New Zealand can be considered the most successful sporting nation in the world. To win 10 gold medals at the Olympics (and 20 total medals) and be one of the best in both cricket and rugby, two of the most popular sports in the world while having a population of around 5 million is insane. Safe to say that New Zealand have always punched above their weight.
Americas cup,hockey,softball,netball,league theyve won multiple world titles in too not to mention their great individual athletes like Lydia Ko the greatest female golfer ever
1st legal trade unions 1st free education 1st to establish 8hr work day and 40hr week 1st to let women vote (ie worlds 1st true democracy) 1st free medical care... By free, I mean taxpayer funded. Ie, not just sports.
I hope the New Zealand public are proud, this is an incredible achievement, possibly even bigger than winning world cups. I do hope their people are proud
We are used to winning in NZ we do it often in various sports but to be honest most kiwis wouldnt even know this was on with league,rugby,netball also on at the same time in fact NZ play Australia in league and netball this afternoon who we beat in both the last time
It is a concoction of freak happenings which just fell in place not by design but by chance. Look at these factors: First test unbelievably overcast condition so suitable for fast and disciplined bowling. Rohit totally misread them and gave Wellington on a platter. That bowling can only succeed backed by good catching and alert ground fielding. They cameupwith howlers not one not two but too many incredible catches you don't find in one innings. Even if ine of them grassed story would have been different. It hsppens once in 37 years. Don't expectit to repeat. Second test ahain id a self made disaster. Lnowing fully well how we capiluted to Hartly and Bashir last year giving them sevenfer we dug our own grave by not preparing normal pitch with bounce and turning after third day sort pitch. Indians have a bad legacy of every body playing like Dravid blocking as if back leg locked with chain or with cement concrete. They don't movr outin the crease like blundel did. Do you think this formula works. May be inone test but not the series.
Agreed, I thought back in '88 we might have had a chance, and yes, we took a test but in the other tests, the conditions and the strength of the Indian team combined as a formidable tag team to ensure we were trounced in the other tests......but in reality we have never gone close until now :)
Jarrod I want to thank you for the affection you show toward the NZ crickets team. Previous generations of Aussie cricketers and cricket commentators tended to be a bit patronising toward us but your genuine interest in how we're doing is super cool and even in this video when you're clearly very surprised (so are we!) you never once made it sound like we didn't deserve it, or tried to diminish our efforts somehow.
@@arnabiitmphy To clarify, NZ & Aus have parallels to Ind & Pak. Both are neighboring countries. In ALL sports we both play against each other; NZ vs. Aus is very much a hot rivalry. For the most part Australia are dominant because they are ruthlessly competitive, skillful, with a depth of population & galvanize themselves especially when faced with adversity or *chips-are-down* game conditions. A cricket example of this may be: -The amazing last wicket batting partnership between Hazlewood & Green of 116 runs. -Or that time Finch went berzerker-mode & chased 244 in a T20, from memory he hit like 40 or so from 13 balls. -Or the fact that NZ have single-handedly extended Alex Carey & Marcus Stoinis's playing careers.. Conversely, NZ are ruthlessly nice & allow opposition back into the game (THIS IS NOT MATCH FIXING sans Lou Vincent & Chris Cairns) It just seems we do not have the killer-instinct required for international sport at times, make do with what resources are available & try our best in a *punch-above-the-weight* boxer analogy (or Biblical: David vs. Goliath). Now this is understood, we can address the "You don't deserve it" comment. Which stems from Australia being so good at cricket, that NZ barely even get recognized as a touring destination. So much so, that despite a few blips on the cricketing radar (Like Hadlee 9-52 at the Gabba in 1985-86) NZ are never given any credit by the Australian public. I am sure there are Aussies seething by some recent sporting results & as a kiwi myself (that has lived in Australia before) I love to rub it in. Auckland FC: 1 Sydney FC: 0 The goal coming at the 97th minute. Netballer's Constellation Cup victories. NZ women T20 WC. Sure we did not beat Australia as such, just picked it from their trophy cabinet. All Black rugby having a 23-year long winning streak for the Bledisloe Cup. And of course, #UpDaWahs for 2025 NRL!
I was giggling about the series win (Great job Kiwis!), because of the video you posted last week about how hard it would be to beat this India team at home :)
A country with a population of just 5M, beating a cricketing giant with a population of 1.5B at their home. Not only that, they beat India in wtc final, 2019 wc semifinal, where it mattered a lot. What an achievement by this absolutely amazing sporting nation
The most amazing part is cricket is in a battle for second biggest sport in New Zealand. Rugby union will always be bigger but even league, football or netball could arguably be close. Just an all round great sporting nation
For a long long lonnngggg time, India were being saved by their lower-middle order. India have been in such situations multiple times over the past 3-4 years due to mediocre returns from their top order batsmen. But it was always someone - Pant, Jadeja, Ashwin, Axar - who'd just save the side and get them to a fighting position. And from there, from a position of perceived parity, India's bowlers would get the job done. Always. But this time, the lower order couldn't save them. Some exceptional performances, individually, had been papering over the cracks in the Indian team's performance for quite some time now. And with this series, it has truly been opened up. But in the most unexpected ways. Against the most unexpected opponents. Well played, New Zealand. Truly deserved their series win. One for the ages.
Underdogs put up a fight once again. Cheers to you, Kiwis. You have broken our hearts so many times, and yet we can never hate you. Always about the spirit of the game. Congratulations for giving us a reality check.
Friend, NZ have given India the motivation to destroy Australia in the upcoming Gavaskar-Border tour. This would also make Aus slip from 2nd place. If NZ can beat England & some other neutral results go NZ way.. Imagine *India vs NZ final rematch for the mace* 😍🏏🏆✨🎉
That ‘NZ Test wins in India’ graph really sums things up 😊 I don’t know how Santner bowled for pretty much 2 full innings unchanged in those hot conditions maintaining his line and length ‘with’ variation with his diet of white ball cricket. I guess it’s bowling in the nets for CSK for hours on end. Think of it Conway and Ravindra would have faced plenty of Jadeja in the nets there also.
Stop under-estimating NZ cricketers. I always felt santner could spin teams out, he finally gave his talent the justice. Also, NZ batters have one the best defensive techniques in the world. Almost all NZ batsmen look compact. Compare it to other nations where they have duckett's, pant's, marsh etc who play agricultural shots and very high risk cricket at many times. Nz batsmen don't. They batted better than india
As a India fan I now get the 2011 Indian test team vibe from this team, big names either not having the hunger anymore or skill set waning due to advance age.
Tendulkar was still putting centuries in SA conditions in 2011 at that age. He was also getting to 80s on Aus pitches in 2012. What tf has happened to Kohli? I think even Ranji spinners will make a mockery of him if he ever decides to play.
@@bikaskumarkundu2638 as far as I remember, Kohli had the best strike rate in comparison with other Indian batters in Tests & ODIs. You don't even have to go beyond 2020, look at his 2022 and early 2023 centuries. Whenever any other batter scored a century in the same match when Kohli did, Kohli had higher strike rate. He even had higher strike rate than Ishan Kishan in the match where Ishan scored an ODI 200. Kohli was looking so great in IPL 2024, suddenly he lost his touch completely. Kohli is so used to being the single dominant player of the team that he can't perform when others are calling the shots in the team.
@@chetanyasharma2502 Tendulkar was averaging nearly same in his last 3 calendar year 2011-13 as Rohit, Kohli and Rahul are doing now in their last 3 years. Its near around 35 runs per inning. For sachin that's whopping 35% below his career average. So one or two score here and there don't matter, he under performed for 3 straight years. Only Dravid played good in those years. Dravid averaged 48 scored 5 century and retired like a boss. He had one bad Australian series during that time an retired immediately. For rohit,kohli (RoKo), Sad part is while Sachin faced all prime Anderson, broad, Swan and Monty and made 35 runs per inning at probably 2-3 year older age then RoKo. RoKo are struggling with santner and part time bowler cum wicket keeper.
@@mikespearwood3914still a rugby game is more prone to upsets, one bad tackle or knock on could be enough, New Zealand won 3-0 in a test tour. I guess this win would be like if Scotland came from nowhere to win a tour in New Zealand
It’s interesting why not many are talking about the impact that Rangana Herath might have had on the New Zealand spin bowling attack. Their spin bowling in terms of accuracy, optimum speed and plans were absolutely outperformed the renowned and the most experienced Indian spin duo. This is an absolutely remarkable performance in a bizarre way given the odds. India needs reality checks like this from time to time to be better equipped for the upcoming big events.
Don't think so it has much to do with herath bcz it was only bcz of santner we lost the test match their other spinners were average, a lone spinner doing well credit can't be given to the entire bowling unit
This was a brilliant analysis, Jarrod. I would still rate NZ T20 W's winning as the best. I was watching Plimmer in recent days before the World Cup. She was usually getting runouts against England, but the way she batted was so magnificent to watch. She did not undermine the other Kiwi girls, they believed, and they won the Cup. It is not individual performance that counts, but the way the team works as one and plays. Kudos to both the men's and Women's teams.
I think more of Ego got them better, thinking they had smashed B'desh recently. I am not undermining NZ's performance; they were too good with Bat/Bowl, above all, Fielding. It is good to have a reality check once in a while. This time it was India's turn.
Just so that everyone knows. 2012 and 2004 Test series were involved with brilliant knocks which was not seen in this series. 190 from cook, 224 from pietersen. In this series special knocks were not there. 8-48 from lyon, 178* from steven smith was also not enough to win 2016-2017 BGT.
I am impressed by Tom Latham. I thought he was burden on them team looking at his perfromances from the previous tour and the current form. He stepped up big time. I expected Rachin to do well. I am unaware of Santner of test records, only know his IPL performance, so I thought he will be defensive bowler who will tie up one end, turns out he ran through tall batting order. Congratualations NZ for pulling off the series in a dominant fashion.
Step 1: Get good spinners Step 2: Get good fast bowlers Indian team can neither play on rank turners nor on seaming pitches anymore... They have become too used to flat pitches.
@@AdityaGupta-sn4vcisn't it ironic Warne used to look like , just an above average bowler in Indian pitches in 2000s , but nowadays , indian batters make average spinners look like warne
@@newaccount-cz6tb yeah like Matthew Kuhnemenn and even Todd murphy got fifers at ease who aren't even main picks for there first class teams 😭 , and even last time ajaz patel got 10 wickets in an innings like u can bring any spinner and he will get a 5 wicket haul in india
As an Indian, NZ is the team I would have least minded India's winning streak coming to an end against; you just have to admire their skill and hard work coming from a nation smaller a quarter of Mumbai.
"They didn't need their greatest batsman" Just goes to show a team is more than the sum of their parts. We need to (and have) fouind a way to get a few batsmen to fire even without our greatest. Our greatest can get injured. Our greatest can be dismissed cheaply. Our greatest can be out of form. Our greatest can have a technical flaw or inexperience. It shouldn't matter because collectively, somebody can take the reins and prove it's not just Williamson with 10 other players needed to complete a team. And it sets up a scenario that he can rest and recover and be the senior member to build the next generation, not the guy who has to rush back to fitness to carry his side.
NZ regardless of their form or execution never gives up. India is definitely not the team they were 10 years ago with players coming towards the end of their careers. NZ through sheer tenacity and skill beat a declining Indian side that probably needs to go through a transition.
Don't forget Mitch Santner said he learned from Sundar about how the pitch was playing and how to bowl on it. That pace variation helped him when otherwise he would've just gone through the motions. Ashwin and Jadeja did not pick up on that, they bowled what has typically worked, and it wasn't working for them. A bit of confidence, and a bit of training, helped with a sizable lead, allowed NZ batters to take them on and disrupt them, and they weren't the threat they typically were.
Santner has been a good and smart spinner when it comes to whiteball, weather it be 2016 WC match, his stint with CSK or the way he bowled in WCs in recent years. I mean a guy who CSK uses in non spin wickets has got to have skills, but doing the same in red ball is insane, when you avg 40+. Great performance by kiwis, they have done which has been absolutely impossible since the 2000. Yes, it Indian side had a lot of problems. But no one can take away a single thing from NZ. India has been relying on their lower order a lot in past years, and NZ was able to take their wickets quite fast in both the matches. The way Latham stood up in 2nd innings out of nowhere was incredible. The only team that has came close in recent time was Australia, and they almost pulled off a draw last year. Now they will fancy the same next time when they are here.
The answer is pretty simple and straightforward. When Ashwin and Jadeja fails, India also fails! With this duo India still managed to win matches when batting was average. Now Ash and Jadeja are well past their prime and team India collapses.
Not true. India still had better batting score. The current batting line up terrible, Ashwin only take wickets when there is some amount of cushion of runs.
The problem is not that they didn't bowl well, but they just couldn't save our ass in batting...indian batsmen have been freeloading on top of great bowling attack and batting contribution from allrounders and bowlers
@@rajatmahajan5352 Ashwin and Jadeja were just average in this test match. The only team closest to beat India in their backyard were Australia in 2017 and 2023.Both occasions Ashwin and Jadeja saved Indian team.Indian batting was terrible during England came in India during 2020-21.Ashwin, with assistance from Axar saved that time (Jadeja was injured out).
Yeah you are correct. India were so reliant on Jadeja and Ashwin for the last 5 years. Their brilliance masked the failure of top order batting. For Example Kohli is averaging horrible 32 in the last 5 years
Perhaps a video is long overdue on Indian batting collapses since Adelaide 36-9 I hardly recollect any sessions where India have batted without losing a wicket and remember multiple sessions where India has gone onto lose more than 3 wickets since that Adelaide collapse
@@chetanyasharma2502@chetanyasharma2502 I won't say he is rubbish, but he is clearly far behind the other fab3 in test cricket. Kohli needs to reinvent his batting ideology. He is trying too hard to get runs; instead, runs used to come naturally to him by spending time at the crease, running between the wickets, converting 1s to 2s, 2s to 3s.
@@dante7411I wouldn’t think it’s that anymore, but also cost of living is lower in India. Of course New Zealand has economic advantages here, but knowing people from both countries, the top 10% or so of people in India have a similar or better standard of living and that’s still over 100 million people.
I know that Mitch Satner has been bad in test cricket before but he’s always troubled Indian batsman. 2016 t20 World Cup, 2019 World Cup semi finals. Indians don’t play him well
Which modern day great indian batsman can play spin?? No one... Bcz they stopped playing Ranji trophy Bcz IPL mein paisa hain... Aur sare Mahan player hai My dog can spin and get this team all out under 100
@@avikdas6415 True. Kohli well could have been the 2nd greatest Indian Test batter after Tendulkar if he would have maintained that aggressive nature of 2018 and would have played domestic matches, as he is phenomenal in SA & Aus. I think a gully spinner is capable of making a mockery of him now.
From an Indian fan's perspective, it is interesting how the toss played a crucial role in bringing test series defeat... From recent memory, it was the 2023 WC & the first test of this series that are the most bizarre instances. Overall, it seems like the people who were betting that India will do the usual by winning the series 3-0 were disappointed but the bookies taking the bet must be delighted, don't you think? As a bookie, I need to just influence the pitch and possibly toss, and the rest will fall in place.
India collectively as a team thought they could push over NZ and use it as a preparation for BGT. It is the over confidence and arrogance that did them. Forget beating in India, Man to man Ind can win against NZ in NZ as well with this team. So it was very simple in my opinion, NZ knew what we were up to and played it well. They knew we were playing on aggressive attitude instead of application. Test cricket needs application first, understanding situation and time and then an aggressive attitude. NZ played well against India's ego. As much as I'm gutted, I'm delighted that this has happened especially before BGT. It's a reality check. Well done NZ and thank you for reminding us that you can't let your guard down. What now on the 3rd test.....Well Ind will win and order will be restored. But nothing can take away this monumental achievement by NZ.
India can't win in NZ especially rn. Other than Virat who play good pace, bit of Rahul, Pant and Jadeja who is good with the conditions of NZ? Even Virat avg littlr above 30 in NZ. The last time India won there was in 2009 or 2010. In seaming condition, Jaiswal, sarfaraz, Ashwin, Rohit will struggle a lot.
@@Himanshu_K17 well going by statistics Tom Bundle, Glenn Philips, Will Young and to an extent Devon Conway and Tom Latham didn't had any chance against Indian spinners in India esp after their 2-0 series defeat against SL in SL. So I guess it's important to hold our horses of statistics for a sec and lets just appreciate NZ for finding a way even when all odds are against them. To be fair, there was a certain amount of involvement of luck too was there esp in first test (don't want to discuss much as all of us know that fact) and even to certain amount in this test too (who'd thought Ashwin and Aizaz Patel will be outclassed by Washington Sundar and Mitch Santner 😀). I think it's important to understand that in modern day cricket it's not always about stats and convention. Rather it become more like finding a way to do things which eventually works out.
0:25 Exactly what happened with bangladesh. They managed to take india down to 6 in just 150 runs or so. But then Jadeja and Ashwin turned the entire game on its head
I suspect the way to beat India in India is to hope they prepare a pitch that ends up neutralising the conditions. This one turned so sharply and unpredictably that it made Mitchell Santner into a matchwinner, whereas a 'normal' pitch, you would think, would favour Ashwin and Jadeja (but, no sour grapes... NZ played much better in the conditions with both bat and ball). Similar vibes to the 2023 world cup final... a bizarre, slow wicket closed the gap between the teams whereas a 'normal' one likely would not have. That being said, even as an India fan, I'm delighted for NZ. Every time a non-big-three team beats one of the big three in an away test series is something all cricket lovers can celebrate.
Newzealand has always been India' s nemesis- be it semifinal upsets or WTC, but this test series win is something else, this is Newzealand's equivalent to India' s Gabbatoir victory
I have to say as a Kiwi, India is an amazing cricket nation, but when results don’t go their way the players and the fans show great character and humility.
In the last 50 years, England is the only tourists team to win as high as 4 series of tests hosted in India precisely in 1976-77, 1979-80, 1984-85 and 2012 with due credit to Derek Underwood, John Lever, Dennis Amiss, Ian Botham, Neil Foster, Mike Gatting, Graeme Fowler, Alastair Cook and Graeme Swann.
@@Aman-nk5uq bilateral test series can have minimum of just 1 test and the two teams got to win or save that only one. Even India vs Australia test series of 1996 had only 1 test hosted at Delhi by India.
Kiwi's have always been up for a fight, but instead of die trying and going down in flames, they end up winning with their 3rd string team. They have quite a good recent one-to-one record against India in Tests and ODIs and the opposite in the other format that shall not be named, where India dominates.
Amazing video, it makes me 😂 laugh, this series gave many moments to laugh and have fun, I laugh a lot when Virat showed us how to clean bowled on juicey fultoss, I called my friend (big virat fan) 😂 and laughed together. Cricket is funny game😂
I as probably the greatest Kohli fan laughed as well. The guy is completely finished against spin. Tendulkar sure was a Test monster ahead of his time.
This is my opinion but i feel nz batters have one of the best techniques and defence in the world. I have seen Australia, Eng & SA blown away in india but i never expected this NZ team to he bloen away, given how sure they are with their defence. I always knew santner can spin big...i rember that 2016 1st T20 WC match where NZ skittled india for 78 on a rank turner. Everyone under-estimates NZ a lot. NZ before this SL series loss had drawn their last 2 series in SL. They beat pakistan in UAE in 2018 and Drawn in 2023. NZ just suffers a lot in SA & Aus. They play well everywhere else. Like i said earlier, NZ have better batsmen to survive in these conditions compared to SA, Eng & Aus. Not to forget that they batted better than india too this time around.
Nz also won a series, albeit at home vs that strong W.I.team... with some dubious umpiring. Also beat a dominant Oz, in oz in that series where hadlee took 9 wickets in an innings.
Drawn series against Waugh’s all conquering ugly Australian side 2001, where arguably could’ve / should’ve won, more dubious umpiring in Perth, and Brisbane where had to endure 13th man D Harper ffs 🤦♂️
One of the reason why indian spinners didn't pick too many wickets and it may have gone unnoticed is also bcz of defensive field setting of rohit sharma and medicore slip catching by slip fielders and close in fielders including wicket keeper.
New Zealand winning Test Series in India is no joke they did it in hard way since they are written off by many people after 2-0 defeat against Sri Lanka in last month and New Zealand conquered India against all odds and whitewash is very much possibility
As a kiwi I'm still trying to process this series. Santner and southee must have been close to being dropped prior to these games. Unbelievable turnaround
I think it also depends on the mentality. Jarrod has said multiple times how Bangladesh were more suited and structured to win in India than nz. But did they really believe they could? There has to be more to it than that to beat a juggernaut like India at home.
I thought this series was going to be seriously embarrassing for our team. I'm still trying to understand how it happened. Is Mitchell Santner trying new tricks with the ball? He sure is a talented T20 / ODI player, but he's just never been attacking enough to be a decent test spin bowler.
newzealand got lucky with the tosses...the stars aligned perfectly for them...lot of freakish things happened...like banglore pitch on first day due rain....rohit sharma getting bowled with ball rolling back....virat kohli getting out on last ball...it was destined for them the way it was for india in australia in last tour....NZ will get proper thrashing in the next game in mumbai...pretty sure
As an Indian I am glad we got outplayed and exposed by kiwis, if it was Eng or Aus winning over us it would go unnoticed. As kendrick said - “There’s no big 3, it’s just big me” This has been Kiwis month.
Most ardent followers of India are not surprised after Sri Lanka series. Many expected Rohit and Kohli not to perform well. Congratulations.. Australia series is expected to going against India. Overconfident and lack of footwork did unsettle our batsman.
NZ have a chance to whitewash India 3-0 in the cricket Australia 4-0 in the netball and clean sweep the NH sides in rugby win back to back tests against Australia in league all within a month not to mention they already did a 3 peat in the americas cup and won the T20 world cup too this month what a great little sporting nation.
It was down to 2 things: (1) India's rain-affected win over Bangladesh convinced themselves that no matter what the situation of a match, they could turn on the after burners late and still win. (2) NZ's twin losses to an average SL team, and then further lacking their best batsman. Add these together and India took NZ for granted, which _always_ for sportsmen leads to a lack of intensity, a taking things for granted. NZ is up 2-0 because they've outworked the Indians. Also another factor: India's players are stale after playing so much cricket. Rohit Sharma has passed 8 runs only twice in his last 8 consecutive Test innings _at home._ In his previous 24 innings at home prior to this latest stretch, he'd passed 8 runs 23 times. The two teams to hold him to 8 or less? Bangladesh & NZ. Opponents against which he scored 9+ 23 out of 24 times? England twice & Australia twice. Cliff notes for the tl;dr crowd: India is stale, and took NZ for granted.
I see a bit differently. The big difference is batting. Too many of India batters did not do well. New Zealand’s did. Bowling wise, I think both teams were sort of close. New Zealand performed well (maybe over performed a touch) and India was decent… not great. It was India batting that let them down.
India's ageing stars played atrocious shots often, the younger upcoming stars bore the pressure and failed, and their two star spinners, Ashwin and Jadeja are ageing and more predictable. The conditions were favourable to NZ in the 1st Test? No Jarrod, India won the toss and imploded due to a mixture of shit shots and seriously sensational catching. Even though India fought back in the 2nd innings, Sarfaraz and Pant were very lucky at times, and then India collapsed again. You're spot on with Test 2's comments ... Mitch Santner had a stunning spike of success akin to Steve O'Keefe's 12 wickets in Feb 2017 at the same venue Pune. The Kiwi batters built enough consistently to get enough runs on the board and it was ironic that a player of Indian heritage Ravindra, set up the 1st Test win. You don't know how NZ won? 1. NZ acclimatized to the sub-continent with prior series; 2. India's batting was woeful (T20-Test mix of shots); 3. NZ has a seasoned group of players who have bonded without Williamson and Boult; 4. India has half a team that is past its best (Rohit, Kohli, Ashwin, Jadeja, Rahul); 5. Two freaky events - India's implosion of 46 coupled with four brilliant catches, and Santner's sudden explosion. India needs to rebuild and New Zealand need to believe.
india's loss is good for world cricket. it somehow restores faith that teams can still win away series in india, making future series in india quite interesting.
Pretty offensive to keep saying the kiwis are punching above their weight. That was true of a by gone era but now they have a team stacked with world class or very good cricketers
That's the point, if India were beaten by Australia or England at home, we could've processed that but getting beaten by NZ in tests after sri Lanka smashed them for 2-0 with one innings win. No way. Can't accept it
My grandpa can bowl and this team India will not b able to play him... 1. INTERNAL POLITICS 2. Out of form players 3. Unable to play spin And 4. Ofcourse there is no Sachin Tendulkar 🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿
Kohli averaged well below 30 in 4 of the 5 previous years. Just let that sink in. India had been carrying a player in a position which is most important for far too long just on his label. I don't think any player had a form slump as long and as big as him.
Indians are pride themelf clever and cunning. if you bring another tall cunning clever spinner indians will be at sea. NZ exposed india's game. The key for me rourke presence. 6' 4 tall and smart and clever and on target all the time. He is the real treasure nz got. Why nz could not win in Srilanka? TIM Southee captaining them. if latham was captain , he would have routed srilanka as well.
Its too much of a stretch had not conditions favored in the 1st test to NZ things would have been different & with India batting decline was also one the reason..
New Zealand can be considered the most successful sporting nation in the world. To win 10 gold medals at the Olympics (and 20 total medals) and be one of the best in both cricket and rugby, two of the most popular sports in the world while having a population of around 5 million is insane.

Agreed, I thought back in '88 we might have had a chance, and yes, we took a test but in the other tests, the conditions and the strength of the Indian team combined as a formidable tag team to ensure we were trounced in the other tests......but in reality we have never gone close until now :)
Jarrod I want to thank you for the affection you show toward the NZ crickets team. Previous generations of Aussie cricketers and cricket commentators tended to be a bit patronising toward us but your genuine interest in how we're doing is super cool and even in this video when you're clearly very surprised (so are we!) you never once made it sound like we didn't deserve it, or tried to diminish our efforts somehow.
You guys deserve every bit of it, you played like champions. I don't understand why anyone would think "you don't deserve it"
@@strandedinparadise8202 Jarrod Kimber is the GOAT for a reason 😭
@@arnabiitmphy To clarify, NZ & Aus have parallels to Ind & Pak. Both are neighboring countries.
In ALL sports we both play against each other; NZ vs. Aus is very much a hot rivalry.
For the most part Australia are dominant because they are ruthlessly competitive, skillful, with a depth of population & galvanize themselves especially when faced with adversity or *chips-are-down* game conditions.
A cricket example of this may be:
-The amazing last wicket batting partnership between Hazlewood & Green of 116 runs.
-Or that time Finch went berzerker-mode & chased 244 in a T20, from memory he hit like 40 or so from 13 balls.
-Or the fact that NZ have single-handedly extended Alex Carey & Marcus Stoinis's playing careers..
Conversely, NZ are ruthlessly nice & allow opposition back into the game
(THIS IS NOT MATCH FIXING sans Lou Vincent & Chris Cairns)
It just seems we do not have the killer-instinct required for international sport at times, make do with what resources are available & try our best in a *punch-above-the-weight* boxer analogy (or Biblical: David vs. Goliath).
Now this is understood, we can address the "You don't deserve it" comment.
Which stems from Australia being so good at cricket, that NZ barely even get recognized as a touring destination.
So much so, that despite a few blips on the cricketing radar (Like Hadlee 9-52 at the Gabba in 1985-86) NZ are never given any credit by the Australian public. I am sure there are Aussies seething by some recent sporting results & as a kiwi myself (that has lived in Australia before) I love to rub it in.

@@FunnyFunFunTime Why are you using the A League soccer results as patriotism?
I was giggling about the series win (Great job Kiwis!), because of the video you posted last week about how hard it would be to beat this India team at home :)
A country with a population of just 5M, beating a cricketing giant with a population of 1.5B at their home. Not only that, they beat India in wtc final, 2019 wc semifinal, where it mattered a lot. What an achievement by this absolutely amazing sporting nation
The most amazing part is cricket is in a battle for second biggest sport in New Zealand. Rugby union will always be bigger but even league, football or netball could arguably be close. Just an all round great sporting nation
It's series like this that remind how Beautiful test cricket really is
We just need more Tests
most teams should play same amount as England
For a long long lonnngggg time, India were being saved by their lower-middle order.
India have been in such situations multiple times over the past 3-4 years due to mediocre returns from their top order batsmen. But it was always someone - Pant, Jadeja, Ashwin, Axar - who'd just save the side and get them to a fighting position. And from there, from a position of perceived parity, India's bowlers would get the job done. Always.
But this time, the lower order couldn't save them. Some exceptional performances, individually, had been papering over the cracks in the Indian team's performance for quite some time now.
And with this series, it has truly been opened up. But in the most unexpected ways. Against the most unexpected opponents.
Well played, New Zealand. Truly deserved their series win. One for the ages.
Underdogs put up a fight once again. Cheers to you, Kiwis. You have broken our hearts so many times, and yet we can never hate you. Always about the spirit of the game. Congratulations for giving us a reality check.
Friend, NZ have given India the motivation to destroy Australia in the upcoming Gavaskar-Border tour. This would also make Aus slip from 2nd place.
If NZ can beat England & some other neutral results go NZ way..
Imagine *India vs NZ final rematch for the mace*
😍🏏🏆✨🎉
very gracious of you.
That ‘NZ Test wins in India’ graph really sums things up 😊
I don’t know how Santner bowled for pretty much 2 full innings unchanged in those hot conditions maintaining his line and length ‘with’ variation with his diet of white ball cricket. I guess it’s bowling in the nets for CSK for hours on end.
Think of it Conway and Ravindra would have faced plenty of Jadeja in the nets there also.
Stop under-estimating NZ cricketers. I always felt santner could spin teams out, he finally gave his talent the justice.
Also, NZ batters have one the best defensive techniques in the world. Almost all NZ batsmen look compact. Compare it to other nations where they have duckett's, pant's, marsh etc who play agricultural shots and very high risk cricket at many times. Nz batsmen don't. They batted better than india
By playing better than the home team.
Simple but effective.
As a India fan I now get the 2011 Indian test team vibe from this team, big names either not having the hunger anymore or skill set waning due to advance age.
Tendulkar was still putting centuries in SA conditions in 2011 at that age. He was also getting to 80s on Aus pitches in 2012. What tf has happened to Kohli? I think even Ranji spinners will make a mockery of him if he ever decides to play.
@@chetanyasharma2502 in his quest to score runs at a higher strike rate, he has lost his technique. Kinda like Babar Azam but to a lesser extent.
@@bikaskumarkundu2638 as far as I remember, Kohli had the best strike rate in comparison with other Indian batters in Tests & ODIs. You don't even have to go beyond 2020, look at his 2022 and early 2023 centuries. Whenever any other batter scored a century in the same match when Kohli did, Kohli had higher strike rate. He even had higher strike rate than Ishan Kishan in the match where Ishan scored an ODI 200. Kohli was looking so great in IPL 2024, suddenly he lost his touch completely. Kohli is so used to being the single dominant player of the team that he can't perform when others are calling the shots in the team.
@@chetanyasharma2502 Tendulkar was averaging nearly same in his last 3 calendar year 2011-13 as Rohit, Kohli and Rahul are doing now in their last 3 years. Its near around 35 runs per inning. For sachin that's whopping 35% below his career average. So one or two score here and there don't matter, he under performed for 3 straight years. Only Dravid played good in those years. Dravid averaged 48 scored 5 century and retired like a boss. He had one bad Australian series during that time an retired immediately.
For rohit,kohli (RoKo), Sad part is while Sachin faced all prime Anderson, broad, Swan and Monty and made 35 runs per inning at probably 2-3 year older age then RoKo. RoKo are struggling with santner and part time bowler cum wicket keeper.
also well done rangana herath as well
Huge win. Equivalent would be Scotland or Wales beating the All Blacks at Eden Park.
Scotland has never beaten NZ in RU, so that'll be a lot more significant than this.
1953 will slowly become 1966
@@mikespearwood3914still a rugby game is more prone to upsets, one bad tackle or knock on could be enough, New Zealand won 3-0 in a test tour. I guess this win would be like if Scotland came from nowhere to win a tour in New Zealand
It’s interesting why not many are talking about the impact that Rangana Herath might have had on the New Zealand spin bowling attack. Their spin bowling in terms of accuracy, optimum speed and plans were absolutely outperformed the renowned and the most experienced Indian spin duo. This is an absolutely remarkable performance in a bizarre way given the odds. India needs reality checks like this from time to time to be better equipped for the upcoming big events.
Don't think so it has much to do with herath bcz it was only bcz of santner we lost the test match their other spinners were average, a lone spinner doing well credit can't be given to the entire bowling unit
@@sumbdiGood point
This was a brilliant analysis, Jarrod. I would still rate NZ T20 W's winning as the best. I was watching Plimmer in recent days before the World Cup. She was usually getting runouts against England, but the way she batted was so magnificent to watch. She did not undermine the other Kiwi girls, they believed, and they won the Cup. It is not individual performance that counts, but the way the team works as one and plays. Kudos to both the men's and Women's teams.
True
I think the indian team got overconfident , talking about the bgt and the WTC final acting like this series was won already .
I think more of Ego got them better, thinking they had smashed B'desh recently. I am not undermining NZ's performance; they were too good with Bat/Bowl, above all, Fielding. It is good to have a reality check once in a while. This time it was India's turn.
India will be routed 5-0 in australia
We went unprepared, whereas nz is completely prepared and they what and how to bowl for exactly everyone in our team
@@kittyind Got better of them*
Just so that everyone knows. 2012 and 2004 Test series were involved with brilliant knocks which was not seen in this series. 190 from cook, 224 from pietersen. In this series special knocks were not there. 8-48 from lyon, 178* from steven smith was also not enough to win 2016-2017 BGT.
I am impressed by Tom Latham. I thought he was burden on them team looking at his perfromances from the previous tour and the current form. He stepped up big time. I expected Rachin to do well. I am unaware of Santner of test records, only know his IPL performance, so I thought he will be defensive bowler who will tie up one end, turns out he ran through tall batting order. Congratualations NZ for pulling off the series in a dominant fashion.
Step 1: Get good spinners
Step 2: Get good fast bowlers
Indian team can neither play on rank turners nor on seaming pitches anymore... They have become too used to flat pitches.

As an Indian, NZ is the team I would have least minded India's winning streak coming to an end against; you just have to admire their skill and hard work coming from a nation smaller a quarter of Mumbai.
As a kiwi, I love how passionate, kind and knowledgeable Indian fans are towards their team and ours ❤
Looks like they prepared for the India series and reaped the rewards. The England team could learn a thing or two from that
Totally deserving win for,"The New Zealand" Hat's off
"They didn't need their greatest batsman"
Just goes to show a team is more than the sum of their parts. We need to (and have) fouind a way to get a few batsmen to fire even without our greatest. Our greatest can get injured. Our greatest can be dismissed cheaply. Our greatest can be out of form. Our greatest can have a technical flaw or inexperience. It shouldn't matter because collectively, somebody can take the reins and prove it's not just Williamson with 10 other players needed to complete a team. And it sets up a scenario that he can rest and recover and be the senior member to build the next generation, not the guy who has to rush back to fitness to carry his side.
NZ regardless of their form or execution never gives up. India is definitely not the team they were 10 years ago with players coming towards the end of their careers. NZ through sheer tenacity and skill beat a declining Indian side that probably needs to go through a transition.
Loving all these upsets we are getting in cricket these days!
Don't forget Mitch Santner said he learned from Sundar about how the pitch was playing and how to bowl on it. That pace variation helped him when otherwise he would've just gone through the motions. Ashwin and Jadeja did not pick up on that, they bowled what has typically worked, and it wasn't working for them. A bit of confidence, and a bit of training, helped with a sizable lead, allowed NZ batters to take them on and disrupt them, and they weren't the threat they typically were.
Mitch Santner is a good bowler, when the Aussies toured NZ Nathan Lyon was surprised Santner wasn’t picked so if Nathan rates him he must be good
Absolutely loved it your analogy your commentary basically the whole video just loved it thanks man
Santner has been a good and smart spinner when it comes to whiteball, weather it be 2016 WC match, his stint with CSK or the way he bowled in WCs in recent years. I mean a guy who CSK uses in non spin wickets has got to have skills, but doing the same in red ball is insane, when you avg 40+.
Great performance by kiwis, they have done which has been absolutely impossible since the 2000. Yes, it Indian side had a lot of problems. But no one can take away a single thing from NZ. India has been relying on their lower order a lot in past years, and NZ was able to take their wickets quite fast in both the matches. The way Latham stood up in 2nd innings out of nowhere was incredible. The only team that has came close in recent time was Australia, and they almost pulled off a draw last year. Now they will fancy the same next time when they are here.
The answer is pretty simple and straightforward. When Ashwin and Jadeja fails, India also fails! With this duo India still managed to win matches when batting was average. Now Ash and Jadeja are well past their prime and team India collapses.
Rubbish Indian bowlers bowled well Indian batters are problem
Not true. India still had better batting score. The current batting line up terrible, Ashwin only take wickets when there is some amount of cushion of runs.
The problem is not that they didn't bowl well, but they just couldn't save our ass in batting...indian batsmen have been freeloading on top of great bowling attack and batting contribution from allrounders and bowlers
@@rajatmahajan5352 Ashwin and Jadeja were just average in this test match. The only team closest to beat India in their backyard were Australia in 2017 and 2023.Both occasions Ashwin and Jadeja saved Indian team.Indian batting was terrible during England came in India during 2020-21.Ashwin, with assistance from Axar saved that time (Jadeja was injured out).
Yeah you are correct. India were so reliant on Jadeja and Ashwin for the last 5 years. Their brilliance masked the failure of top order batting. For Example Kohli is averaging horrible 32 in the last 5 years
NZ Women's cricket T20 World Cup, NZ America's Cup sailing and now the NZ Men's India cricket series win.
What a NZ Year!!!
Perhaps a video is long overdue on Indian batting collapses since Adelaide 36-9
I hardly recollect any sessions where India have batted without losing a wicket and remember multiple sessions where India has gone onto lose more than 3 wickets since that Adelaide collapse
Kohli hasn't played a single match-winning innings in test cricket in the last 4 years.
Kohli can't play spin apparently. He still does well in Aus & SA, but apart from them he is a rubbish batter everywhere. It's just Fab3 now.
@@chetanyasharma2502@chetanyasharma2502 I won't say he is rubbish, but he is clearly far behind the other fab3 in test cricket. Kohli needs to reinvent his batting ideology. He is trying too hard to get runs; instead, runs used to come naturally to him by spending time at the crease, running between the wickets, converting 1s to 2s, 2s to 3s.
Jarrod you finally got the team which won against India in India... Actually this team was not that...

@@avikdas6415 True. Kohli well could have been the 2nd greatest Indian Test batter after Tendulkar if he would have maintained that aggressive nature of 2018 and would have played domestic matches, as he is phenomenal in SA & Aus. I think a gully spinner is capable of making a mockery of him now.
From an Indian fan's perspective, it is interesting how the toss played a crucial role in bringing test series defeat...
From recent memory, it was the 2023 WC & the first test of this series that are the most bizarre instances. Overall, it seems like the people who were betting that India will do the usual by winning the series 3-0 were disappointed but the bookies taking the bet must be delighted, don't you think? As a bookie, I need to just influence the pitch and possibly toss, and the rest will fall in place.
I remember letting out a big sigh having seen their Indian tour, mid series here in Sri Lanka. We sure did catch them at the right time
India collectively as a team thought they could push over NZ and use it as a preparation for BGT. It is the over confidence and arrogance that did them. Forget beating in India, Man to man Ind can win against NZ in NZ as well with this team. So it was very simple in my opinion, NZ knew what we were up to and played it well. They knew we were playing on aggressive attitude instead of application. Test cricket needs application first, understanding situation and time and then an aggressive attitude. NZ played well against India's ego. As much as I'm gutted, I'm delighted that this has happened especially before BGT. It's a reality check. Well done NZ and thank you for reminding us that you can't let your guard down.
What now on the 3rd test.....Well Ind will win and order will be restored. But nothing can take away this monumental achievement by NZ.
India would get hammered in NZ couldnt even win on their home ground with NZ missing their best batter and bowler
@@Trajan2401I would love to answer this after the Mumbai Test. 😐
India can't win in NZ especially rn. Other than Virat who play good pace, bit of Rahul, Pant and Jadeja who is good with the conditions of NZ? Even Virat avg littlr above 30 in NZ. The last time India won there was in 2009 or 2010. In seaming condition, Jaiswal, sarfaraz, Ashwin, Rohit will struggle a lot.
@@Himanshu_K17 well going by statistics Tom Bundle, Glenn Philips, Will Young and to an extent Devon Conway and Tom Latham didn't had any chance against Indian spinners in India esp after their 2-0 series defeat against SL in SL. So I guess it's important to hold our horses of statistics for a sec and lets just appreciate NZ for finding a way even when all odds are against them. To be fair, there was a certain amount of involvement of luck too was there esp in first test (don't want to discuss much as all of us know that fact) and even to certain amount in this test too (who'd thought Ashwin and Aizaz Patel will be outclassed by Washington Sundar and Mitch Santner 😀).
I think it's important to understand that in modern day cricket it's not always about stats and convention. Rather it become more like finding a way to do things which eventually works out.
India weren't overconfident or arrogant. They were simply outplayed by a better team. This NZ team is better skill wise in every department than India
0:25 Exactly what happened with bangladesh. They managed to take india down to 6 in just 150 runs or so. But then Jadeja and Ashwin turned the entire game on its head
I suspect the way to beat India in India is to hope they prepare a pitch that ends up neutralising the conditions. This one turned so sharply and unpredictably that it made Mitchell Santner into a matchwinner, whereas a 'normal' pitch, you would think, would favour Ashwin and Jadeja (but, no sour grapes... NZ played much better in the conditions with both bat and ball). Similar vibes to the 2023 world cup final... a bizarre, slow wicket closed the gap between the teams whereas a 'normal' one likely would not have. That being said, even as an India fan, I'm delighted for NZ. Every time a non-big-three team beats one of the big three in an away test series is something all cricket lovers can celebrate.
You're not big three mate with your zero WTCs. Us kiwis are happy to grow test cricket in 2nd tier nations like India though.
Newzealand has always been India' s nemesis- be it semifinal upsets or WTC, but this test series win is something else, this is Newzealand's equivalent to India' s Gabbatoir victory
I have to say as a Kiwi, India is an amazing cricket nation, but when results don’t go their way the players and the fans show great character and humility.
In the last 50 years, England is the only tourists team to win as high as 4 series of tests hosted in India precisely in 1976-77, 1979-80, 1984-85 and 2012 with due credit to Derek Underwood, John Lever, Dennis Amiss, Ian Botham, Neil Foster, Mike Gatting, Graeme Fowler, Alastair Cook and Graeme Swann.

@@Aman-nk5uq bilateral test series can have minimum of just 1 test and the two teams got to win or save that only one. Even India vs Australia test series of 1996 had only 1 test hosted at Delhi by India.
Mitchell Santner is a great legend for world cricket 😍💖
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Legend is such a small word for today's generation.
Kiwi's have always been up for a fight, but instead of die trying and going down in flames, they end up winning with their 3rd string team. They have quite a good recent one-to-one record against India in Tests and ODIs and the opposite in the other format that shall not be named, where India dominates.
Amazing video, it makes me 😂 laugh, this series gave many moments to laugh and have fun, I laugh a lot when Virat showed us how to clean bowled on juicey fultoss, I called my friend (big virat fan) 😂 and laughed together. Cricket is funny game😂
I as probably the greatest Kohli fan laughed as well. The guy is completely finished against spin. Tendulkar sure was a Test monster ahead of his time.
This is my opinion but i feel nz batters have one of the best techniques and defence in the world. I have seen Australia, Eng & SA blown away in india but i never expected this NZ team to he bloen away, given how sure they are with their defence. I always knew santner can spin big...i rember that 2016 1st T20 WC match where NZ skittled india for 78 on a rank turner.
Everyone under-estimates NZ a lot. NZ before this SL series loss had drawn their last 2 series in SL. They beat pakistan in UAE in 2018 and Drawn in 2023.
NZ just suffers a lot in SA & Aus. They play well everywhere else. Like i said earlier, NZ have better batsmen to survive in these conditions compared to SA, Eng & Aus. Not to forget that they batted better than india too this time around.
tbf they haven’t played in South Africa since 2016
Nz also won a series, albeit at home vs that strong W.I.team... with some dubious umpiring.
Also beat a dominant Oz, in oz in that series where hadlee took 9 wickets in an innings.
Drawn series against Waugh’s all conquering ugly Australian side 2001, where arguably could’ve / should’ve won, more dubious umpiring in Perth, and Brisbane where had to endure 13th man D Harper ffs 🤦♂️
Ashwin's how to play spin in India video backfired so bad.. No Axar and they all crumble
One of the reason why indian spinners didn't pick too many wickets and it may have gone unnoticed is also bcz of defensive field setting of rohit sharma and medicore slip catching by slip fielders and close in fielders including wicket keeper.
Love only for Newzealand Cricket 😍💖
New Zealand winning Test Series in India is no joke they did it in hard way since they are written off by many people after 2-0 defeat against Sri Lanka in last month and New Zealand conquered India against all odds and whitewash is very much possibility
Top results for NZ cricket? 1985-86 New Zealand tour of Australia would have to be right up there.
As a kiwi I'm still trying to process this series. Santner and southee must have been close to being dropped prior to these games. Unbelievable turnaround
brilliant summation...
Basically you need a left hander opener captain.
Shame on dimuth Karunaratne & dean elgar 😂
I think it also depends on the mentality. Jarrod has said multiple times how Bangladesh were more suited and structured to win in India than nz. But did they really believe they could? There has to be more to it than that to beat a juggernaut like India at home.
Don't forget NZ also defended the America's Cup yachting.
Plenty of ticker mate...luv your reviews!!
I think this was at least comparable to India beating aus in gabba in the 2021 tour
Of course it is
I thought this series was going to be seriously embarrassing for our team. I'm still trying to understand how it happened. Is Mitchell Santner trying new tricks with the ball? He sure is a talented T20 / ODI player, but he's just never been attacking enough to be a decent test spin bowler.
This is the biggest upset in Test cricket history.
newzealand got lucky with the tosses...the stars aligned perfectly for them...lot of freakish things happened...like banglore pitch on first day due rain....rohit sharma getting bowled with ball rolling back....virat kohli getting out on last ball...it was destined for them the way it was for india in australia in last tour....NZ will get proper thrashing in the next game in mumbai...pretty sure
lol they lost the toss in the first test. Rohit made the stupid decision to bat first in overcast conditions
Also the 2nd test was played on a spinning track and still India got thrashed. Just accept India have massively underperformed
If only nz had a media as big as say England, we would hear a lot more about them.
Well done NZ. What a series.
New Zealand is india's cryptonite. Just check their results against India in icc tournaments, both limited overs and five days cricket.
As an Indian I am glad we got outplayed and exposed by kiwis, if it was Eng or Aus winning over us it would go unnoticed.
As kendrick said - “There’s no big 3, it’s just big me”
This has been Kiwis month.
Most ardent followers of India are not surprised after Sri Lanka series. Many expected Rohit and Kohli not to perform well. Congratulations.. Australia series is expected to going against India. Overconfident and lack of footwork did unsettle our batsman.
Best time for test matches.
NZ have a chance to whitewash India 3-0 in the cricket Australia 4-0 in the netball and clean sweep the NH sides in rugby win back to back tests against Australia in league all within a month not to mention they already did a 3 peat in the americas cup and won the T20 world cup too this month what a great little sporting nation.
Didn’t Australia’s record last from 94-2009??
It was down to 2 things:
(1) India's rain-affected win over Bangladesh convinced themselves that no matter what the situation of a match, they could turn on the after burners late and still win.
(2) NZ's twin losses to an average SL team, and then further lacking their best batsman.
Add these together and India took NZ for granted, which _always_ for sportsmen leads to a lack of intensity, a taking things for granted. NZ is up 2-0 because they've outworked the Indians. Also another factor: India's players are stale after playing so much cricket. Rohit Sharma has passed 8 runs only twice in his last 8 consecutive Test innings _at home._ In his previous 24 innings at home prior to this latest stretch, he'd passed 8 runs 23 times. The two teams to hold him to 8 or less? Bangladesh & NZ. Opponents against which he scored 9+ 23 out of 24 times? England twice & Australia twice.
Cliff notes for the tl;dr crowd: India is stale, and took NZ for granted.
I would assume that after losing the 1st test at least IND wouldn't take NZ for granted
East or West.....BLACKCAPS is the best 😍💖💝

Their batting is weaker with Virat out of form and no Pujara-Rahane to bail them out of touch situations.
I see a bit differently. The big difference is batting. Too many of India batters did not do well. New Zealand’s did.
Bowling wise, I think both teams were sort of close. New Zealand performed well (maybe over performed a touch) and India was decent… not great. It was India batting that let them down.
India's ageing stars played atrocious shots often, the younger upcoming stars bore the pressure and failed, and their two star spinners, Ashwin and Jadeja are ageing and more predictable. The conditions were favourable to NZ in the 1st Test? No Jarrod, India won the toss and imploded due to a mixture of shit shots and seriously sensational catching. Even though India fought back in the 2nd innings, Sarfaraz and Pant were very lucky at times, and then India collapsed again. You're spot on with Test 2's comments ... Mitch Santner had a stunning spike of success akin to Steve O'Keefe's 12 wickets in Feb 2017 at the same venue Pune. The Kiwi batters built enough consistently to get enough runs on the board and it was ironic that a player of Indian heritage Ravindra, set up the 1st Test win. You don't know how NZ won? 1. NZ acclimatized to the sub-continent with prior series; 2. India's batting was woeful (T20-Test mix of shots); 3. NZ has a seasoned group of players who have bonded without Williamson and Boult; 4. India has half a team that is past its best (Rohit, Kohli, Ashwin, Jadeja, Rahul); 5. Two freaky events - India's implosion of 46 coupled with four brilliant catches, and Santner's sudden explosion. India needs to rebuild and New Zealand need to believe.
india's loss is good for world cricket. it somehow restores faith that teams can still win away series in india, making future series in india quite interesting.
Pretty offensive to keep saying the kiwis are punching above their weight. That was true of a by gone era but now they have a team stacked with world class or very good cricketers
I don't think they have all star player... its just ur biasness that they played well & India batting on decline..,
@@RavishSingh-z1r Williamson, Ravindra, are not all star then
@@Stowerslemalu 2or 3 world class Player other r good cricketer...
That's the point, if India were beaten by Australia or England at home, we could've processed that but getting beaten by NZ in tests after sri Lanka smashed them for 2-0 with one innings win. No way. Can't accept it
My grandpa can bowl and this team India will not b able to play him...
1. INTERNAL POLITICS
2. Out of form players
3. Unable to play spin
And 4. Ofcourse there is no Sachin Tendulkar 🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿
With bits n pieces cricketers
Mitchell santner's Instagram says fulltime golfer and part time cricketer 😅😅
Kohli averaged well below 30 in 4 of the 5 previous years. Just let that sink in.
India had been carrying a player in a position which is most important for far too long just on his label.
I don't think any player had a form slump as long and as big as him.
You know, I think if you ask the Black Caps they will look at you and shrug their shoulders about how this actually happened?!?
Up the Wahs 2025..
Chur from Chur-chur.
Indians are pride themelf clever and cunning. if you bring another tall cunning clever spinner indians will be at sea. NZ exposed india's game. The key for me rourke presence. 6' 4 tall and smart and clever and on target all the time. He is the real treasure nz got.
Why nz could not win in Srilanka? TIM Southee captaining them. if latham was captain , he would have routed srilanka as well.
Its too much of a stretch had not conditions favored in the 1st test to NZ things would have been different & with India batting decline was also one the reason..
Win the toss
In the meantime, pak beat eng, video???
Yeah, just wait for them to have a captain who is 'okay' with loosing once in 12 years.
