New Zealand Bowlers' Consistency Lead To Breakthroughs, Says Virat Kohli

By IANS News June 24, 2021 • 13:06 PM View: 1626

Indian skipper Virat Kohli called New Zealand a structured side which has extremely fit bowlers who bowl consistently over a long period of time. The New Zealand bowling attack has been successful in dismissing Indian batting for under 200 on four occasions in the last six innings.

India, who managed to score only 217 in the first innings of World Test Championship final, were dismissed for 170 in the second innings on Wednesday. The target of 139 was chased by the Kiwis for the loss of just two wickets.
