India vs. New Zealand: 2nd Test Day 1

India faced New Zealand at a new venue yesterday, the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad, followed by an unresisting draw at the Sardar Patel Stadium Ahmedabad, earlier this week.New Zealand opted to bat first after winning the toss again for the 11th time in the last 12 Tests. India has won the toss only once in this series.

India's team remained unchanged while New Zealand replaced 3 players with Bret Arnel, Martin Guptill and Tim Southee.The biggest concern for the Kiwis is want of stability at the top order. As for the Tigers, there may not be enough support from the tourists in the series.

At the tea, New Zealand had scored 159 runs after losing two wickets. But they had lost their first wicket at merely 4 runs. After 56 overs New Zealand were playing at 162 runs after losing two wickets.
