This game is set to begin at 9:30 a.m. IST, and live streaming will be available on Star Sports Network.
The second Test match between India and New Zealand will be held at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai from December 3rd to December 7th. The first Test at Kanpur ended in a tense tie. India was on the verge of winning the game when the field’s inadequate lighting forced them to abandon play.
At Kanpur, India won the toss and chose to bat first. In the first innings, India amassed 345 runs. Shreyas Iyer’s first century was followed by half-centuries from Shubman Gill and Ravindra Jadeja. Tim Southee took a perfect 5-wicket haul, while Jamieson and Ajaz Patel took three and two wickets, respectively.
New Zealand got off to a good start, putting up a 151-run partnership for the first wicket, with Tom Latham scoring 95 runs and Will Young scoring 89. However, there was little help from the other batsmen, and as a consequence, despite a strong start, New Zealand finished on 296. Axar Patel took five wickets, while Ashwin took three.
In the second innings, India declared with a score of 234. Shreyas Iyer led the way with 65 runs, followed by Wriddhiman Saha (61*). Southee and Jamieson both took three wickets. India bowled brilliantly in the last innings but were unable to close the game off, and New Zealand narrowly avoided loss by one wicket. Axar Patel took four scalps, while Ashwin took three.
Shreyas Iyer, a debutant, was named the game’s player of the game for his impressive performances with the bat in both innings.
The series is still at level, and the victor of this game will take the title. Virat Kohli will also be back in the Indian lineup for this encounter.

IND vs NZ Must Picks
Shreyas Iyer had a terrific start to his international Test career, scoring a tonne in his first innings and then adding a cherry on top with a half-century in the second. He’ll also be a must-have choice in this contest.
Tim Southee has been impressive in this format, taking 8 wickets in his last game, including a 5-wicket haul. In the bottom order, he may also contribute with the bat.
Axar Patel has been quite impressive in the few Test matches he has played so far in his career; he also had a 5-wicket haul in the previous game’s first innings. His batting effort in the second innings is equally noteworthy.
Ravichandran Ashwin took six wickets in the first Test and also batted well, scoring 70 runs. In this game, he will be the player to keep an eye on.
Tom Latham has had a wonderful start for the visitors at the top, scoring 95 in the first innings and 52 in the second.
