New Zealand’s openers got off to a flyer but tight Indian bowling restricted the visitors to a meagre-looking 153 for 6 in the second T20 in Ranchi on Friday. At the time of going to press, India were 79 for no loss at the end of the 10th over with KL Rahul (45 not out) and Rohit Sharma (0 not out) at the crease. World Cup runners-up New Zealand, put into bat, racked up 64 in the power play for the loss of just Martin Guptill.
But they struggled to score off the spin duo of Axar Patel and Ravichandran Ashwin and debutant seamer Harshal Patel. Guptill smashed 31 off 15—despite a bouncer to the head—before skying a slower Deepak Chahar delivery into the gloves of Rishabh Pant.
