India Today
New Zealand dressing room went into celebration mode when Ross Taylor hit the winning runs vs India to help his team become the first-ever World Test Championship winners in Southampton on Wednesday.
Kane Williamson-led New Zealand became Test cricket's first official world champion as they defeated India by eight wickets in the inaugural World Test Championship (WCT) final on Wednesday after losing successive one-day finals. New Zealand have been to the semi-final of the 50-over World Cup eight times and lost the last two finals, in heartbreaking fashion to England on the boundary countback rule after the 2019 decider was tied. Throughout those setbacks, New Zealand have continued to play in a spirit sometimes derided as "nice guy" cricket.More Related News
