The cricketing world is gearing up for an exciting two-match Test series between India and New Zealand, starting on October 16th at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium.
India, riding high on their recent success, enters the series as the clear favorites. Their dominant performance against Bangladesh in their last Test series has solidified their position at the top of the World Test Championship (WTC) standings.
While the two teams have a long and storied rivalry, New Zealand has struggled to find success on Indian soil. Their last victory in India came in 1988, and since then, they have faced 18 consecutive defeats.
New Zealand’s recent 0-2 loss to Sri Lanka has further dented their hopes of qualifying for the WTC final. However, the upcoming series against India offers them a chance to redeem themselves and revive their campaign.
The challenge for New Zealand will be to overcome India’s formidable home record and their own inconsistency in Test matches. India, on the other hand, will be looking to extend their dominance and maintain their position at the top of the WTC.
As the two teams prepare to battle it out, cricket fans can expect a thrilling series filled with high-intensity cricket and intense competition.
