The third and final Test match of the series will be played at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai from November 1.
3rd test Ind vs Nz (current company), Sports Desk: Team India lost 2-0 in the three-Test series played against New Zealand at home. With this, team India’s 18-series winning streak at home since 2012 also ended. The third and final Test match of this series will begin on November 1 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The Indian team will enter this test match to regain the lost morale. It is also expected that both teams can make some changes in this test match.
This series was disappointing for India.
The Indian team’s current series against New Zealand has been disappointing. Before the start of the series, no one had predicted that Team India would perform like this. Before New Zealand, India had easily defeated Bangladesh 2-0 in the two-Test series. In that series, not only the Indian team’s batsmen performed brilliantly but the bowlers also wreaked havoc. In the series against New Zealand, the team’s players are performing well, but the batting turned out to be a failure. So team India has not lost any series after 2012.
Captain Rohit Sharma said this after the defeat in the second test match
Captain Rohit Sharma termed the Indian team’s defeat in two consecutive Test matches against New Zealand as disappointing. He said that while we were batting we couldn’t score enough to challenge the opposing team. This has resulted in two consecutive losses for the team. Captain Rohit Sharma said that none of us expected such a performance but sometimes it happens just the opposite of what you think. Rohit Sharma said the team repeated the same mistakes in both Test matches. Whose consequences had to be suffered.
We couldn’t take advantage of our opportunities.
Rohit Sharma said we didn’t take advantage of some special opportunities. We were unable to respond to those challenges. I don’t think we batted well enough to score runs. You have to take 20 wickets to win. Yes, but the hitters will also have to put runs on the board. It wasn’t a field where a lot of things happened. We just didn’t hit well. If we had been a little closer in the first innings, things might have been a little different. We want to do well in Wankhede and try to win that test. This is a collective failure. I’m not someone who blames just the hitters or the pitchers. We will come to Wankhede with better intentions, better ideas and better methods.
