At that moment, <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/tom-latham\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" frmappuse=\"1\">Tom Latham<\/a> and Will Young were batting aggressively, prompting Rohit to spread the field to contain their scoring.<\/p>\n<div class=\"lOvcW\">\n<p class=\"efT4r\">\ud83d\udd34 LIVE: India vs New Zealand: Another embarrassing show by India batters, series in danger<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Shastri pointed out that with India conceding a lead of over 100 runs, they needed to bowl out New Zealand for just 120. He emphasized that an attacking field was essential and criticized the strategy of spreading the field as soon as a bowler conceded a few runs.<br \/>&#8220;New Zealand have managed to scatter away all the men around the bat,&#8221; Kartik highlighted.<br \/>&#8220;Also tells you, tactically, how you should be thinking. India should be thinking how to bowl out New Zealand for 120. For that to happen, you need to think about wickets, you need people in attacking positions. Yes, if the side gets to 60 for no loss, you can start to think differently. It also makes the bowler think that he wants wickets, not with a spread out field like this,&#8221; Shastri reckoned.<br \/>New Zealand were in sight of a historic series win in India after spinner <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/mitchell-santner\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" frmappuse=\"1\">Mitchell Santner<\/a> took 7-53 to help bowl out the hosts cheaply. A stunned India fell to 156 all out in their reply, gifting the visitors a first-innings lead of 103 on a turning Pune pitch.<br \/>New Zealand, who have never won a Test series in India and lead the three-match series 1-0, were 198-5 at stumps in their second knock, a lead of 301, after skipper Tom Latham hit 86.<\/div>\n<p><script>\nvar _mfq = window._mfq || [];\n_mfq.push([\"setVariable\", \"toi_titan\", window.location.href]);\n!(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    function loadFBEvents(isFBCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isFBCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        if (f.fbq) return;\n        n = f.fbq = function() {\n          n.callMethod ? n.callMethod(...arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n        };\n        if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n        n.push = n;\n        n.loaded = !0;\n        n.version = '2.0';\n        n.queue = [];\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js', n, t, s);\n      fbq('init', '593671331875494');\n      fbq('track', 'PageView');\n    };\n    function loadGtagEvents(isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      var id = document.getElementById('toi-plus-google-campaign');\n      if (id) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        t.id = 'toi-plus-google-campaign';\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/www.googletagmanager.com\/gtag\/js?id=AW-877820074', n, t, s);\n    };\n    function loadSurvicateJs(allowedSurvicateSections = []){\n      const section =  window.location.pathname.split('\/')[1]\n      const isHomePageAllowed = window.location.pathname === '\/' && allowedSurvicateSections.includes('homepage')\n      if(allowedSurvicateSections.includes(section) || isHomePageAllowed){\n        (function(w) {\n         function setAttributes() {\n                    var prime_user_status = window.isPrime ?
