J.R. Reid again won the toss and again batted first at Delhi,1965.
Ross Morgan, following his 71 at Bombay, stepped out to the spin
and made a well-modulated 82 in New Zealand's lowly total of 262.
The off-spinner, Srinivas Venkataraghavan, was unplayable; 8-72.
To reply, D.N.Sardesai, the opener was soon making his second century,
while the Nawab of Pataudi played shots all around the scenic ground
to make his second consecutive hundred also in very fast tempo.
Eighties by Hanumant Singh & C.G.Borde further boosted India.
Looking at 465-8, one opener, G.T. Dowling, was out without scoring,
but his partner Terry Jarvis played the leg-spinners skilfully
to advance to 77 in 322 minutes; Sutcliffe & Collinge had fifties.
The spinners, S. Venkataraghavan, B.Chandrasekhar & V. Subramanya,
took all wickets.
On day four India scored 73-3 at 8 runs an over to win by 7 wickets,
proving that a 4-day test could be won by scoring runs quickly.
