On the last day of a rain-shortened series opener, New Zealand won eight wickets to claim their first Test victory in India since 1988.
India lost the Test match in Bengaluru by eight wickets, despite the excitement around Sarfaraz Khan’s century and Rishabh Pant’s outstanding performance. Very few teams return to Test matches after being bowled out for 46, notwithstanding the impressive recovery in the second innings.
William O. Rourke is around one inch shorter than Kyle Jamison, therefore Indian hitters have had difficulty against him. During the latter part of the fourth evening, he was having problems with his back-of-length deliveries, which were starting from the length. During the Test match, Matt Henry and Tim Southee also contributed.
According to Indian bowling, which is quite proud of its home conditions, Rohit Sharma made a poor pick on Day 3, and there was a lot of mediocre bowling thereafter, particularly while Tim Southee and Rachin Ravindra were batting. After 36 years in India, New Zealand has finally won a Test match overall.
