I also thought India will take revenge but its not happened. New zeeland played really specially Santner bowled really. We don’t have seen much run on this wicket. Low scoring pitch and New zeeland apply all the action they have. The result are positively on their side. We don’t have seen any good partnership for both India innings. Though Jaiswal continuing his form but all the except him are not on scoring. That's why India were surviving and lost this match also. Very disappointing for India. Hope they will play better in next.
Losing in the 1st match is acceptable but India's defeat in the 2nd match is difficult to accept. Because despite having such a good squad, India did not win the Test against the New Zealand team. India lost the Test series against New Zealand though the loss was normal because no batsman of the Indian team had any good performance. No batsman was able to score big. Captain Rohit Sharma who returned for zero runs. Kohli returns with just 1 run. If this was the case with the prominent players then the rest should have been worse but they played well from that position. Santner will be discussed because he was the only bowler who took 7 wickets. Only 1 person in a team can destroy the whole team by means of serious bowling. That's why New Zealand easily won the entire series by winning the 2nd Test match.

South Africa team and Bangladesh cricket team reached Chittagong for the second Test after a big defeat against South Africa in Dhaka Test. As compared to the Dhaka Test, runs are always more in the Chittagong Test, it is expected that the two teams will score big runs in the second Test match. We can see some changes in the eleven of the two teams in the case that the spin bowlers get an extra advantage on the Dhaka wicket but the fast bowlers get some extra advantage on the Chittagong wicket. Considering the way Bangladesh was defeated in the first test match, there is not much hope for Bangladesh in the second test match, then Bangladesh will try and Bangladesh will enter the field to win against South Africa.
The second and final Test match is scheduled to start on 29th and if the weather conditions are normal then we will see the start of the game at the appointed time.

What a brilliant showing from New Zealand against India in this Test series. Made me wonder why they aren't producing results like these in T20 or ODI formats and are still rocking pretty solid in Test Cricket, maybe others team have adopted the fast pace of cricket much better than them and they are still stuck with their ideology? Could be anything but this series win from them against a team like India is amazing.
Nice try from Washington though.

Once more lose for the Indian team as we know in the previous game when New Zealand was facing India they gave a very bad defeat to the Indian team and we thought that this time India would take revenge.
However, from the start of the game, New Zealand were looking stronger and this time too India lost the game very badly. New Zealand won the game by 113 runs which is very good for the New Zealand team. In the past days, New Zealand lost to Sri Lanka in the back to back two test matches that was not good for them even though New Zealand had a full team with full of good players such as Kane Williamson and others but still they lost but now it seems that they have come up with some magical powers.

On the other hand, Pakistan struck gold by replacing veterans with bowlers like Ali and Khan. However, they won't qualify for the WTC final while India still has a decent shot which is what matters more at the end of the day.
Here was Pakistan's failure especially in terms of bowling selection where the Pakistan management made quite wrong decisions where Sajid Khan and Noman Ali should have been dropped in the first Test match. If Naseem Shah and Shaheen Afridi had been taken in the first match, Pakistan would not have been defeated in the first test. Moreover, it is the same reason for the whitewash with Bangladesh in the two-match Test series because if Sajid Khan and Noman Ali had been kept in the squad there, Pakistan would not have been defeated with Bangladesh. 
Rohit and Kohli seem like they are past their prime in every format though I could be wrong. Sundar impressed me a lot in this test series, but he is horrendous in the T20 format. Jaiswal keeps performing like a beast.

Pakistani team has two legends at this time. And you all know that I am talking about Sajid Khan and Nouman Ali. Didn't you see the batting and the bowling of these two players. In the first inning Sajid Khan collected 6 wickets first and in batting he was was more surprising I was thinking that they are playing a ODI match may be. Hahaha. Just he hit 4 sixes in his 48 runs journey and also 2 fours. He is the only one who hit most of the boundaries. And just like him Nouman Ali also made 45 runs. And he was also good in batting and bowling. And clear chance is that Pakistan will win this match easily. 
No doubt they are the one responsible of that historical victory because in first test match all we have seen a terrible results from Pakistan team even performing well in batting according to them but as soon as these both spinner enter the team surprisingly match results changed in 180° and england lineup were still in huge shock because they didn't expect such things from Pakistan especially after scoring 800 in first test match but the other guy which I believe is 50 50 contender of that victory was aqib Javed because he was the guy who bring back these two spinner and advice management to build spin friendly track and his tactics works brilliantly and thus Pakistan has successfully won the last match and series by 2-1 too.While on the other hand new Zealand once again beat Indian with a huge margin and that really disappointing but I think management were making few experiment so that why we have some unstability in team currently ongoing.
In the second innings when England was batting, it was looking as if Pakistani pacers just came here to do fielding because only Saim Ayub, Sajid Khan and Noman Ali bowled and as usual Noman Ali and Sajid Khan both used to pick wickets and England got the lead of just 36 runs that was chased by the Pakistan team in their second innings.
After a long time, the Pakistan team performed like this in test matches. In the next some time, another series of Pakistan is coming against Australia in which Babar Azam and Naseem Shah will come back to play those games as well.
Yes we saw that when the England team came to bat in the second innings they were all out for just 112 runs. Pakistan's two spin bowlers have been the biggest contributors behind England being bowled out for so few runs. Sajid Khan and Noman Ali's bowling performance seems to have made Pakistan a spin-friendly pitch against England. Sajid Khan gave a great bowling performance in the second test match and he was man of the match in that match. Sajid Khan also had a good bowling performance in the third Test match even he took four wickets in this match. His other teammate, spin bowler Noman Ali took six wickets basically these two bowlers dismissed all the England batsmen.After a long time, the Pakistan team performed like this in test matches. In the next some time, another series of Pakistan is coming against Australia in which Babar Azam and Naseem Shah will come back to play those games as well.

The series against Australia might not be easy for Pakistan as Australia is much stronger than England. But if the series against Australia is held at Pakistan's home ground, they might get the advantage of spinners there. 
Excellent decision from Indian selectors in selecting Abhimanyu Easwaran for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. It is very rare for them to select someone who has zero backing from the power centers. A while back, they selected T Natarajan, but then he vanished from the scene in quick time. I hope that Abhimanyu doesn't end up like that. Also, happy with the inclusion of Harshit Rana and Nitish Kumar Reddy. These two were performing consistently in domestic cricket for some time.
Excellent performance by Pakistani team especially their bowlers. And in bowlers their are two names which are shining at this time and their names are Sajid Khan and Nouman Ali. In the first innings Sajid Khan collected 6 wickets and Nouman Ali collected 3 wickets and in the second innings Sajid Khan collected to 4 wickets and Nouman Ali collected 6 wickets. Means these two players destroyed the England team and due to them Pakistan was able to win this match. Excellent played Pakistan. I hope they will continue this performance in the future too.

In some past series of England in this year, Ben Stokes was known as a Baseball hard player as he was hitting shots and playing really in an amazing manner and he decided to take the rest that is why he has not even played the T20 World Cup and decided to come back and how poor come back because of the Pakistan players.
Pakistan won two consecutive tests and won the series at the same time. In this game, Ben Stokes did not even bowl because he knew he was not fit and Pakistan batsmen were in the striking mode.

Of course, the New Zealand team is powerful in its match, beating India at the Indian ground. Bowler Mitchell Santner played the main role of New Zealand team to win this match. He gave the best bowling performance in this match. Although his overs had a higher run rate, he took the highest number of wickets. A total of 6 wickets have been collected, and the wickets are aggressive batsman Rohit Sharma Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jayswal these three batsmen are in the top order. And as the first physical trio of the attacking department fell, the Indian team began to tremble, and more wickets continued to fall, and finally the Indian team lost at home by 113 runs.
Yes that is right that New Zealand win over India on their home ground was very impressive. Mitchell Santner excellent bowling performance helped New Zealand win. By the way he gave away a lot of runs Santner took 6 important wickets including top Indian players Rohit Sharma Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal. This weakened India batting lineup. When these three key batsmen got out early Indian team struggled. As a result India lost match by 113 runs which is significant margin. Santner performance made all the difference showing how skilled and important he is to New Zealand success. 
India lost two consecutive matches, the first match was by 8 wickets and the second match was by 113 runs. Indian team fans never expected such a bad performance of Indian team on their home ground, although every team is strong at their home ground, India team was helpless against the bowling and batting of New Zealand team. Because India's batting performance is not good in bowling, the New Zealand team won the Test series. As the final third is unlikely to perform under pressure, a win for the Indian team will ultimately save some of their reputation. Because there is no possibility of Indian team winning on the soil of the country so far, but let's see how the Indian team can perform in the third match.
In the second innings of this second match, India was defeated by one bowler, Mitchell Santner who single-handedly picked up six wickets for the first three top-order batsmen who were the heart of India's run-scoring team.
India losses to New Zealand are surprising especially at home. New Zealand bowling and batting were too strong. India batting failed badly. Mitchell Santner amazing performance taking six wickets hurt India badly. India top batsmen could not cope with him. India can not win series now but winning the last match would save some face. Can India bounce back under pressure? Their performance in the final match will show if they can regain some credibility. I hope they will make a good comeback and show their power to New Zealand In the second innings of this second match, India was defeated by one bowler, Mitchell Santner who single-handedly picked up six wickets for the first three top-order batsmen who were the heart of India's run-scoring team.

The New Zealand team won the second test match by 113 runs, congratulations to the New Zealand team, they played brilliantly on Indian soil. But the Indian team must express a lot of regret here that they could not show this performance against New Zealand with the performance they have played in the previous matches. As a result of the series, New Zealand already won the series by two matches, but it must be a pity for India that they lost at their home ground. However, the New Zealand team batted well from the start and their bowling lines were excellent, due to which they managed to keep India under control. Man of the match was adjudged today by Mitchell Santner who had a brilliant bowling performance picking up 6 wickets. But anyway I say India must take good decisions for the next match, and try to win even if it's a series match or else they will be a whitewash of the Test series.

Nice try from Washington though.
No one could have imagined that a team like New Zealand would beat India at India's own venue to secure a Test series win. New Zealand have secured the series win with one match remaining in the three-match Test series. New Zealand defeated India by a huge margin of 8 wickets in Bangalore and by a huge margin of 113 runs in Pune. It is not easy for Indian fans to imagine that New Zealand, ranked number 5 in Tests, will ensure number one India a series win at their own venue like this. The failure of India's top order is considered to be one of the main reasons for the defeat in this Test series. Nice try from Washington though.
The second Test game between India and New Zealand is ended. In the first match New Zealand defeated India and in this match too, India was defeated 2-0 continues. New Zealand batsmen scored 259 runs in the first innings. In which the most runs were from Devon Conway scored 76 runs brilliant inning. then Rachin scored 65 runs Ravindra had the highest number of runs by the NZ batsmen in the first innings. Shubman and Yashasvi started well but other player's didn't. NZ side Tom Latham had the most runs among the New Zealand batsmen scored 86 runs After that Glenn Phillips scored 48 runs off 82 balls. Indian batsmen Yashasvi was the top scorer with 77 runs off 65 balls. Santner doing his job best took 6 wickets. India lose this game by big 113 runs margin and lost the series after a long time in India.
India lost this match too due to poor performance of their batsmen. In the first match as well, we saw erratic performances from the Indian batsmen. And due to bad batting, India lost the first match too. In the second match also we do not see any improvement in the performance of the Indian batsmen. India scored only 156 runs in the first innings and India scored only 245 runs in the second innings. India lost by 113 runs.
New Zealand won the first two of the 3-match series. Since the series was India's home series, I thought New Zealand team would not be able to take advantage in this series. But the Indian batsmen failed to bat well against the New Zealand bowlers. If the Indian batsmen continue to bat so erratically and weakly in the third match as well, then India will lose the last match of the series as well.
If India can meet the target of 359 runs today, then they will win this match today. Moreover, if India does not win this match today then they will definitely lose the series and New Zealand team will win the series. We have seen that New Zealand team won the first match in a great way, and they still have the highest chances to win the second test match as well. On the third day, India scored 184 runs and lost 7 wickets. Indian team batsmen are batting under a lot of pressure at the moment. I think they will be all out very soon. India still needs to collect 175 runs to win, moreover they don't have good batsmen and New Zealand team has good bowling line, so they will all out India very soon today and win the series.
India is in danger, they can lose this game too, they have to make more than 150 runs while they have just three wickets left but the good thing is that they can make it if they will play slowly and would not try to play fast and push it too hard. If they play with patience then can make it to victory as two days are left in this test match.
However the New Zealand bowlers have other plans, they are on fire and I think they will not allow Indian team to chase this score. It was another bad innings for the Indian team losing 7 wickets and making only 200 runs.
Excellent performance by Pakistani team especially their bowlers. And in bowlers their are two names which are shining at this time and their names are Sajid Khan and Nouman Ali. In the first innings Sajid Khan collected 6 wickets and Nouman Ali collected 3 wickets and in the second innings Sajid Khan collected to 4 wickets and Nouman Ali collected 6 wickets. Means these two players destroyed the England team and due to them Pakistan was able to win this match. Excellent played Pakistan. I hope they will continue this performance in the future too.
I think behind this performance of Pakistan, there is a lot of effort of a legend team management Aqib Javed. Aqib Javed was the one who included such brilliant spin talented player's Naman Ali and Sajid Khan in the team and Aqib Javed had said that I see how the England team wins on the spin created pitches in Pakistan and the formula has been proven perfectly Pakistan took home advantage very much. In the first match, England scored 800 plus and lost only seven wickets, but In the second and third Test match, he giving 40 wickets for only 814 runs. now It is interesting to see how these two spinners Sajid and Naman Ali perform in next test series.

Could also be the team form. India was doing much better in ODIs than they have done on this test series. This is a full Indian team and had hoped their second innings be as good as the 2nd innings in the 1st test but the 2nd innings for both the teams turned out to be the low scoring one. But even at such crease, New Zealand performed better and won the series before a match being played.
It would be one of the worst series India had in home ground for decades. They need to win the last test to save themselves from being white washed. After the series India is going to South Africa for T20s, that would test the teams overall performance.
