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)

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)

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

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

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

Despite the odd one spinning away from the bat, NZ batters Devon Conway and Will Young are defiant at the crease and have shown patience against the likes of Ravichandran Ashwin and the rest. Rohit Sharma has spread the field, an odd occurrence given the need of wickets, as he continues to search for wickets.

NZ - 69/1

Will Young, who was batting so well, has been dismissed by R Ashwin on day 1 of the 2nd IND vs NZ Test. A feather touch of the gloves and Young has to go, and it would not have been possible if not for Sarfaraz Khan and Virat Kohli, who appealed and asked for a review. India strike right before lunch.

NZ - 76/2

Could be a shared session as India got two wickets but New Zealand have raced to a decent score in the first session of the second Test in Pune. The visitors will be looking to go two down on a pitch that is assisting the spinners.

NZ - 87/2

At lunch, New Zealand have reached 92/2 with Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra grinding out the final few overs before the interval. India took two wickets in the first session, Tom Latham and Will Young as the hosts looked to take hold of the Test match. However, Conway and Ravindra have grind out and have held fort.

NZ - 92/2

India will be eyeing wickets post-lunch on day 1 of the second Test against New Zealand in Pune. Jasprit Bumrah started off waywardly with his lines as he gave away two boundaries in his first over post-lunch. Devon Conway has scored his fifty as Kiwis look to solidify in this session.

NZ - 111/2

New Zealand opening batter Devon Conway is going on nicely in the post-lunch session as Indian spinners struggle to make inroads. NZ have not lost any wicket in this session and will look to build up till 200-runs amidst a hot and sunny Pune.

NZ - 130/2 (40 Overs)

India have struck post-lunch with the wicket of the dangerous Devon Conway (76). The southpaw was prodding his bat and his blade found a slight edge that was neatly grabbed by Rishabh Pant behind the wickets. Important wicket for the hosts.

NZ - 140/3 (44 Overs)

The match has crossed the half-way mark and NZ are nicely poised at 159/3 with Rachin Ravindra going nicely. He is accompanied by Daryl Mitchell as both the Kiwi batters are targeting a big score here, despite the spin on offer.

NZ - 159/3 (50 Overs)

Rachin Ravindra's fine form in this series continues as the fine left-hander scored yet another fifty, following on from his brilliant century in Bengaluru in the 1st Test. Two fours off Akash Deep's over and some catches not going in the Indian hands, has put Rohit Sharma under some worry.

NZ - 185/3

After a well-made half-century, Rachin Ravindra was dismissed for 65 by Washington Sundar. The Indian all-rounder crashed through Ravindra's defence as the Kiwi batter had no answer to the 'ripper' of a delivery.

NZ - 198/4

Rachin Ravindra's wicket paved way for one more as Washington Sundar sent back Tom Blundell to hand hosts the initiative going into the tea break. Despite 200-runs on the board, India will sense they can dismiss the Kiwis under 250.

NZ - 201/5

Daryl Mitchell was the latest to be dismissed by Team India as Washington Sundar struck post-tea to hand India the initiative. Kiwis are rattled in Pune as India look to chip away with wickets at crucial intervals.

NZ - 210/6

Kiwis are seven down in Pune as they look to score runs on a track that has been assisting the spinners from day one. Ravichandran Ashwin is in the thick of it all, with another four-wicket haul (and eyeing more) as the hosts look to wrap up the tail.

NZ - 242/7

Washington Sundar has plucked seven wickets on his return to Test cricket, 7/59, as the BlackCaps were bowled out for 259 in their first innings. Washington has bowled out some exceptional deliveries today, and the last wicket of Mitchell Santner was one of them. What will be India's reply?

NZ - 259 All Out

Just as one thought the spinners would rule the roost in Pune, Tim Southee has produced an absolute 'jaffa' of a delivery to send back Rohit Sharma as India lose their first wicket on day 1 of the 2nd IND Vs NZ Test in Pune. Pressure has been created by the visitors and it will be some battle between the Indian batters and Kiwi bowlers.

NZ - 259

IND - 1/1
