"Mediocre bowlers and spin track bullies" - Fans slam Indian spinners after they fail to pick up a single wicket on Day 2

Team India bowlers had an arduous day on the field on Friday. They failed to pick up even a single wicket on Day 2 of the first Test against New Zealand.

The Kiwi openers Tom Latham (50*) and Will Young (75*) played magnificent knocks. They put on an unbeaten 129-run opening partnership on Day 2 of the first test. Their stand has put New Zealand in a strong position as they now have a solid platform to build their innings tomorrow.

None of the five Indian bowlers managed to provide a breakthrough for the home team today. Spin trio Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, and Axar Patel did get a few deliveries to turn at times. However, the sluggish nature of the pitch helped the batters in negating the spin threat without serious trouble.

Ravichandran Ashwin plays a handy knock-on on Day 2 to take the hosts to 345 in the first innings

Earlier, Team India's lower order could not add too many runs to the overnight total. Tim Southee bowled a phenomenal spell upfront and picked up a fifer. Shreyas Iyer played a few attacking shots and scored a memorable century on his Test debut.

Iyer (105) perished soon after reaching the milestone. Ravichandran Ashwin (38) played a useful knock to help Team India reach 345 before getting all-out. Many thought that this score was enough on this pitch. But now, after witnessing the determined performances of New Zealand openers, they are having second thoughts.

Spinners have to re-evaluate their plans and come in with different strategies on day three to dismiss the gritty New Zealand batters. It is going to be an interesting day for the fans tomorrow.
