At the end of India head coach Ravi Shastri-s press conference on Friday, a journalist asked if pace ace Jasprit Bumrah should be bowling more yorkers. "I will tell him that," quipped Shatri before leaving. Perhaps, there was some substance in the question. For, India don-t seem to know how to blow the tail away.

In the first Test, New Zealand-s last three wickets added 123 runs, including a career high score of 38 by No.11 Trent Boult. It led to the Black Caps gaining a substantial lead of 183 runs. Skipper Virat Kohli had stated at the end of the match that is always difficult to fight back after conceding such a big lead.
