New Delhi. The Indian team has been in trouble during the Test series against New Zealand. After losing the first two consecutive matches, the condition of Team India, which came to Mumbai to save its face, is no different here too. After all out New Zealand for 235 runs in the first innings, India had lost 4 wickets for just 86 runs by the end of the first day’s play. From here, there are 3 batsmen for the Indian team who can change the course of the match. Shubhman Gill and Rishabh Pant returned unbeaten on the first day while Sarfaraz Khan is yet to arrive.

It is very important for India to win the Mumbai test. There are two reasons behind this, first that Rohit Sharma’s team would like to avoid a clean sweep. On the other hand, every match of Team India has become important to make it to the final of the ICC World Test Championship. On the first day of the Mumbai Test, India bowled out the visiting team for just 235 runs on the basis of the brilliant bowling of Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar. However, in the first innings, India also lost its top 4 batsmen for just 86 runs. Now everything will depend on the lower order batsmen on the second day.
