Virender Sehwag smashed a blistering 173 while Rahul Dravid marked his return to form with a fluent century as India took firm control of the first cricket Test against a hapless New Zealand in Ahmedabad today.
Electing to bat, India rode on Sehwag's classy 22nd century and Dravid's 30th ton to pile up an imposing 329 for three at close on the opening day.
Sehwag and Dravid (104) put on a record 237-run partnership for the second wicket against New Zealand to lay the platform for a mammoth first innings total on a batting friendly track at the Sardar Patel Stadium. (PTI)
