NZ 171/9 at Stumps (Lead by 143 Runs) |India vs New Zealand Highlights of 3rd Test 2024 Day 2: Hosts Ahead After 15-Wicket Day at Wankhede

Stumps on Day 2! What a day it has been with New Zealand finishing proceedings with a 143-run lead. India bounced back after a late collapse on the opening day with Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant ensuring that the hosts had a slender 28-run lead as they overhauled New Zealand's 235. The Indians then came back strong with ball in hand with the spin duo of Ravi Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja showing their magic once again. While Ravi Ashwin scalped three wickets, Ravindra Jadeja took four while Akash Deep and Washington Sundar had one apiece. India not only bowled well but also were exceptional on the field, the highlight of it being Ravi Ashwin taking a splendid catch to dismiss Daryl Mitchell. India have the edge in this contest and will hope to end the New Zealand innings as early as possible on Day 3 to win the Test. 

OUT! Ravindra Jadeja has dismissed Matt Henry with the woodwork behind him rattled with a beautiful delivery. New Zealand lead by 143 runs and that'll be stumps on Day 2. Matt Henry b Ravindra Jadeja 10(16) 

OUT! Ravi Ashwin has ended Will Young's fighting knock finally and it is a wonderful caught-and-bowled effort that sees the right-hander depart. New Zealand have lost wickets in a heap and India can sense that they are ahead now. Will Young c and b Ravi Ashwin 51(100)

OUT! Ravindra Jadeja has dismissed Ish Sodhi with Virat Kohli taking a fine catch at cover. India are chipping away at the wickets and would want to wrap this New Zealand innings up in quick time. Ish Sodhi c Virat Kohli b Ravindra Jadeja 8(14)

FIFTY for Will Young! The right-hander has been in good form in the Test and has played well on a difficult track. He stands in India's way of restricting New Zealand to a low total. 

OUT! Ravi Ashwin has dismissed Glenn Phillips with a brilliant delivery! The right-hander was bamboozled by the ball which pitched on leg-stump, went on to spin and rattle the woodwork behind. India and Ashwin are on fire here. Glenn Phillips b Ravi Ashwin 26(14)

OUT! One more for India and Ravindra Jadeja! Tom Blundell has ended up having a bottom edge onto the stumps. India on a roll here! Tom Blundell b Ravindra Jadeja 4(6) 

OUT! Ravindra Jadeja has dismissed Will Young and what a catch this has been! The right-hander skied one and Ravi Ashwin does really well to take the catch and break this partnership. India have struck and would ideally want one or two more wickets today. Daryl Mitchell c Ashwin b Jadeja 21(44)

New Zealand have managed to somewhat steady the ship with Will Young and Daryl Mitchell out in the middle. India would hope to take a few more wickets which will put more pressure on New Zealand. 

Out! Big wicket for India. Ravindra steps out for a big slog across the line and misses it completely. The ball spins past his outside edge and the keeper does well to grab it. First wicket for Ashwin in the match. Rachin Ravindra st Rishabh Pant b Ravi Ashwin 4(3)
