Live Score »I The play has resumed after a delay of two hours. Good news. The covers are coming off, the rain has stopped but the conditions are overcast. After rain shortened the third day’s play, the beginning of the fourth day's play between India and New Zealand has also been delayed. The play was scheduled to begin at 9 am on Sunday, one hour ahead of the scheduled time but persistent raised caused a delay for the third day in a row.
