Bengaluru, India: Will Young and Rachin Ravindra put on an unbroken 75 to guide New Zealand to a first Test win in India for 36 years, by eight wickets, on day five of the rain-hit match in Bengaluru.
Chasing a tricky 107 on a rain-delayed day, New Zealand lost skipper Tom Latham without scoring and Devon Conway for 17 before Young and Ravindra guided the visitors to 110-2 in the first session and a 1-0 lead in the three-match series.
First-innings centurion Ravindra, a wristy left-hander, looked comfortable as he hit six fours in his 46-ball stay.
Young hit the winning boundary, one of his seven fours, as his New Zealand teammates exchanged hugs in the pavilion. He also hit one six, while facing 76 balls.
It was New Zealand's third Test victory in India after their first in 1969 at Nagpur and a second at Mumbai in 1988.
