NZ thrashes India 3-0 in the Test Series

In a thrilling finish, New Zealand triumphed over India by 25 runs in the third Test of their series, completing a clean sweep with a 3-0 victory. Played in Mumbai, the match showcased intense competition, but ultimately, India fell short while chasing a target of 147 runs.

New Zealand posted scores of 235 and 174, setting a challenging target. India started their second innings on a shaky note, losing wickets rapidly under pressure. Rishabh Pant emerged as the standout performer for India, scoring 64 runs, but he found little support from his teammates. Washington Sundar was the second-highest scorer with just 12 runs, highlighting the batting struggles of the Indian lineup.

The New Zealand bowling attack, spearheaded by Ajaz Patel, was relentless. Patel's remarkable performance saw him take 11 wickets in the match, with figures of 5 for 59 in the first innings and 6 for 40 in the second. His ability to dismantle the Indian batting order proved crucial to New Zealand's success.

As the match progressed, the Indian innings fell apart, unable to build partnerships or recover from early setbacks. The Kiwis, buoyed by their bowlers' exploits, celebrated their series victory as India succumbed to pressure.

This win not only secures New Zealand’s dominance in the series but also reflects their growing strength in Test cricket. For India, it’s a disappointing result at home, raising questions about their batting resilience and strategy moving forward. With the series concluded, both teams will look ahead to their upcoming fixtures, aiming to improve and build on their experiences from this tightly contested series.
