India Vs New Zealand 2nd Test Day 1 LIVE Score: Kiwis Thwart IND Spin Attack In Pune; NZ - 61/1

The Pune pitch is way different to the Bengaluru track, as the former is spinning and turning from day 1. The Kiwi batters are thwarting all the deliveries but it will be a stern Test for them against the likes of Ashwin and the rest.

NZ - 49/1

The Indian spinners have kept a tight line on the first day of this 2nd Test against New Zealand in Pune. Ravichandran Ashwin and Washington Sundar have begun well and look to exploit more of the Pune conditions as they look for early burst.

NZ - 43/1

Ravi Ashwin has struck in his very first over of the day and has dismissed Tom Latham, the NZ skipper. The Kiwi skipper was struck at the crease as the delivery, pitched on a length on leg stump, turned after pitching and beat the bat as Latham tried to defend.

NZ - 32/1

Apart from a few misses, NZ batters have started off well. They have warded off the new ball with ease and there's hardly any swing on offer. Akash Deep, who has been decent coming up to this series, has contributed 15 runs in his two overs.

NZ - 18/0 (5 Overs)

Action has got underway in Pune as Indian bowlers led by the indomitable Jasprit Bumrah eyes wickets in the morning session. India were humiliated in Bengaluru when they were bowled out for 46 in the first innings. That's why the management has made three changes in the playing XI.

NZ - 7/0 (2 Overs)
