India vs New Zealand: India pacer Mohammed Siraj got into a banter with New Zealand opener Devon Conway. The incident took place after the hosts were bundled out for a forgetful 46 on Day 2 of the first Test at the M. Chinnaswamy in Bengaluru. The incident took place during the 15th over of New Zealand's first innings when Conway defended a ball from Siraj. The Indian pacer picked up the ball and then he said a few words and then tried to scare the batter. Conway, on the other hand, reacted with a wink. Siraj was trying to get into the mind of the batter and distract him.

Meanwhile, the visitors are in total control of proceedings at the M. Chinnaswamy on Thursday. At the time of filing the copy, NZ lead by 62 runs with nine wickets in hand. 

AS IT HAPPENED

Previously, resuming from 34/6 at lunch, Matt Henry struck on the very first ball by catching shoulder edge of Ravichandran Ashwin and the ball lobbed to gully. He then enticed Rishabh Pant into tentative defence and edged to second slip.

William O’Rourke had Bumrah heaving to long leg, before Henry ended the Indian batting horror show by having Kuldeep Yadav caught at gully to cap off a brilliant time for New Zealand with the red cherry. Henry ended up with 5-15 and also reached the landmark of 100 Test wickets.

O'Rourke, playing in his first Test in India, made a fantastic impression with his 4-22, while the veteran Tim Southee took a scalp. For India, bowled out for their lowest Test total at home, Pant (20) and Yashasvi Jaiswal (13) reached double figures in a sorry Indian batting show laced with five ducks.
