Team Analysis
The Kiwi squad has numerous strengths in this second test match. Perhaps, the biggest asset that the guest team has is their classy yet extremely talented batting all-rounder, Rachin Ravindra. Ravindra has superb statistics, when playing on Indian pitches and he proved his skills in the last match where he made 134 runs in the first innings and 39 (not out) in the second innings which propelled his team towards victory.
Rachin is accompanied by other star New Zealand all-rounders namely Devon Conway, Glenn Phliips, and Mitchell Santner. Matt Henry and Tim Southee are dominating in the kiwi pace unit and their stellar spells in the last test match made headlines throughout the world. However, it should be highlighted here that New Zealand’s skipper, Tom Latham is in poor form and hasn’t been able to perform well in the last few games. His poor form might impact the team’s morale and confidence in tough situations.
The Indian team enjoys their classical bowling line-up as their main strength. Their bowling unit includes versatile options of experienced spin and fast bowling. Key players include Jasprit Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav, and Mohammad Siraj. Moreover, the Indian team has an abundance of talent and experience in the batting line-up in the form of Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, and Rohit Sharma. These experienced stars can yield a good target in tough situations.
