India vs New Zealand Highlights, 1st Test, Day 2: New Zealand finished Day 2 on 180/3, as Chennai Super Kings (CSK) batters Rachin Ravindra and Daryl Mitchell held fort.

His score was almost double of the total that the entire Indian team managed in the first innings. India crumbled to 46 all out, their third-lowest score in Test history, and lowest-ever at home. Five batters scored ducks, while only Rishabh Pant and Yashasvi Jaiswal made it to double-digits. India's misery was compiled on later in the day, as Pant left the field with an injury scare to his right knee. (SCORECARD)
