Rohit Sharma-led India had scored a nervy last-over, five-wicket win in the first match at Jaipur. They would like to register a victory in a more authoritative way in Ranchi and get that unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
The most heartening for India will be the effort of R Ashwin as the veteran off-spinner grabbed two wickets at a time when the Kiwis are appeared to set for a bigger total.
Ashwin’s wickets of Mark Chapman and Glenn Phillips arrested the progress of New Zealand and restricted them for a under-170 total.
The batting effort of Suryakumar Yadav too will be pleasing for head coach Rahul Dravid and his associates in the backroom.
The Mumbai batsman made a rollicking fifty to anchor India’s chase that began in good fashion with Rohit motoring his way in the Power Play segment.
However, SKY lost his wicket in the closing stages of the match, creating an artificial excitement and the management would like to see him staying in the middle and finishing his job.
