Axar Patel led the spin trio of Kuldeep Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja and himself with his 2 for 43.<br \/>Axar was unlucky to miss out on a hat-trick when skipper Rohit dropped an easy catch in the slips.<br \/>&#8220;May take him (Axar) for dinner tomorrow (smiles),&#8221; said Rohit after the match. &#8220;No, that was an easy catch; I should have taken that catch with the standards I have set for myself.&#8221;<br \/>Despite their comfortable win, India remained second in Group A standings, behind toppers New Zealand on net run-rate. The Kiwis had beaten Pakistan by 60 runs in the first match of this group.<br \/>The two matches also saw as many as four centurions. Will Young and Tom Latham led New Zealand&#8217;s win with their tons, while it was Gill and Bangladesh&#8217;s Towhid Hridoy who hit hundreds on Thursday. <br \/>India&#8217;s win paused the two-day action in Group A, with Afghanistan and South Africa getting set to open Group B at the National Stadium in <!-- -->Karachi<!-- --> on Friday.<\/div>\n<\/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 ?
