India vs New Zealand Hosts bowled out for 46 in Bengaluru
India are bowled out for 46 by New Zealand on day two of the first Test in Bengaluru - the third-lowest score in their Test history.

India were bowled out for 46 by New Zealand on day two of the first Test in Bengaluru.

After the entire first day was washed out by rain, India chose to bat on a lively, seaming pitch and were dismissed for the third-lowest total in their Test history.

Virat Kohli, Sarfaraz Khan, KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin were all out for ducks, with seamers Matt Henry and Will O'Rourke taking 5-15 and 4-22 respectively.

Rishabh Pant with 20 and Yashasvi Jaiswal, who made 13, were the only batters to make double figures for India, who are top of the World Test Championship standings.

It was India's lowest total in a home Test, only beaten by their 36 all out against Australia in Adelaide in 2020 and 42 against England at Lord's in 1974.

New Zealand reached 180-3 by the close, giving them complete control of the Test with a lead of 134.

Tom Latham and Devon Conway went beyond the hosts' score with an opening partnership of 67 and Conway continued to make a 105-ball 91.

"You see the pitch and try and make a judgement. Sometimes you make the right call and sometimes, you don't," India captain Rohit Sharma said.

"I'm hurting a little bit because I made that call... the challenges that were thrown at us, we didn't respond to well and found ourselves in a situation where we got bowled out for 46.

"As a captain, it definitely hurts to see that number."
