India bowled out for 46 in the first inning of their first test with New Zealand.

Summary: India was all out for the lowest score of 48 in their first test against New Zealand.

In the first innings of their first Test match against New Zealand in Bengaluru, where their opponents scored 180-3 at stumps, India collapsed to 46 all out, their lowest total ever in a home Test match.

After India's captain, Rohit Sharma, chose to bat first, the hosts found it difficult to keep up with the movement and pace of New Zealand's fast bowlers in the cloudy situations at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium.

Virat Kohli was one of five Indian batters to be dismissed for a duck as the team slumped from 31-3 to 46 all out after senior New Zealand fast bowler Tim Southee clean bowled India skipper Rohit Sharma for two.

However, India quickly fell to 34-7 when KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, and Ravichandran Ashwin all went for ducks after Jaiswal scored 13. 

This was the 18th lowest score by a Test nation and the third-lowest score by India in an innings.

The only two batters to score more than four runs, Rishabh Pant (20) and Yashasvi Jaiswal (13) tried to steady the ship with a stand of 21 after Rohit, Kohli, and Sarfaraz Khan returned to the pavilion with just 10 runs on the board, the latter two going for ducks.

Rain wiped out the opening day of the Test, and skies loomed over the stadium when India's openers Rohit and Yashasvi Jaiswal headed out to bat.

The remaining nine Indian wickets went to fast bowlers Matt Henry and William O'Rourke, with Henry taking 5-15 in 13.2 overs.

In his 12 overs, O'Rourke, who claimed the last Indian wicket, concluded the innings with figures of 4-22, including six maidens.
