India have vowed no let-up as they target a clean sweep in the series against New Zealand with a win in the second and final Test starting on Friday, skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni has said. The hosts put in a strong all-round performance to win the opening Test by an innings and 115 runs with a day to spare in Hyderabad on Sunday. “We don’t have to be overconfident. We are a side which respects the opposition,” the Indian captain said on the eve of the match in Bangalore. “Whatever right we did in the first Test we have to repeat everything. We have to try and stick to the basics and keep it simple. We don’t want to complicate too much.” Attacking the Indian spinners is the best possible way to survive against them, says New Zealand captain Ross Taylor. “It’s never easy when you lose a Test by over an innings,” Taylor said. “We need to forget about it as quickly as possible, talk amongst the group and find ways of playing Ashwin and Ojha.”
