The win in Bengaluru was New Zealand’s only third on Indian soil in 37 matches. Sunday’s win for the Kiwis came after 36 years. Before this, the John Wright-led team beat India by 136 runs at Wankhede in Mumbai in 1988. New Zealand’s first-ever Test win in India was in 1969 when Graham Dowling captained the side and won by 167 runs in Nagpur.
