India level series as Bhuvneshwar shines: 2nd ODI (Pune)

Bhuvneshwar Kumar led India’s seam attack to first restrict New Zealand to 230 before half centuries from Shikhar Dhawan and Dinesh Karthik took them to a 6 wicket win to level the series 1-1.

Kumar took 3-45 to stop the Kiwi momentum after a 60-run partnership between Tom Latham and Henry Nicholls had repaired the damage after an early collapse. The Black Caps finished their innings at 230-9.

India 232 for 4 (Dhawan 68, Karthik 64*) beat New Zealand 230 for 9 (Nicholls 42, de Grandhomme 41, Bhuvneshwar 3-45) by six wickets.
