The last Test of the three-match series between India and New Zealand will be played at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Team India, which has already lost the series, would like to avoid the shame of whitewash by winning this match.
India's performance was poor in the first Test in Bengaluru at home, while the second Test in Pune also saw a poor performance against spin. In such a situation, it will be interesting to see how the Wankhede pitch will behave.
According to the report, the Wankhede pitch will be sporting rather than rank turner. Because in the last match, India had to struggle against the spin attack of the Kiwi team. There will be some grass on the Wankhede pitch, where the spinners are expected to get help from the second day of the match. This means the pitch is likely to suit both spin and pace bowlers.
Santner prevails over Sundar
Washington Sundar took 11 wickets in the Pune Test, but Mitchell Santner's brilliant spell overshadowed his success. The Kiwi all-rounder took 13 wickets in both the innings and completely demolished India's batting line-up. After losing the series, India's aim will now be to avoid whitewash. To remain on top of the World Test Championship (WTC) points table, Team India will have to win this match at any cost.
India lost the series for the first time in 12 years
The Test series defeat against New Zealand is India's first defeat on home soil in 12 years. With this defeat, the team's record of not losing in 18 consecutive series has also been broken. New Zealand captain Tom Latham also registered a big achievement in terms of series win and he became the first captain to win a Test series in India.
