Rain stops play in third Test

Wellington, Apr 7 (PTI) Rain stopped play in the post-lunch session on the fifth and final day of the third Test between India and New Zealand with the visitors needing just two wickets to seal a 2-0 series victory here today.

New Zealand were 281 for eight in their second innings when covers were brought in due to light rain with the hosts requiring another 336 runs in chase of an impossible victory target of 617.

Daniel Vettori was batting on 15 alongwith Iain O'Brien (19).
