2nd Test: India Reach 81/1 At Lunch, Need 278 Runs For Win Against NZ
Despite Rohit Sharma: Yashasvi Jaiswal smashed an unbeaten 46 to lead India's charge in pursuit of 359 as the hosts reached 81/1 in just 12 overs at lunch on day three of the second Test against New Zealand at the MCA Stadium on Saturday.
On a pitch aiding spinners, Jaiswal put out a stunning show of hitting eye-catchy boundaries through his unbeaten 46 off 36 balls. He has been well supported by Shubman Gill, who’s not out on 22 off 20 balls, as the duo brought out sweeps of various kinds to keep the scoreboard moving.
Despite Rohit Sharma falling cheaply to Mitchell Santner, who was clutching to his right side, India would want for Jaiswal and Gill to put bowlers under pressure for longer period as India still require 278 more runs to conjure up an improbable win and save the series.
