After losing the Pune Test match by 113 runs, India has lost the Test series against New Zealand for the first time.
The Indian team has suffered an unfortunate Test series defeat at the hands of New Zealand on home soil, which is India’s first Test series defeat at home in 12 years. New Zealand won the Pune Test match by 113 runs, taking an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match Test series.
After this defeat, India’s hopes of reaching the final of the ongoing World Test Championship (WTC) have suffered a severe blow. However, India can still make it to the WTC finals, but now it is not going to be easy for Team India.
On the other hand, after India’s crushing defeat in the Test series against New Zealand after a long time, captain Rohit Sharma has reacted regarding the WTC. Rohit says that it is too early to think about it now.
Rohit Sharma gave a big statement
Let us tell you that in the press conference organized after New Zealand lost the Pune Test, Rohit Sharma said – It is too early to think about WTC. I guess I’m just sad because we lost the game.
Rohit further said- I would just say this, I cannot think about what is going to happen next and whether it can affect our chances and all those things. I think we couldn’t play well in both these matches and that’s sad. We lost the series. This is clearly painful.
On the other hand, if we give you information about this series, the Kiwi team has taken an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series by winning the first two matches of the series. So now the last match of this series will be played at the historic Wankhede Cricket Stadium in Mumbai from November 1, 2024. It will be worth watching whether Team India is able to make a comeback in this match or not?
