New Zealand beat India by 8 wickets
India vs New Zealand 1st Test Day 5 Highlights: New Zealand recorded their first Test win on Indian soil after 36 years, defeating the hosts by eight wickets on the fifth and final day of the opening encounter.
The Black Caps now lead the three-Test series 1-0. Requiring 107 to win on the final day, New Zealand survived a hostile opening spell from ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah (2/29 in 8 overs) before Will Young (48 not out) and Rachin Ravindra (39 not out) added 75 runs for the third wicket to take the team to the win in 27.4 overs.
The Kiwis’ last win on Indian soil came at the Wankhede in Mumbai way back in 1988 when they thrashed India by 136 runs in the second Test. India had won that three-Test series 2-1.
