Once again the Indian spinners spun a web around the Kiwi batsmen as they failed to read them. Kuldeep was the highest taker as he picked up four wickets for just 45 runs.

Chahal got the wicket of Colin Munro who was looking set on 31 and came back to take the last wicket of Ferguson. Kedar Jadhav too chipped in with the important wicket of Ross Taylor although Taylor’s wicket was more about MS Dhoni’s quick stumping rather than Kedar Jadhav’s bowling.

The Kuldeep-Chahal combo once again showed us as to how wickets in the middle overs can change the game. Both the spinners are picking wickets in the middle overs for quite a while now. The spinners were well supported by the pacers as Bhuvi and Shami picked up three wickets between them.

The all-round bowling effort was one of the main reasons as to why India dominated the second ODI.
