India dominated New Zealand by eight wickets in the second One Day International to secure an unbeatable 2-0 series lead in Raipur on Saturday.
The brittle New Zealand batting order was destroyed by India’s unrelenting pace attack as the home team blasted to an eight-wicket victory in the second ODI to clinch the three-match series in Raipur on Saturday. Before India scored the runs in 20.1 overs, the Mohammed Shami-led attack made an effective attempt to bowl out New Zealand for a paltry 108. Shubman Gill was undefeated on 40 off 53 deliveries, while Rohit Sharma scored a magnificent 50 off 51 balls. Although it was a convincing victory, the early end left the sea of spectators who had gone to the far-off Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh Stadium for Raipur’s first international game wanting more.
