Incredible three weeks for New Zealand cricket. Started with the 58-run win v India by Sophie Devine’s team in Dubai in their tournament opener at Women’s #T20WorldCup. NZ went on to win the Cup. Now Tom Latham’s side clinches an improbable men’s Test-series win on Indian soil.
Fitting that a good catch sealed New Zealand’s momentous Test-series victory over India in India. #INDvNZ
