Shami, India’s tempo spearhead, lower back figures of three-18 to help dismiss the Black Caps for 108 after the hosts elected to bowl first in Raipur.
Skipper Rohit Sharma made fifty one and Shubman Gill an unbeaten 40 as India romped domestic in 20.1 overs to take an unassailable 2-zero lead within the three-healthy series.

Glenn Phillips made 36 as he blended with the center- and lower-order batsmen including Michael Bracewell (22) and Mitchell Santner (27) to take the overall past one hundred, but the innings lasted best 34.3 overs.

Phillips saved up the defiance in another partnership with the left-surpassed Santner. The pair put on 47 before Pandya bowled Santner.
Phillips departed in an attempt to hit out spinner Sundar simplest to be caught at mid-wicket, and the innings quickly folded.
