Opener Tom Latham and Will Young batted with confidence in the second innings as New Zealand consolidated their position in the IND vs NZ 2nd Test reaching 85/2 at tea to take an overall lead of 188 runs against India on day two on Friday.

Latham (37 not out) and Young (23) overcame the early hiccup of losing Devon Conway by stitching together a 42-run partnership after Kiwi spinner Mitchell Santner had demolished the Indian batting line-up for 156 in the first innings with career-best figures of 7/53 in 19.3 overs.
