India suffered the ignominy of a follow-on on the third day of the second Test against New Zealand on Saturday.

Resuming at their overnight score of 79 for three, the unbeaten batsmen Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar worked their way to starts but got out in disappointing fashion. Tendulkar's prod outside off-stump provided New Zealand a chance at slip and gave them their first success of the day. Rahul Dravid batted well for his 83 but played an adventurous shot to be caught behind by Brendon McCullum off Jesse Ryder, whose double century hurt India deep on Friday.
