The action-packed four days in Bengaluru reached its climax as Kiwi openers Tom Latham and Devon Conway took to the crease, needing 107 runs for victory. Latham faced Jasprit Bumrah, who struck gold on just the second delivery of the day, dismissing him. Will Young and Conway then kept the scoreboard moving, hitting occasional boundaries. A crucial moment came when Bumrah returned to claim Conway, leaving New Zealand at 43/2 in 13 overs. With Rachin Ravindra joining Young, the Black Caps advanced to 62/2 in 16 overs, needing just 45 runs to win.
The duo continued to build momentum, adding 59 runs as New Zealand needed just 13 more to win. As lunch approached, they required only nine runs, leaving the crowd and the Indian side feeling dejected. Ultimately, Young hit the winning runs, securing an eight-wicket victory for New Zealand and a 1-0 lead in the Test match series.

An ordinary New Zealand team (with no statpadlers), ranked 6th by the ICC, defeated an overconfident @BCCI team, ranked 2nd with a so-called heavy bowling and batting lineup, on their home soil. It’s a shameful defeat. #INDvsNZ #Bangloretest
