Bangalore: Indian team was cruising after the lunch interval with both Pujara and Tendulkar hitting some crispy shots, but the rain interrupted the play as the players walked out off the ground with India needing another 114 runs to win the series 2-0.

Pujara is luck to be on the crease as Brendon McCullum missed an easy stumping chance of the bowling of Jeetan Patel.

Sachin and Pujara were involved in an unbeaten stand of 64 runs before rain came.
