India reached the close at 27 without loss after openers Virender Sehwag (22) and Gautam Gambhir (six) negotiated a seven-over spell.
Ominously for the Black Caps, Sehwag hit five boundaries before stumps were pulled to back-up Vettori's thoughts the pitch was flattening out.
"Having batted on it for two sessions I've realised that the bite has been taken out of (the wicket)," Vettori said.
"For us to go well against these guys we are going to have to bowl really well, really disciplined and be patient with them. If we don't a big total could easily pile up on us."
