Critical analysis: India vs New Zealand Test series 2024
India and New Zealand played a three match test series against each other in October 2024. The series was a nightmare for Indian team as they lost by 3-0 at their home. They were completely whitewashed by Black Caps.
in three matches, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma didn’t stand up to the mark. Other than that, some positives were seen by few batters but that wasn’t sufficient for them to win the match or series.
in bowling department, Washington Sundar, R Ashwin and R Jadega did well on various occasions.
Rishabh Pant was the only player who was performing as per his caliber.
along with CPL, the board has also introduced 6ixty which is an even shorter version. Basically under this format, both teams have 10 overs innings. The rules are quite different from a regular cricket game.
