Story highlights

Pandya also made a significant contribution to India's impressive bowling effort which bowled New Zealand out for 243. 

Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya took a stunning two-handed catch to dismiss New Zealand's skipper Kane Williamson in the third One-Day International of a five-match series at Mount Maunganui, Bay Oval. 

Pandya seemed unfazed by the tribulations of the past few weeks when he jumped to the left of the mid-wicket to take the catch diving across.

Indian captain Virat Kohli recalled all-rounder Hardik Pandya saying, "It's good to have him back." 

Pandya was sent home when from Australia earlier this month following allegedly sexist remarks made on a television chat show. 

But he was rushed to New Zealand to rejoin the side after the suspension was lifted last Thursday. 

"He's someone who has provided a really good balance to the side. He can give you five or six overs and pick up wickets, and then his hitting power everyone knows," said Virat on Pandya's addition.
