India vs New Zealand 2024/25, IND vs NZ 2nd Test Match Report, October 24 – 28, 2024
Throw it New Zealand he chose to hit vs India
After losing what appeared to be a good defeat, Tom Latham won what was good and good to win. The Pune pitch was dry, especially with the good length of the spinners. It was not easy because it was the first pitch.
With Kane Williamson ruled out of this Test, New Zealand’s batting has not changed. A glute niggle in Matt Henry has resulted in a change in bowling. Mitchell Santner brought in an additional spin option, and increased their batting. Santner came off a disappointing tour of Sri Lanka.
India made three changes. Washington Sundar, who is not part of the starting XI, has been included in the XI at the expense of Kuldeep Yadav, who was not picked by the New Zealand batsmen in Bengaluru. India may have wanted to stretch their batting order, but they also wanted the spin-bowler to take the ball away from the left-handers in New Zealand’s line-up.
Shubman Gill returned to his No.3 position, while Sarfaraz Khan – his replacement – was rewarded with his 150 in the final Test. So making way for Gill was KL Rahul. The third change was the same: Akash Deep replaced Mohammed Siraj, who looked impressive in patches but didn’t take the wickets India would have wanted.
