India vs New Zealand Live Updates: For India, it was the Ravichandran Ashwin show, he got three of the 5 to fall and bowled beautifully. Axar Patel also got one. Jayant Yadav and the seamers were a tad disappointing. They could have had Nicholls too had India taken the review on Yadav’s bowling. However, they will be pretty pleased with the day.

IND vs NZ Live Cricket Score, 2nd Test Live Scorecard: Tossed up, on a driving length but well outside off. Henry Nicholls doesn’t take the bait as he lets it through. The umpires call for Stumps and NEW ZEALAND END THE DAY ON 140/5! Another session which belongs to India! 4 wickets is what they got and they are just the 5 wickets away from winning this game! A very strange approach from the Kiwis in this session. They came out with fire, they looked to play shots especially, Mitchell, Taylor, and Young. It did not come off that well for Young and Taylor but Mitchell played really well for his half-century. Nicholls gave him good support. Once Mitchell fell through Blundell did not last for long but Nicholls and Ravindra ensured there were no more wickets to fall. New Zealand 62 & 140/5, need 400 runs to win vs India (325 & 276/7dec.) at Wankhede Stadium | Mitchell 60, Nicholls 36 not out; Ashwin 3/27

Live Score IND vs NZ 2nd Test: Peach! Ravichandran Ashwin drifts this one in, around off stump but the ball just grips and turns away sharply after pitching. Henry Nicholls looks to defend but the ball goes past the outside edge and Saha with a great take yet again.

Live Cricket Score Today: FOUR! Edged…but safe! Henry Nicholls has batted pretty well and maybe deserves a bit of luck. On a length, around off and turning away sharply. Nicholls looks to cut but the extra bounce makes him get it off the outside edge. The ball flies past the first slip and ends up in the fence. NZ 62 & 138/5, need 402 runs to win vs IND (325 & 276/7dec.) at Wankhede Stadium

India vs New Zealand Live Streaming: OUT! RUN OUT! One wicket brings two here! Tom Blundell goes for a DUCK! Mix-up there in the middle and Blundell pays the price! Tossed up on off. Blundell drives it to mid-off and sets off for a single. Henry Nicholls sends him back as there is no run there. Tom Blundell tries to go back but the throw from Srikar Bharat is accurate and Wriddhiman Saha whips the bails off as Blundell is short of his crease. New Zealand 62 & 129/5, need 411 runs to win vs India (325 & 276/7dec.) at Wankhede Stadium
