Debutant Shreyas Iyer followed his first-innings hundred with a crucial 65 to help India stretch their overall lead to 216 runs against New Zealand in the opening test in Kanpur on Sunday.

India lost four wickets in the morning session on day four to slump to 51-5 but Iyer came to their rescue again before falling to Tim Southee on the stroke of tea with India on 167-7.

Earlier, Southee struck twice in three balls in the morning session as New Zealand blew away India's top order after India had resumed on 14-1. Left-arm spinner Ajaz Patel further pegged back India when he trapped home captain Ajinkya Rahane leg before wicket for four with an arm-ball that kept low.
