new zealand cricket team
Test series between India and New Zealand are being organized. The Indian team has faced defeat in the first two matches of this three-match Test series. With this, after a long wait of 12 years, a team defeated India in the test series at home. New Zealand captain Tom Latham is one of the few captains to have achieved such a feat. Team India was last defeated by team England in the home test series in 2012. After that defeat against England, now New Zealand has ended the dominance of team India. In the last 24 years, that is, after the year 2000, only four captains have defeated the Indian team in the home test series. Please let us know when and which captain did this.
Team India lost after 24 years
Team India is now 2-0 behind in this Test series against New Zealand. Earlier in the year 2012, the Indian team was defeated 2-1 by the England team in the 4-match test series. At that time the captaincy of England was in the hands of Alastair Cook. The captain of the Indian team was MS Dhoni. Earlier, the Indian team was defeated 2-1 by the Australian team in the 4-match test series. At the time Australia was being captained by Adam Gilchrist. The captain of the Indian team was Sourav Ganguly. Four years earlier, i.e. in the year 2000, the Indian team was defeated by the South African team. Hansie Cronje was the captain of South Africa at the time. Sachin Tendulkar captained the Indian team. Team India was swept by South Africa in that two-match Test series.
New Zealand has a chance to make a clean sweep
Now New Zealand has a chance to sweep team India in this test series being played against the Indian team. Team India was last swept by South Africa in 2000. The last match of the series will be played in Mumbai from November 1. This will be an important match for the Indian team. Team India may have lost this Test series but captain Rohit Sharma would like to win or draw that match so that Team India can survive a clean sweep.
