CRICKET
This victory marked the first time a visiting team had managed to whitewash the Men in Blue at home since the year 2000.
New Zealand secured a remarkable victory over India by 25 runs in the final Test of the three-match series at the iconic Wankhede Cricket Stadium in Mumbai, completing a historic 3-0 whitewash on Indian soil. This victory marked the first time a visiting team had managed to whitewash the Men in Blue at home since the year 2000.
Despite a valiant effort, Team India fell short in their pursuit of a 147-run target on Day 3 of the Mumbai Test. New Zealand's bowlers made quick work of India's top order in just 7 overs. Rishabh Pant played a pivotal role in forming crucial partnerships with Jadeja and Sundar, aiding India's fightback in the match. Pant showcased his skill by scoring 64 runs off 57 balls, including 1 maximum and 9 boundaries.
Ajaz Patel shone with a six-wicket haul, while Glenn Phillips also impressed with three wickets on Day 3. In the first innings, the Kiwi batters posted a total of 235 runs after captain Tom Latham chose to bat first. Will Young and Daryl Mitchell's 87-run partnership was instrumental in setting the tone for New Zealand. Young contributed 71 runs off 138 balls, while Mitchell scored 82 runs off 129 balls. Jadeja's 5-wicket haul and Sundar's 4-wicket performance were notable highlights for India.
Despite a brief setback in the first innings, a crucial 96-run partnership between Gill and Pant sparked a remarkable comeback for India. Gill's impressive 90 runs and Pant's 60 runs in the first innings were crucial contributions. Ajaz Patel's 5-wicket haul for the Blackcaps added to the intensity of the match.
In the second innings, New Zealand were dismissed for 174 runs, with Ravindra Jadeja claiming 5 wickets and Ashwin taking 3 wickets. However, India's batting lineup faltered and bowled out for 121 runs.
