India will aim to return to the winning ways when they host New Zealand in the second Test of the three-match series in Pune from October 24 to 28. The visiting side pulled off a heist and registered its first win in India in 36 years in the series opener. Tom Latham's New Zealand will aim for history when they take the field in the second game.

Rohit Sharma is close to a huge record and he can overtake Rahul Dravid in an elite list during the fixture. The India Test and ODI captain is just one century away from overtaking Dravid in the list of Indian batsmen with the most tons in international cricket. Rohit and Dravid share the third spot with 48 centuries each. He can also breach the 50-mark during the series.

Indian batsmen with most centuries	Hundreds
Sachin Tendulkar	100
Virat Kohli	80
Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid	48
Virender Sehwag and Sourav Ganguly	38
Sunil Gavaskar	35

The list of Indian batsmen with most centuries is topped by Sachin Tendulkar. The Master Blaster finished his career with 100 tons. He is followed by Virat Kohli, who has 80 centuries. Rohit and Dravid are at the third position. Virender Sehwag and Sourav Ganguly share the fourth spot with 38 centuries each. Sunil Gavaskar finished his career with 35 centuries and is at the fifth position.

Sachin also tops the overall list and is followed by Virat. With 71 centuries, Ricky Ponting sits at the third spot. He is followed by Kumar Sangakkara (63) and Jacques Kallis (62), respectively.

India made a big addition to their squad for the last two games and called up Washington Sundar on the day they lost the opening fixture of the series. Sundar's addition hints at the pitch being a rank-turner.

India look all set to play either Sundar or Axar Patel instead of Kuldeep Yadav. India could also play with four spin-bowling all-rounders in the must-win game.
