IND vs NZ, 2nd Test Live streaming: After losing the series opener and even though some players did put up brilliant performances, the Men in Blue will aim to bounce back in the second Test match, which will be held in Pune. The India fans reminisced how they bounced back against England after losing the series opener and are hopeful that they will make a similar comeback against the Kiwis.
There are high chance that new players will be included in the playing XI for the second Test match. Since Washington Sundar has been added to the squad on the back of his brilliant performances in the Ranji Trophy, there are rumors that both head coach Gautam Gambhir and skipper Rohit Sharma would like to make some changes to acknowledge the weaknesses that they endured in the series opener.
The Rohit Sharma-led side had a disastrous start in the first Test match as they were skittled out for just 46 runs during their first innings and thus recorded their lowest-ever Test score in India. But then they bounced back during the second innings as batters like Sarfaraz Khan, Rishabh Pant, and Virat Kohli. But the bowlers failed to pressurize the visitors and thus led to speculations about making possible changes in the playing XI for the second Test match.

All eyes will be on Shubman Gill, who will be returning to the playing XI as a top-order batter. Both the fans and the experts are looking forward to his performance in the second Test match.
As the Rohit Sharma-led side gears up for the second Test match in Pune, the team management would most likely be making some changes to improve their weaknesses, which they faced in their series opener, and at the same time, the players will also aim to bounce back as they have done in the past. The upcoming second Test match would be an important clash as everything would be at stake for India in their WTC campaign.
