IND vs NZ: The New Zealand cricket team has a golden opportunity to achieve what other teams could not do in India for the last 12 years. After winning the IND vs NZ 1st Test match, the Kiwis have a stronghold in the IND vs NZ 2nd Test match as well. If New Zealand are able to win the second Test match, then they will break team India’s winning run in Test cricket at home. On that note, let us check out when was the last time India lost a Test series at home.
Team India Test record at home
The last time India lost a Test series at home was in 2012. Since then, India has played 18 Test series and two standalone Tests (against Bangladesh and Afghanistan, which resulted in wins for India). In those 18 series, India are undefeated, winning 42 Tests, drawing 7, and losing just 5 Tests.
Who defeated team India in a Test series in India?
Late in 2012, England toured India for a four-match Test series. India won the first Test by 9 wickets, and it seemed that the hosts would continue the dominance at home. However, in the next two Tests in Mumbai and Kolkata, England inflicted humiliating defeats on the hosts to take a 2-1 lead heading into the final Test.
India couldn’t avoid England from winning the series as the game ended in a draw, with England scripting a famous away series win in India, a place many have considered the toughest challenge in Test cricket.
