After the openers departed, Cheteshwar Pujara was solid, seeing out the charging New Zealand bowlers to steer India safely to lunch but fell in the second session, failing to build on his start. (AP Photo)

The New Zealand bowlers gathered around the Indian batsmen like vultures for the better part of the second session, beating them every now and then but had to remain satisfied with just the scalp of Pujara. (AFP Photo)

Slowly and steadily, the pair of India captain Virat Kohli and Ajinkya Rahane saw off the tense phase surviving few edgy moments and eventually took the score past 200 runs and in the process completed their 100-run stand as well. (AFP Photo)

Kohli hit his 13th Test century - the first of the series by any batsman from either side - and along with Rahane's 79, helped India finish the day on a strong note at 267/3 (AFP Photo)
