How often do we hear that India lost a home match? It happened quite a long time ago, and New Zealand have done it after so many years. Also, New Zealand defeated India in a home test 36 years ago, and they outclassed India.

The India vs New Zealand 1st Test started with Day 1 being washed away by rain. India won the toss and opted to bat first. New Zealand wrapped up Indian innings for just 46 runs and that became the lowest total of Indian team in India.

New Zealand didn’t let go of the advantage and scored over 400 runs in their first Innings. India then batted the way they are known to bat and recovered the deficit but the second new ball wrote the story of their second collapse in the same test. India managed to get a lead of 106 and New Zealand covered it with just losing two wickets.

Along with New Zealand, Pakistan won a home test after 1300+ days defeating England.
