That's all from our side for this Test. Hope you enjoyed our coverage. Karthik's report is up. Look out for Sid Monga's copies, which should be in, in some time. And stay safe. See you soon.

Shreyas Iyer is the Player of the Match: It's a great feeling but winning the game would have been icing on the game. The pitch was intact but our bowlers showed great fight. My mindset was to play the sessions and play as many balls as possible. People say I am a very flamboyant player but the situation required me to play longer. So I played for the time. I am really proud the way we came out from a difficult position. I am really happy with the overall performance of the team. The pressure is always there, they had a great start and played out the first two session really well but we bounced back.

Ajinkya Rahane: [on the timing of the declaration] Not really, we tried our best. They played really well. I think the way we came back in the second session was good. The fast bowlers too bowled really well. We wanted to get that partnership going, put some runs on board. Saha and Axar batted really well. Before that Shreyas and Ashwin's partnership was crucial. We wanted to bowl four overs yesterday and 90-95 in all. [on chat with the umpires towards the end] It was about the light. I think the umpires made the right call regarding light. [On having three spinners] Sometimes it feels, am I giving Ashwin too few overs? Am I bowling Axar too much? I am really happy for Shreyas, the way he has worked on his game. Virat will come back for the Mumbai Test. I will not make any comments, the management will take the call.

Kane Williamson: It has been touch and go around this time throughout this Test. The Indian side is a formidable one, they were on top for the large part but we hung around. All three results were in play but we fought hard and showed the fight on the last day. Rachin is a top-order batter, but is not experienced in these conditions. The two fast players we played were outstanding, kept bowling long overs and kept us in the game. We know this Indian side is a very strong one in all departments, so we have to be at our best all the time. As a bowling attack, getting overs under the belt was good. We will play in Mumbai on a different surface, so we need to prepare differently.

Time for the presentation ceremony.

S Rajesh: This breaks a sequence of 14 successive result Tests in India, the longest such streak. Between 1988 and 1994, there were 13 successive results in Tests in India. India were 12-1 in those Tests, with the only defeat coming against NZ in Mumbai, which was the last time they won a Test in India.

Het: "Hey ESPNCricInfo, 6 LBWs this innings, highest in test matches in a single innings?" -- The record is seven. You can check the full list here.

Arijit: "No disrespect to Rahul Dravid but I have a strong feeling that Rahul-Rahane combination is too defensive. Could've showed little more intent with the bat when Saha and Axar were batting. I believe both the batters played as per the instructions given."

Shailesh: "@Raja: Would you have said the same at lunch time? :)Indeed, hindsight is 20/20."

Raghu: "2 Indians batting have denied Team India the victory.. How often does this happen?" Afaq: "NZ has done a Sydney in Kanpur, can they do a Gabba in Mumbai?"

Raja: "Although, hindsight is easy, will Rahane rue his decision for not declaring earlier?"

R Ashwin: We were bowling in good areas, we knew we had time but light was always going to come into play in the last session. It happened every day of the match. Test cricket is not one of those formats where you come out and bowl good four overs. I am someone who wants to play this format. [on going past Harbhajan's tally] These are milestones that are constantly kept tab on. But as Rahul bhai says, it's not about runs or wickets, it's about how many memories you make. I think getting down to the last session, last mandatory over, Rachin hanging in there, Ajaz playing his part, a great day of Test cricket and I hope those who watched enjoyed it.

Phew! What a passage of play! Nothing short of a heist on New Zealand's part. Latham was superb at the top of the order. Somerville showed great application. Williamson and his soft hands then kept India at bay. Needing six wickets in the final session, India's spinners struck back but the lesser-talked debutant of the match, Rachin Ravindra, showed great composure towards the end - he faced 15.1 overs himself - to ensure New Zealand eked out a draw.

4.22pm Nitin Menon is having a chat with the batters. And now the Indian fielders are talking to Menon. Think Menon has told them the light isn't good enough to continue. Looks like they have called it off. The New Zealand batters have already walked back. Yes, looks like that's it. Kane Williamson is walking out, a shake of hands between him and Rahane. So after engrossing five days, the series stands at 0-0.

Bhargav: "Rachin deserves a lot of credit for surviving nearly 16 overs"
