IND VS NZ 1st Test, Day 5 LIVE Updates: One might wonder why this Test is memorable for India despite their loss, but as mentioned earlier, few teams can push the opposition to the brink as India did, particularly after being all out for just 46 runs in their first innings. This match highlights what it takes to dominate a Test in India—dismissing India for a record-low total, a rarity in the cricketing world.
For New Zealand, this victory marks a welcome return to form following a disappointing tour of Sri Lanka. It’s a win that seemed increasingly impossible for any visiting side over the last decade. While England and Australia have defeated India on their home turf in recent years, neither team has seemed as dominant as New Zealand did throughout this first Test.
