WELLINGTON (Reuters) - New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum stubbornly provided a glimmer of hope for his side on the third day of the second test against India as he battled to his ninth test century to thwart the visitors' push for a series-levelling victory on Sunday.

McCullum, troubled with what appeared to be injuries to his left shoulder and right elbow, blasted the only six of his innings over long on off Ishant Sharma to bring up the milestone about 45 minutes before the end of play.
