On Virat Kohli Getting Bowled On A Full Toss, New Zealand's Mitchell Santner Gives 'Shock' Reaction

Having spun the second Test and, perhaps, the series in New Zealand's favour with his career-best 7/53, Mitchell Santner admitted it was ‘shocking' to clean up Virat Kohli on a full toss in Pune on Friday. Santner's seven-for handed New Zealand a handy 103-run lead in the first innings on a low, slow surface, which the Kiwis stretched to 301 by end of play. The left-arm spinner's outstanding spell included the scalp of Kohli as India collapsed to 156 all out in the first innings.

Former New Zealand cricketer and broadcaster Simon Doull lambasted Indian batters for their poor batting performance against spinners Mitchell Santner and Glenn Phillips during the second Test against New Zealand at Pune, saying that it is a misconception that modern Indian players are good against tweakers, rather they are as vulnerable as overseas batters on good turning tracks.
