India declare at 557/5 against New Zeala

Indore : India declared their first innings on 557 for five in the evening session of the second day's play of the third and final Test against New Zealand in Indore on Sunday.

The hosts, who started the day on 267 for three, rode on the 365-run fourth-wicket partnership between skipper Virat Kohli (211) and Ajinkya Rahane (188) to flatten the New Zealand bowling.

India, who took an unassaialable 2-0 lead in the three-match series, are looking to complete a whitewash against the tourists.
