Following India’s back to back defeats in the ongoing Test series against New Zealand, fans have expressed their outrage, calling for the resignation of head coach Gautam Gambhir. This series marks a historic low for Indian cricket, as it ended their 12-year unbeaten streak at home, with New Zealand taking a 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
Mitchell Santner propels New Zealand to a historic win over India
Mitchell Santner, who had never taken more than three wickets in an innings or six in a match, led New Zealand to a historic victory in Pune with remarkable match figures of 13 for 157. In the second innings, he bowled 29 consecutive overs, claiming six wickets, following his unbroken 19.3-over spell in the first innings, where he took 7 for 53. This performance secured New Zealand’s first-ever series win in India and handed India their first home series defeat since 2012.
