New Zealand Sweeps India in Historic Test Win

New Zealand achieved a historic 3-0 Test series whitewash against India, marking the first time India has been swept at home since 2000. The third match, held at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium, saw New Zealand win by 25 runs, with Ajaz Patel playing a pivotal role by taking 6-57 in the second innings and becoming the most successful overseas bowler at a single Test venue in India. Despite Rishabh Pant's valiant 64-run effort, India's batting line-up crumbled, with Ajaz Patel exploiting the conditions to dismiss key players like Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill. The series win is significant for New Zealand, as it ends India's streak of 18 successive home series victories and elevates New Zealand in the World Test Championship standings.
