In the morning, Conway and captain Tom Latham hit five fours between themselves, before the latter was dismissed by Ashwin (R Ashwin LBW NZ Captain Tom Latham), who straightened a length ball after pitching at leg-stump and left. The hand batsman was given out LBW for 15 runs in 22 balls. Ashwin (Ashwin Takes Will Young Wicket) then got Young caught at leg and Sarfaraz Khan standing at short leg provoked captain Rohit Sharma to take review. Replays proved Sarfaraz's decision correct as a spike was detected on the ultra-edge before the ball left the gloves, which was caught by Rishabh Pant and Young was out on 18. Conway showed strength like a rock but returned to the pavilion after scoring 76 runs.
