of the match due an abdomen injury but the visitors have the batting might to still get past the Kiwis who have no option but to win the match to stay afloat in the series.
The MRI scan done on India’s premier batsman has revealed internal bleeding in his stomach.
“I had stiffness in the region before the third ODI, but I had stretched myself too far. But I should be ready to play in a couple of days time,” Tendulkar said
