The New Zealand team which lost 0-2 against a weak team like Sri Lanka, defeated Team India in Bengaluru. On the second day of the Bengaluru Test, Team India's batting got stacked like a pack of cards on M Chinnaswamy's pitch. Team India scored only 46 runs in the first innings. The situation was such that only two batsmen of Team India reached double figures, while half the team could not even open the account. The accounts of Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Sarfaraz Khan, Ravindra Jadeja and R Ashwin were not even opened. Rishabh Pant was the leading run scorer of the team by scoring 20 runs.

Team India's smallest score

46 runs is the lowest score of Team India on its home soil. Before this, the Indian team had collapsed for 75 runs against West Indies in 1979. This is the third lowest score of Team India in Test cricket. In 2020, Team India was bundled out for 36 runs against Australia and now this team could not reach 50 runs at its own home.

Team India stunned in Chinnaswamy

It became difficult for Team India to score runs on the same ground of Chinnaswamy where it rains sixes and fours. Captain Rohit Sharma won the coin toss on the second day of the game and he chose to bat first. After this the New Zealand bowlers finished the game. Tim Southee gave the first blow to Team India, who bowled Rohit Sharma for just 2 runs. After this Virat Kohli came to the crease and this player was dismissed without opening the account. After this the same happened with Sarfaraz Khan also.

The process of falling wickets did not stop

It seemed that Rishabh Pant and Yashasvi Jaiswal would handle the innings but New Zealand's fast bowlers had different plans. William O'Rourke also dismissed Yashasvi Jaiswal. KL Rahul also could not open the account and Team India lost half the team for 33 runs. After this, it seemed as if two wickets were in line to fall. Jadeja and Ashwin also settled for zero and within no time Team India was reduced to an embarrassing score. Which is his lowest score in a domestic test match.
