KOLKATA: India were all out for 263 in their second innings on the fourth morning of the second test at Eden Gardens, setting New Zealand a target of 376 runs for a series-equalling win on Monday. Wriddhiman Saha was not out on 58 for his second unbeaten fifty of the test with the hosts looking to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series and reclaim the top spot in the world test rankings from Pakistan. Trent Boult, Matt Henry and Mitchell Santner picked up three wickets each for the touring side.
