2nd Test: Santner Helps NZ Bowl Out India For 156, Take 103-run Lead
Mitchell Santner: Left-arm spinner Mitchell Santner grabbed career-best figures of 7-53 as New Zealand took a 103-run lead after bowling out India for 156 on day two of second Test at the MCA Stadium on Friday.
A day after Washington Sundar blew away New Zealand, it was Santner’s turn to torment the Indian batters through a stunning exhibition of varying his pace, line and length, flight and dip to pick his maiden five-wicket haul in Tests by bowling relentlessly from the commentary box end.
He was also well-supported by Glenn Phillips’ 2-26 and helped by some rash shot selection and lack of gumption from the Indian batters, who have now conceded a big lead to New Zealand, especially with India slated to bat last on the pitch. With this, India are now staring at a possibility of losing a Test series at home for the first time since 2012, till they conjure up something extraordinary to save the game.
