New Zealand Wins Historic 3-0 Whitewash Over India in Test Series

New Zealand's Tom Latham expressed his shock and pride after his team inflicted a 3-0 whitewash over India in their own backyard. The unprecedented series win is a testament to the visiting side's determination and collective effort.

"We're lost for words a little bit in terms of what's happened over the last three days, but also the last sort of three weeks," Latham said. "I'm really proud of the group," he added.

New Zealand's Resilient Effort against the Hosts

New Zealand arrived in India with a crippled batting lineup, having lost their senior-most batter Kane Williamson to an injury. The visiting side's bowlers, however, made the most of the conditions, dismissing India for 46 in the first innings.

"I think that wicket in Bangalore was a pretty tricky one and I think our seamers did a fantastic job in terms of what we were able to achieve there," Latham said. The quicks continued to torment the Indian batsmen throughout the series.

Key Factors behind New Zealand's Success

  1. Adaptation: Latham's team showed remarkable adaptability, adjusting to the conditions and playing to their strengths.
  2. Strong Bowling Frontline: The visiting side's bowlers consistently troubled the Indian batsmen, making it difficult for them to cope.
  3. Collective Effort: Every member of the team contributed to the win, with no one person taking centre stage.

Captain Latham's Reflections

"It's been a massive achievement and I think after the first one it was obviously pretty special the second one – to win a series you know was even more special," Latham said. "We'll celebrate as a group together tonight and the next couple of days before we head home," he added.
