IND vs NZ: India Gifts Match to New Zealand After Batting Collapse; Kohli, Rana Fights in Vain

  • India lost to New Zealand by 50 runs in the match at Indore's Ahilyabai Holkar Stadium, conceding the series 2-1.
  • Chasing 337, India managed only 250 runs after a poor start with both openers dismissed cheaply.
  • Rohit Sharma, Shreyas Iyer, and Nitish Reddy were all dismissed in a similar fashion, contributing to the batting collapse.
  • Virat Kohli scored a century and Harshit Rana added 52 runs, but their efforts were not enough to secure a win.
  • Daryl Mitchell (137 runs) and Glenn Phillips (106 runs) scored centuries for New Zealand, setting a formidable target of 337.

Why It Matters: India's top-order collapse and similar dismissals led to a 50-run loss against New Zealand, gifting them the series.
