Pune/IBNS: New Zealand set 359 runs as target for India to win the second Test in Pune on Saturday.

Though New Zealand were looking strong to go past the 300-mark, the Indian bowlers managed to bowl out the Kiwis for 255 in the second innings this morning.

Washington Sundar, who picked 7 wickets in the first innings, clinched another 4 in the second innings while allrounder Ravindra Jadeja picked 3 wickets.

On a spin-friendly wicket, cricket icon Ravichandran Ashwin picked 2 wickets for 97 runs in the second innings.

New Zealand skipper Tom Latham was the top scorer for the visitors in the second innings with his 86 runs.

The Kiwis bowled out India for just 156 in the first innings after putting 259 on board after winning the toss and electing to bat first on day 1 of the match.
