India are taking on New Zealand in the first Test of the three-match series at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. While Day 1 of the Test match was called off without a ball being bowled, the hosts had a nightmarish outing on Day 2, getting bowled out for their lowest Test total at home- 46- after winning the toss and opting to bat first.

Wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant, who took a blow on his knee, was seen doing some light batting practice on Friday. Pant did not keep wickets for India, but will bat if required in the second innings.

In a blow to the Indian cricket team, star wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant will not enter the field on Day 3 of the ongoing 1st Test against New Zealand in Bengaluru. Pant had hurt his knee while keeping on the second day's play.
