India vs New Zealand Live Score, Bengaluru Weather Updates Day 2: India look to throw a few punches on Day 3

India vs New Zealand Live Score, Bengaluru Weather Report 1st Test Day 2: As they say, it’s the moving day of a Test match, and there’s lots that can happen on day three of the first Test between India and New Zealand in Bengaluru, with weather still a concern but lesser than what it was earlier when rain washed out the opening day.

Unwanted history was created by the hosts on Thursday. Shot out for 46, thanks to the nine wickets shared between Matt Henry and William ORourke, India registered their lowest ever total in an innings of a Test played at home. As many as five batsman got out for a zero, including Virat Kohli.

New Zealand then took further control of the match, moving to 180 for 3 before close of play, led by opener Devon Conway’s attacking 91 off 105 balls, which put the visitors ahead by 134 runs.

At close of play on Thursday, which was effectively the first day of the match after the opening day (Wednesday) was washed out by rain, Rachin Ravindra was batting on 22 with Daryl Mitchell at the other end on 14.

At this stage, the match is firmly in New Zealand’s grip, unless Jasprit Bumrah & Co trigger a collapse today and keep the visitors’ lead to under 250, which still will be a huge advantage and put the Indian batsmen under immense pressure in the second innings.
