India National Cricket Team Vs New Zealand National Cricket Team

India National Cricket Team Vs New Zealand National Cricket Team

India National Cricket Team Vs New Zealand National Cricket Team: The Indian cricket team, led by Rohit Sharma, is making to protect its honor as it faces New Zealand in the third and final Test at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai, starting November 1. With an 18-series winning streak devastated and a daunting 2-0 series deficit, India now fights to evade its first-ever clean sweep in a home Test series. New Zealand captain Tom Latham won the toss and elected to bat first on a rank turner.

India National Cricket Team vs New Zealand National Cricket Team Live Score, 3rd Test Day 2

Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin shared seven wickets as New Zealand slumped to 171/9 in their second innings on Day 2 of the ongoing third Test in Mumbai. Having taken a 28-run first innings lead, Indian bowlers started aggressively, with Akash Deep uprooting Tom Latham’s stumps straightaway. The Kiwis were three down for 44 before Will Young and Daryl Mitchell arrested the slide with a 50-run attitude for the fourth wicket. However, the spin duo of Jadeja and Ashwin wreaked havoc on the New Zealand batting line-up to put India in the driver’s seat and avoid a series of whitewash. With just one wicket to take on Day 3 morning, Indian bowlers would like to wrap things up as quickly as possible before easily chasing the target. New Zealand are currently leading by 143 runs.

India vs New Zealand Live: Interesting fact about Jadeja’s fifer

Ravindra Jadeja’s 5/65 was his 14th fiver-wicket haul. Thus, he equaled Late Bishan Singh Bedi for most fifers by an Indian left-arm spinner in Tests. Another interesting fact is that the number of wickets table by Jadeja and Bedi in these five-wicket hauls is the same – 76.
