Santner kept hitting the rough with cunning pace variations and came away with 7 for 53, which included the wicket of Kohli with a full-toss

Santner’s seven-for handed New Zealand a handy 103-run lead in the first innings on a low, slow surface, which the Kiwis stretched to 301 by the end of play. The left-arm spinner's outstanding spell included Kohli's scalp as India collapsed to 156in the first innings.

Having spun the second Test and, perhaps, the series in New Zealand's favour with his career-best 7/53, Mitchell Santner admitted it was ‘shocking' to clean up Virat Kohli on a full toss in Pune on Friday.
