Historic Win: New Zealand Defeats India on Home Soil for First Time in 36 Years

Bengaluru, India – In a remarkable turn of events, New Zealand defeated the Indian cricket team by 8 wickets in the first Test match at Bengaluru, marking their first Test victory on Indian soil in 36 years.

Chasing a target of 107 runs, New Zealand achieved their goal with ease, finishing at 108 for 2 on the final day of the match. This decisive win comes on the heels of a disappointing performance from the Indian team, which posted a mere 46 runs in their first innings—the lowest score recorded by India at home in Test history.

The victory gives New Zealand a 1-0 lead in the three-match series, putting pressure on India to recover as they head into the second Test. The Indian team will be eager to address their shortcomings and bounce back in the upcoming matches, as they aim to level the series against a confident New Zealand side.
